The last status (up to & including comment 12) in <https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1496> was that: (1) 8254TimerDxe would remain a generic driver, with the minimal interrupt controller programming that it needs flattened into it (no dependency on gEfiLegacy8259ProtocolGuid) (2) the 8259InterruptControllerDxe driver (producing gEfiLegacy8259ProtocolGuid) would move under OvmfPkg/Csm. Now, if 8254TimerDxe becomes specific to OvmfPkg, then I think it's not necessary to modify it -- it can continue depending on gEfiLegacy8259ProtocolGuid. Simply move both drivers from PcAtChipsetPkg to OvmfPkg. (Note: *not* to OvmfPkg/Csm). Hao: can you please update <https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1496> accordingly? (If you agree, that is.) Thanks Laszlo _______________________________________________ edk2-devel mailing list edk2-devel@lists.01.org https://lists.01.org/mailman/listinfo/edk2-devel
