Subject: [RFC PATCH 01/28] OvmfPkg/Sec: Enable cache early to speed up booting
Date: Mon, 19 Aug 2019 21:35:47 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <6a37c84f4989304b21205d6263c6491f81da3233.1566250534.git.thomas.lendacky@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1566250534.git.thomas.lendacky@amd.com>
From: Tom Lendacky <thomas.lendacky@amd.com>
Currently, the OVMF code relies on the hypervisor to enable the cache
support on the processor in order to improve the boot speed. However,
with SEV-ES, the hypervisor is not allowed to change the CR0 register
to enable caching.
Update the OVMF Sec support to enable caching in order to improve the
boot speed.
