When building with debugging symbols, take the absolute path to the vmlinux binary and add it to the special PE/COFF debug table entry. This allows a debug EFI build to find the vmlinux binary, which is very helpful in debugging, given that the offset where the Image is first loaded by EFI is highly unpredictable. On implementations of UEFI that choose to implement it, this information is exposed via the EFI debug support table, which is a UEFI configuration table that is accessible both by the firmware at boot time and by the OS at runtime, and lists all PE/COFF images loaded by the system. The format of the NB10 Codeview entry is based on the definition used by EDK2, which is our primary reference when it comes to the use of PE/COFF in the context of UEFI firmware.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
