Hi, Liming:
I found two smbuslib implemented in below path:

1.  edk2-platforms\Silicon\Intel\QuarkSocPkg\QuarkNorthCluster\Library\SmbusLib

I named this smbuslib as quark-smbuslib

2.      MdePkg\Library\PeiSmbusLibSmbus2Ppi\
I name this smbuslib as Mde-smbuslib

My questions are:

1.      Quark-smbuslib provided some basic smbus operation functions, and these 
functions could be called by some PEIMs/Dxe drivers

So, it means not needed to implement gEfiPeiSmbus2Ppi for PEI phase?

(because quark-smbuslib has provided needed functions)

2.      Mde-smbuslib will consume gEfiPeiSmbus2PpiGuid
This smbuslib is independent , and just uses gEfiPeiSmbus2Ppi to encapsulate 
some functions.
So, a BIOS provider should implement a gEfiPeiSmbus2Ppi for PEI phase?

Thanks

SmbusPpi is defined in PI spec. SmbusLib is defined in Edk2 MdePkg.

Edk2 PEIM can base on SmBusLib. SmBusLib implementation wraps SmBusPpi.

Subject: [edk2-devel] [edk2] Smbuslib and SmbusPpi

Hi, Liming:
I have a question about smbus access during pei phase.

I found there was not smbus ppi reference implementation in edk2-platform code 
base.
And there was a SmbusLib reference implementation lib.

So, PEIMs usually use functions provided by SmbusLib?
Not use PeiSmbusPpi’s interface functions?

Thanks

Best wishes,
