[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 1/6] efi_loader: Generate Microsoft PE format compliant images

[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 1/6] efi_loader: Generate Microsoft PE format compliant images

[Bin Meng]

Per Microsoft PE Format documentation [1], PointerToSymbolTable and
NumberOfSymbols should be zero for an image in the COFF file header.
Currently U-Boot is generating *.efi images (eg: helloworld.efi) in
which these two members are not zero.

This updates the build rules to tell linker to remove the symbol
table completely so that we can generate compliant *.efi images.

Looking at the top of the file it is meant both for 32bit and for 64bit
systems:

#if __riscv_xlen == 64
#define SIZE_LONG       8
#define SAVE_LONG(reg, idx)     sd      reg, (idx*SIZE_LONG)(sp)
#define LOAD_LONG(reg, idx)     ld      reg, (idx*SIZE_LONG)(sp)
#define PE_MACHINE      0x5064
#else
#define SIZE_LONG       4
#define SAVE_LONG(reg, idx)     sw      reg, (idx*SIZE_LONG)(sp)
#define LOAD_LONG(reg, idx)     lw      reg, (idx*SIZE_LONG)(sp)
#define PE_MACHINE      0x5032
#endif

But for 32bit and 64bit we cannot use the same values of characteristics
and we need different optional header formats.

For the ARM and the x86 architecture this has resulted in separate files
crt0*.S - one for 32bit, the other for 64bit.

Shouldn't we go the same way for RISC-V?

These values suit 64bit only.

As currently we only have a defconfig for a 64bit system -
ax25-ae350_defconfig - let's merge this patch.

@Bin:
Your "riscv: Add QEMU virt board support" patch series adds a 32bit
board. Please, consider adding a separate 32bit crt0*.S there.

You observation is correct. We should use separate files to support
