Sandbox is not a real architecture, but within U-Boot it is real enough. We should not need to pretend it is x86 or ARM anywhere in the code.
Also we want to be able to locate the sandbox app using a single filename, 'bootsbox.efi', to avoid needing tests to produce different files on each host architecture.
Drop the confusing use of host architecture and just let sandbox be sandbox.
As I already wrote in https://lore.kernel.org/u-boot/ae1cf1fa-766e-46a0-8ef9-2c2c7af73d9e@gmx.de/ this patch should not be merged.
bootsbx.efi does not exist in the UEFI specification.
If that is of concern I can get it added. Let me know.
Without this patch I can test that shim work and grub are correctly loaded from a distro image. This patch makes the sandbox misbehave.
Why don't you do that with QEMU?
If we want sandbox to do this, I could add a way for sandbox to select its architecture. But this patch is correct, sorry. It is basically a revert of your patch:
3a0654ecd0d efi_loader: correctly identify binary name
Let me know if you would like a selection mechanism and I'll see what I can do.
