Specifically before running lzma uncompress of the main firmware volume. This is needed to make sure caching is enabled, otherwise the uncompress can be extremely slow. Adapt the ASSERTs and MTRR setup in PlatformInitLib to the changes. Background: Depending on virtual machine configuration kvm may uses EPT memory types to apply guest MTRR settings. In case MTRRs are disabled kvm will use the uncachable memory type for all mappings. The vmx_get_mt_mask() function in the linux kernel handles this and can be found here: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/tree/arch/x86/kvm/vmx/vmx.c?h=v6.7.1#n7580 In most VM configurations kvm uses MTRR_TYPE_WRBACK unconditionally. In case the VM has a mdev device assigned that is not the case though. Before commit e8aa4c6546ad ("UefiCpuPkg/ResetVector: Cache Disable should not be set by default in CR0") kvm also ended up using MTRR_TYPE_WRBACK due to KVM_X86_QUIRK_CD_NW_CLEARED. After that commit kvm evaluates guest mtrr settings, which why setting up MTRRs early is important now. Signed-off-by: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@redhat.com>
