Subject: [PATCH 1/1] OvmfPkg/README: Update the network build flags
Date: Mon, 10 Jun 2019 14:55:09 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190610065509.19573-1-glin@suse.com> (raw)
The following network build flags changed due to the inclusion of
NetworkPkg/Network.fdf.inc.
HTTP_BOOT_ENABLE -> NETWORK_HTTP_BOOT_ENABLE
TLS_ENABLE -> NETWORK_TLS_ENABLE
This commit also adds NETWORK_ALLOW_HTTP_CONNECTIONS to reflect the
change in OvmfPkg/OvmfPkg*.dsc.
