[PATCH v1 0/3] OvmfPkg: Use QemuKernelLoaderFs to read cmdline/initrd

["Dov Murik" <dovmurik@linux.ibm.com>]

In order to support measured SEV boot with kernel/initrd/cmdline, we'd
like to have one place that reads those blobs; in the future we'll add
the measurement and verification in that place.

We already have a synthetic filesystem (QemuKernelLoaderFs) which holds
three files: "kernel", "initrd", and "cmdline".  The kernel is indeed
read from this filesystem in LoadImage; but the cmdline (and the length
of initrd) are read from QemuFwCfgLib items.

This patch series modifies GenericQemuLoadImageLib to read cmdline (and
the initrd size) from the QemuKernelLoaderFs synthetic filesystem, thus
removing the dependency on QemuFwCfgLib.

Note that X86QemuLoadImageLib is not modified, because it contains a
QemuLoadLegacyImage() which reads other items of the QemuFwCfg which are
not available in QemuKernelLoaderFs.  Since we don't want to support the
legacy boot path in the future measured SEV boot, we leave
X86QemuLoadImageLib as-is (except for a comment addition in patch 3) and
will force use for GenericQemuLoadImageLib in the measured SEV boot
implementation.

Relevant discussion threads start in:

To test this on x86_64, I forced the use of GenericQemuLoadImageLib
using the following local patch:

I tested boot with QEMU and OVMF with the following QEMU arguments:

  -kernel a
  -kernel a -initrd b
  -kernel a -cmdline c
  -kernel a -initrd b -cmdline c

(and also without -kernel)
