Subject: [kvm-unit-tests PATCH 0/6] Initial x86_64 UEFI support
Date: Fri,  2 Jul 2021 13:48:14 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210702114820.16712-1-varad.gautam@suse.com> (raw)

This series brings EFI support to a reduced subset of kvm-unit-tests
on x86_64. I'm sending it out for early review since it covers enough
ground to allow adding KVM testcases for EFI-only environments.

EFI support works by changing the test entrypoint to a stub entry
point for the EFI loader to jump to in long mode, where the test binary
exits EFI boot services, performs the remaining CPU bootstrapping,
and then calls the testcase main().

Since the EFI loader only understands PE objects, the first commit
introduces a `configure --efi` mode which builds each test as a shared
lib. This shared lib is repackaged into a PE via objdump.

Commit 2-4 take a trip from the asm entrypoint to C to exit EFI and
relocate ELF .dynamic contents.

Commit 5 adds post-EFI long mode x86_64 setup and calls the testcase.

Commit 6 patches out some broken tests for EFI. Testcases that refuse
to build as shared libs are also left disabled, these need some massaging.
