Thanks for the patch. But please consider carefully what you're doing: in the original code, the entire DRAM region is added, and subsequently split up so the part that overlaps with the FD can be registered with different attributes. After your patch, we carefully isolate the region that overlaps the FD, and subsequently register it with the exact same attributes, which means we didn't have to isolate it in the first place. My point is really that you can just remove lines 124 - 189 instead. _______________________________________________ edk2-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.01.org/mailman/listinfo/edk2-devel
