^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  7) The nomenclature EFI and UEFI are used interchangeably in this document.

^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  9) Although the tools below are _not_ needed for building the kernel,
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 10) the needed bootloader support and associated tools for x86_64 platforms
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 11) with EFI firmware and specifications are listed below.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 12) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 13) 1. UEFI specification:  http://www.uefi.org

^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 44) - If some or all EFI runtime services don't work, you can try following
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 45)   kernel command line parameters to turn off some or all EFI runtime
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 46)   services.

^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 53) - If the EFI memory map has additional entries not in the E820 map,
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 54)   you can include those entries in the kernels memory map of available
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 55)   physical RAM by using the following kernel command line parameter.
