This is a minor release of the EBBR specification. Notable changes since v2.3.0 include changes in the architecture-specific privileged or secure firmware requirements, a few recommendations and clarifications, the addition of version annotations and the usual fixes and references updates.
chapter2: require fmp and on-disk indications when supported Require to set the FMP and "on disk" OsIndicationsSupported bits when in-band firmware update is supported. Signed-off-by: Vincent Stehlé <vincent.stehle@arm.com>
chapter2: all services optional at runtime We are requiring two remaining runtime services at runtime: SetVirtualAddressMap() and ConvertPointer(). Those two services are not strictly required to boot an OS such as Linux for example (see efi=novamap), and their implementation in the firmware can be tricky. Besides, the UEFI specification allows to not implement those services at runtime since version 2.8. Relax our requirements by making those two services explicitly optional at runtime, to go back to what the UEFI specification does now. Signed-off-by: Vincent Stehlé <vincent.stehle@arm.com>
