Hi,

Set "Address    = BASE_4GB - 1" first is to ensure the maximum address value is 
4GB, since APs will be switched to 32 bit before OS, I mean in the original 
implementation.
By the way, in patch 5, only SEV-ES processor keep this limitation, since for 
the generic processors they keep in 64 bit before handing off the process to 
OS, and for those 32-bit processors, they don't need this limitation.

Regards,
Yuanhao

  Hi,

> +  Address    = BASE_4GB - 1;

Why do you set Address here ...

> +  Status = gBS->AllocatePages (
> +                  AllocateMaxAddress,
> +                  EfiReservedMemoryType,
> +                  StackPages+FuncPages,
> +                  &Address
> +                  );

... when it is overridden here anyway?

Otherwise the patch looks good to me.

take care,
  Gerd
