Hi Simon,

One of the confusing parts of the EFI loader is that it uses u64 for
addresses, whereas the rest of U-Boot typically uses ulong.

You are confusing sandbox virtual addresses (phys_addr_t) with the
physical addresses (EFI_PHYSICAL_ADDRESS) in the UEFI spec.

The EFI specification requires an identity mapping. This means the value
of a EFI_PHYSICAL_ADDRESS must be usable as a pointer.

The sandbox virtual addresses are not usable as pointers on the sandbox
and hence cannot be used for EFI_PHYSICAL_ADDRESS.

EFI_PHYSICAL_ADDRESS is a 64bit type.

The only useful place for sandbox virtual addresses is in the CLI. We
should get rid of them anywhere else to avoid further confusion.


There is a case on 32-bit machines where phys_addr_t can be larger than
32 bits, but this is very much the exception. Also, such machines have
mostly faded away and generally don't make use of EFI.

I am not sure how true this statement is with LPAE etc. In any case, I
don't want us to convert to ulong, there's no reason to break things
for platforms we can't test.  So please drop this patch

Thanks

So in the interests of consistency, update the memory functions to use
ulong in most cases.

The EFI specification defines the argument parameter Pages of
AllocatePages() as being UINTN. So we should use efi_uintn_t here.
