Subject: [kvm-unit-tests RFC PATCH 2/3] x86/efi: Retry call to efi exit boot services
Date: Mon, 25 Mar 2024 16:36:22 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240325213623.747590-2-papaluri@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240325213623.747590-1-papaluri@amd.com>

In some cases, KUT guest might fail to exit boot services due to a
possible memory map update that might have taken place between
efi_get_memory_map() and efi_exit_boot_services() calls. As per UEFI
spec 2.10 (Section 7.4.6 EFI_BOOT_SERVICES.ExitBootServices()), we need
to update the memory map and retry call to exit boot
services.
