Since we now have EBC support for AArch64, enable it by default
on the QEMU platform.

Please add it to ArmVirtPkg/ArmVirtQemuKernel.dsc as well:
ArmVirtQemuFvMain.fdf.inc is shared between them.

With that,

Any reason for not adding it to the Xen platform as well?

What kind of modules do we expect to come in EBC? Option ROMs perhaps?
In that case, Xen may indeed be irrelevant here (I have no clue about
adding oproms to emulated or assigned devices under Xen, so I can't make
an argument either way.) If we expect general stuff (for example, even
UEFI_APPLICATION modules) to arrive in EBC, then I think Xen would be a
justified addition.

Thanks
Laszlo

Yes, that is the primary purpose, although any DXE/UEFI driver could
be distributed as an EBC module, I suppose (and we have an EBC version
of fat.efi in FatBinPkg)

I remember reading somewhere that EBC was strictly for drivers, not
applications, but I cannot find a reference anymore in the spec.

I wouldn't mind adding it to Xen, but I don't see the point tbh

Thanks,
Ard.

Mainly that I'm cluesless as to how to test it.
More than happy for this one to be thrown away and replaced by
something more useful :)

Current test cases include HelloWorld and apparently the FAT driver.
Unless we start playing with PCI pass-through, I would expect EBC on
the virt platforms would be used mostly for applications/protocols.

I don't insist, I'd just like to avoid the Qemu <-> Xen platform
divergence getting out of hand :) At some point we'll compare those
files in the future, and ask ourselves why EBC (and the rest :)) are
only in Qemu.

Anyway, this should not block the patch; I just figured I'd raise it.

Thanks
Laszlo
