It happens to be what I'm already using, and the interface appears quite simple. I am hacking on an Arm OS, and using U-Boot's UEFI support to provide a framebuffer to the booted target. This works very well on hardware (a ROCKPro64 in my case). I've been using EDK2 in QEMU until now, but am experimenting with using U-Boot in QEMU instead to minimise differences between the hardware target and virtualised one. virtio-gpu could work just as well, but in either case there is no U-Boot support. I figure keeping it very simple maximises my chance of success here. Best, Asherah
