Title:
[FFe] add loongarch64 OVMF support back to resolute
Status in edk2 package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in edk2-hwe package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Rationale
---
For Ubuntu Resolute, the loongarch64 support has been removed alongside with arm and ia32.
- Debian removed arm + ia32
- Ubuntu removed loongarch64
The rationale of loongarch64 removal is because we do not provide
Ubuntu packages/image for this architecture.
However, I think this is a wrong decision because loongarch64 support
is active in the community (recent architecture) in contrary to ia32
and arm.
EDK2 support for loongarch64 is also active. EDK2 upstream only deprecates arm and ia32. We want support for loongarch64 to allow users to run loongarch64 VM
on Ubuntu Host.
I propose wew bring back the support for loongarch64 to Resolute.
Regression and impact
---
Even if we have the support for loongarch64 in Questing and this is only about
adding it back to Resolute. This is done for a new EDK2 version that might
contain bugs related to this architecture.
