UEFI EDK2 firmware for bhyve with CSM (16-bit BIOS)
UEFI EDK2 firmware for bhyve with CSM 16-bit BIOS support.
From https//github.com/tianocore/tianocore/wiki/UEFI “The Unified Extensible Firmware Interface, or UEFI, specifies the firmware layer between an operating system and platform hardware. UEFI replaces the legacy Basic Input Output System BIOS.”
EDK2 is the project from TianoCore https//tianocore.org that provides “a modern, feature-rich, cross-platform development environment for the UEFI and UEFI Platform Initialization PI specifications.”
It’s open source under the BSD-2-Clause-Patent license.
This port provides an EDK2 firmware build for x86_64 with ‘CSM’ support. CSM is the Compatibility Support Module, compatibility code to allow operating systems which expect a 16-bit BIOS, and which don’t know about UEFI, to boot.
This CSM port provides an older version of EDK2 for use with VMs running operating systems which don’t have UEFI support.
