Invalid opcode exception(06) while loading network drivers in CamelBack Mountain CRB (Coreboot-4.11 + Uefipayload)

[Noyal Johnson]

Hi,

I am building the coreboot-4.11 with Uefipayload for Camelback Mountain
FSP-based CRB.
I am seperately compiling the Uefipayload in the edk2 tool (version :
uefipayload_202107) downloaded from Mrchromebox in the github and merging
as an ELF executable payload.
The coreboot was succesfully loaded and OS was booted.

In the UEFI shell, when I tried to use network, it was seen that network
controller and stack drivers are not available in the payload.

I have seperataly compiled the network stack drivers in the same edk2 tool
and tried to load at runtime in the UEFI shell along with the network
controller driver provided by Intel.

At first, I loaded network controller driver and the device was detected as
given below
"Intel(R) I210 Gigabit Network Connection"
Later, I tried loading the network stack drivers in the sequence given below
1, SnpDxe.efi
2, MnpDxe.efi
3, ArpDxe.efi
While loading the "ArpDxe.efi", an exception has been occured given below,

!!!! X64 Exception Type - 06 (#UD - Invalid Opcode)
CPU Apic ID - 00000000 !!!!
!!! Cant find image information !!!

I tried loading Uefipayload in which network stack drivers are merged at
compile time, still the result was same.

But, when I tried loading the network stack drivers compiled in same edk2
tool and network controller driver in the actual BIOS present in CRB, all
the network stack drivers was successfully loaded and ethernet was
initilized.

I am suspecting that network stack driver / controller driver is trying to
execute a particular instruction which is not supported in coreboot.
Whether any instruction sets I have to separately enable in coreboot. If
no, what could be the reason for this exception.
