Jun 1, 2025

June 2025 monthly summary for NVIDIA/edk2-platforms focusing on CPU exception handling in PEI. Addressed a critical correctness issue by fixing CpuExceptionHandlerLib usage for PEI and PEI_CORE, and added a new library instance definition in the DSC to ensure proper CPU exception handling during the PEI phase. This fix mitigates boot-time instability and improves early platform initialization reliability.
