We've successfully UEFI-booted
- GNU/Linux guest(s) on
- upstream edk2 (*) and
- upstream qemu-system-aarch64 with
  - TCG on x86_64 host,
  - KVM on aarch64 host (**)

(*) Ard's patches for upstream edk2 are in the process of being tested /
merged.

(**) Ard's patches for the upstream host kernel (== KVM) have been...
ugh, not sure... applied to a maintainer tree? Ard? :)

So, it works (as far as I tested it myself on TCG, and heard reports
about it on KVM), but right now you need to apply a handful of pending
patches manually.

We can certainly talk about Aarch64 at the BoF, but then Ard should
co-organize. No good deed goes unpunished, as ever! :)

Cheers,
Laszlo
