Hi Mike,
The command is:
build -a IA32 -p OvmfPkg/OvmfPkgIa32.dsc -t CLANGPDB -b NOOPT -D DEBUG_ON_SERIAL_PORT
But I obviously needed to add
gEfiMdeModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdCpuStackGuard|TRUE
to OvmfPkgIa32.dsc.
The compiler is clang 12.0.1, because clang 13 is badly broken[1]. It would then crash like this:
HandOffToDxeCore() Stack Base: 0x7FE24000, Stack Size: 0x20000
ASSERT_EFI_ERROR (Status = Invalid Parameter)
ASSERT [DxeCore] DxeMain.c(256): !EFI_ERROR (Status)
As for aligning the array, I can submit a V2 which introduces the ALIGNAS macro. I also like this solution a lot more.
Best wishes,
Vitaly

Hi Vitaly,
Can you please provide some details on the compiler/build command that did not align the array
correctly.
I agree that the GDT must have the correct alignment.
I do not like the idea of unused bytes at the beginning of the array. I would prefer to see
an array that is aligned correctly by declaration.
Mike

UefiCpuPkg maintainers - please respond.
Meanwhile, Vitaly, could you please provide a commit message?
The BZ link is needed, but it's not a substitute.
