Right, we really need to find someone with hours to finish properly integrating OVMF.
Hm, that 'someone' may end up being me¹.
So... from the Xen point of view, what needs doing? There are some things on my TODO list which apply to Qemu/KVM too — most importantly, fixing bootorder handling, which basically involves fixing the general case of NV variable storage for UEFI as discussed. But is there anything Xen-specific that I'm likely to miss?
And on the subject of the NV storage... does -pflash work on qemu-xen, as long as we're not actually running *code* from the device and we're only using it for data storage? Are you content with my stated plan to provide a "disk" image for that, which is something like a 256KiB file on the host side, exposed as a flash device to the guest?
