Building with -D SOURCE_DEBUG_ENABLE should cause the EDK Debugger infrastructure to be enabled. This will try to speak a special edk2 specific debug protocol over the serial port on OVMF. I've never been able to do much of anything with it... Maybe this page can help explain -D SOURCE_DEBUG_ENABLE? http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/tianocore/index.php?title=Debug_FAQ -Jordan > Without -D > SOURCE_DEBUG_ENABLE I get a register dump on the qemu monitor and then qemu > exits (as my app terminates).
