Ping. How go forward with this? I've posted it as RFC because I expected a more controversial discussion. But seems everybody agrees this is a step into the right direction. So just merge this as-is? Yes, it passed CI (https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/pull/2542). take care, Gerd -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
