[v5] Specific platform to run OVMF in Xen PVH and HVM guests

[edk2-devel] [PATCH v5 35/35] OvmfPkg/OvmfXen: use RealTimeClockRuntimeDxe from EmbeddedPkg
Posted by Anthony PERARD 5 years, 3 months ago
A Xen PVH guest doesn't have a RTC that OVMF would expect, so
PcatRealTimeClockRuntimeDxe fails to initialize and prevent the
firmware from finish to boot. To prevent that, we will use
XenRealTimeClockLib which simply always return the same time.
This will work on both Xen PVH and HVM guests.
