I'm setting up a new Jenkins server to do Bhyve builds and run on

Since VS2012 appears to be a supported toolchain, I tried building
OvmfPkgX64 with it (I'm also planning on testing VS2013, VS2015, VS2017
and VS2019), but it fails with:
Building ...

: warning C4306: 'type cast' : conversion from 'int' to
'SEV_ES_AP_JMP_FAR *' of greater size
I think the compiler is justified to complain here:
7b7508ad784d1 (Tom Lendacky 2020-08-12 15:21:42 -0500 1268) JmpFar =
(SEV_ES_AP_JMP_FAR *) FixedPcdGet32 (PcdSevEsWorkAreaBase);
The proper way to spell such casts is with (UINTN) in the middle.
Can you please file a new BZ?
I've created https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3385
I know the GitHub/Azure system only tests with VS2017 and VS2019: are
there plans to drop the older VS versions, or should they still work?
And would it be considered useful to _check_ that they still work, or
should they be considered unsupported?
I'd suggest dropping them.
Earlier, Ard raised a similar question for gcc too -- IIRC, Ard suggested that
GCC4* be removed. I agree with the idea.
Thanks. If we're ready to go ahead, should I create a patch to remove them?
Do you know what the new minimum version of gcc should then be? I'd like
to run builds with it so we can catch any issues.
Would we remove all VS versions except VS2017 and VS2019, or would we
keep others like VS2015 for now?
