I'm not sure this is required. The reason I added these patches is to
hopefully prevent the compiler from removing the frame pointer. We
adjust the frame pointer in the code, and that is a little sketchy if
the frame pointer isn't being used.
Unfortunately, it can reasonably be argued that the
TemporaryRamSupport PPI definition ultimately makes it unsafe to write
the migration code in C.
I tried reverting both the EmulatorPkg and OvmfPkg patches for
disabling the optimizations, and with my setup there was no impact. I
think there is a good change that we'd be pretty safe to just drop
these two patches to wait and see if someone encounters a situation
that requires it.
Ok, so based on this explanation, do you think I should add info to
the commit message and keep the patches, or just drop them?
Thanks,
