Subject: OvmfPkg/XenPlatformPei: Reserve VGA memory region, to boot Linux
X-Git-Tag: edk2-stable201908~18
X-Git-Url: https://git.proxmox.com/?p=mirror_edk2.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=77d35f50080ad8dc1995a79f4056ee0567188c7c

OvmfPkg/XenPlatformPei: Reserve VGA memory region, to boot Linux

Linux panic if the VGA region isn't reserved.

When Linux is booted on EFI system, it expects the memory at 0xa0000 to
_not_ be conventional memory. Otherwise a variable isn't initialised
properly and Linux panic when a virtual console/terminal is asked to be
created.

See for more detail:
