Again, these are wrappers to access EFI and not Windows.
EFI uses the Windows x86_64 calling convention. The lin2win may be a
more general naming convention that can be used for some other code (the
NDISwrapper?) in the future. Do you agree?
The SYSV description is wrong as well. SYSV has no calling convention. I
think you mean iABI or iBCS2 ?
Whats wrong with following the pattern of other calls like syscall(...)
and just having eficall() ?
Either that (which is basically his lin2win6), or use wrapper-generators
like we used to do for system calls -- the latter will produce more
efficient code. I don't think it matters.
