Hello everyone
I want to request

getMemoryMap()
function using assembly language, it gives me as return

Code:
   dd 0 ;No relocations
   dw 0 ;No relocations
   dd 0 ;No relocations
   dw 0 ;No relocations

EFI binaries must be relocatable. Your code has absolute addresses without relocations, so your binary will fail on some PCs.

Code:
        mov rax, [rcx+40]

That's AllocatePages(), not GetMemoryMap().

Code:
        mov rcx, pointerSize ; first argument

Where are the other arguments?

uhm, really?

it's actually a miracle, this thing even got to the function call and getting its result, I'd say, it shouldn't be even started. kudos to EDK2/OVMF for tolerating such an abysmal piece. I got lost, trying to find ImageBase in that mess. you are not supposed to make PE constructing manually. and you can't as can be easily seen. your nasm or whateverasm can do it for you. at least for x64.

if you ask. but don't get offended. the problem is in the whole file. threw it away. learn UEFI, get/make UEFI headers and write your loader in C, because no offense, it didn't work out in assembly with you (and trying to be funny/overly selfconfident in comments doesn't help with writing correct programs). I'd be embarrassed to show such files publicly, even though I think of myself as of a lamer.
