Previous USB keyboard console support commit worked fine on APL real platform, but it has issue on QEMU. This patch further enables USB keyboard console support for QEMU. A new PcdUsbKeyboardPollingTimeout is added. It will be used to control the USB keyboard interrupt transfer polling timeout. For QEMU, it needs a larger number due to timing issue. As part of it, booting from USB device is also enabled by this patch. This patch fixes #30. To test USB keyboard console in QEMU, please first change CONSOLE_IN _DEVICE_MASK in BoardConfig.py to 3, and then add the following in the QEMU command line to add XHCI controller and USB KB: -device qemu-xhci,id=xhci,bus=pcie.0,addr=4 -device usb-kbd,bus=xhci.0 Signed-off-by: Maurice Ma <maurice.ma@intel.com>

Slim Bootloader is an open-source boot firmware solution, built from the ground up to be secure, lightweight, and highly optimized while leveraging robust tools and libraries from the EDK II framework.
What is a Bootloader?
Just like a typical BIOS, Slim Bootloader is the piece of software responsible for initializing the core hardware components of the system when it is powered on, followed by the loading and launching of the desired operating system.
Slim Bootloader offers the flexibility for OEMs, device manufacturers, and hobbyists to isolate, configure, and optimize for the the specific requirements of the system thereby achieving unparalleled boot performance and minimizing firmware footprint.
Supported Platforms
Slim Bootloader currently has support for Apollo Lake based designs including
- UP Squared maker board
- Intel Leaf Hill customer reference design
- MinnowBoard 3 Module
Additionally, Slim Bootloader supports booting a virtual machine via QEMU.
Getting Started
