Right. This port is used for MIPS64-based UEFI platforms and
Loongson-3's linux boot interface are supported.
The target ABI is standard mips n64, no-abicalls is enabled and
long-jumps is disabled for kernel and modules.

Currently, The MIPS is not included in official UEFI spec, but Lemote
will do it. Looks many MIPS cpus are used
for embedded platforms, so i think they are more use of lightweight
firmware (e.g. u-boot, pmon ...)

The Lemote (http://www.lemote.com) is a MIPS OEM, It is porting UEFI
(EDK) for MIPS-based desktop and
high-performance server.
