Chaohong guo 39d54c8765 EFI: Disable RELOC by default temporary
Commit 6085781 replaced __emalloc() with a call to uefi allocate_page()
and allows UEFI FW to allocate memory for hypervisor from high to low
address below 4GB. However, this change triggers an issue (might be
memory corruption), in turn, PXE boot cannot work.

Since root cause the issue might take some time, the PXE boot issue
blocks auto-test, we disable hypervisor relocation by default for the
time being in config option, and users can enable it by themselves. In
the following weeks, if we root cause the issue, we can re-enable
relocation feature.`

Embedded-Hypervisor
###################

This open source embedded hypervisor defines a software architecture for
running multiple software subsystems managed securely on a consolidated
system (by means of a virtual machine manager), and defines a reference
framework Device Model implementation for devices emulation

This embedded hypervisor is type-1 reference hypervisor, running
directly on the system hardware. It can be used for building software
defined cockpit (SDC) or In-Vehicle Experience (IVE) solutions running
on Intel Architecture Apollo Lake platforms. As a reference
implementation, it provides the basis for embedded hypervisor vendors to
build solutions with an open source reference I/O mediation solution,
and provides auto makers a reference software stack for SDC usage.

This embedded hypervisor is able to support both Linux* and Android* as
a Guest OS, managed by the hypervisor, where applications can run.

This embedded hypervisor is a partitioning hypervisor reference stack,
also suitable for non-automotive IoT & embedded device solutions. It
will be addressing the gap that currently exists between datacenter
hypervisors, hard partitioning hypervisors, and select industrial
applications.  Extending the scope of this open source embedded
hypervisor relies on the involvement of community developers like you!
