That is what I started out with. The problem is that I am not 100% convinced that it is safe to dereference the initial FDT base address at arbitrary times during PEI, and so it would be better to consume the FDT from the GUIDed HOB. That, however, creates another ordering issue, and so we should install a PPI that signals the availability of the FDT GUIDed HOB. At this point, I decided it would be better to just produce the PPI in the PlatformPeiLib, but I agree it is not the cleanest approach. > BTW I think the following modules are never meant to be used together: > > MdeModulePkg/Library/PeiResetSystemLib/PeiResetSystemLib.inf > MdeModulePkg/Universal/ResetSystemPei/ResetSystemPei.inf > > because they seem to depend mutually on each other's abstract interface > (PPI vs. lib class).

If every PEIM that needs to reset the system calls into a library directly, this no longer works. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
