* efi_loader: Add console interfaceAlexander Graf2016-03-151-0/+360
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | One of the basic EFI interfaces is the console interface. Using it an EFI application can interface with the user. This patch implements an EFI console interface using getc() and putc(). Today, we only implement text based consoles. We also convert the EFI Unicode characters to UTF-8 on the fly, hoping that everyone managed to jump on the train by now.

* efi_loader: Add boot time servicesAlexander Graf2016-03-151-0/+781
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When an EFI application runs, it has access to a few descriptor and callback tables to instruct the EFI compliant firmware to do things for it. The bulk of those interfaces are "boot time services". They handle all object management, and memory allocation. This patch adds support for the boot time services and also exposes a system table, which is the point of entry descriptor table for EFI payloads.
