The kernel tries to acquire the UEFI boot framebuffer via find_gop() [1]. It fails for all available results at the pixel_format test at [2]. The firmware only supports the BitBlt() EFI call to read/write framebuffer data. It's a boot service, so it's gone after the kernel initialized. We cannot use it. I've tested with kernel's going back to v6.4. It's always reproducible. To fix this problem, we have modify qemu's OVMF firmware to provide a pixel format and a framebuffer to which we can memcpy(). AFAICT a pixel format of PIXEL_BIT_MASK [3] would do this. [1] https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.8/source/drivers/firmware/efi/libstub/go...
