[edk2] [PATCH v2 3/5] MdePkg/DxeServicesLib: introduce AllocatePeiAccessiblePages routine
Posted by Ard Biesheuvel 7 years, 8 months ago 
Add a routine to DxeServicesLib that abstracts the allocation of memory
that should be accessible by PEI after a warm reboot. We will use it to
replace open coded implementations that limit the address to < 4 GB,
which may not be possible on non-Intel systems that have no 32-bit
addressable memory at all.

Perhaps the #include <Library/HobLib.h> directive could be guarded by
#ifdef MDE_CPU_X64 as well, just for symmetry with the HobLib lib class,
but it's not too important.
