[edk2-devel] Pcd to set Boot0000 at build time

[Hugues Morisset]

Hello,

I wrote a patch that make it possible to set Boot0000 at build time using a
pcd.

For example with build option
`--pcd=gEfiMdeModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdPlatformBootBoot0000=Lshell.efi`,
I can make sure that efi shell will boot first for a newly build firmware
image.

Thanks,
Hugues

Subject: [PATCH] BdsDxe: Add at build user provided Boot0000 entry

When building existing platforms descriptions, it is hard for a user
to choose a default boot option at build time.
This patch adds a Pcd that set Boot0000 entry at boot.
