Ok sorry to confuse things - yes I guess people pick up these threads
midstream. The EFI_SYSTEM_TABLE_POINTER reference is separate from my ACPI
issue. Andrei's code is here (
https://github.com/andreiw/andreiw-wip/blob/master/uefi/DebugPkg/GdbSyms/GdbSyms.c);
he defines a "stub" app/package to reference a handful of key EFI locations
- then uses the symbol map produced by this app to drive loading of other
symbols into gdb via a python script (which executes inside gdb!). His
Python script is here:
https://github.com/andreiw/andreiw-wip/blob/master/uefi/DebugPkg/Scripts/gdb_uefi.py
I was hoping to use this to ease gdb+qemu+ovmf debugging as I didn't have
any symbols...
(main issue: acpi hardware timer isn't running in qemu so my ovmf builds
all hang with a blank screen)
