Only then can we > remove the protocol from EDK2. Its not backwards. edk2 dropping support first would result in break kernels without support for unaccepted memory. Which is why we wait until such kernels are EOL. Linux dropping support first would result in firmware accepting all memory again. So that isn't a good plan. Thats why linux should support the protocol a bit longer, while firmware versions which expect negotiation happening are still in use. take care, Gerd
