[PATCH 2/3] efi: Pass EFI boot memmap struct address to core kernel
Ard Biesheuvel

Thu Aug 13 00:45:09 PDT 2026
The EFI stub already passes a struct efi_boot_memmap populated with the
information of the EFI memory map as a configuration table, and so
passing the physical address, size, descriptor size and descriptor
version via 4 different DT properties is kind of redundant.
Instead, pass the physical address of this struct in memory so that the
kernel can just retrieve the values directly.
Unfortunately, the scheme with four separate properties is boot ABI for
Xen, and so this needs to remain supported. But for the EFI stub itself,
this is just an internal ABI that can be modified.
