Ok, so it sounds like we want to *always* create both mappings but, depending on what we want, to shove down SetVirtualAddressMap a different set. And the 1:1 map will be the optional one which we give SetVirtualAddressMap only when user wants it, i.e. when booting with "efi=1:1_map". Makes sense? -- Regards/Gruss, Boris.
