Hi Ray,

It still has copyright year issue. Should 2020, not 2021.

Thanks,
Eric

Subject: [PATCH v2] UefiCpuPkg/PiSmmCpuDxeSmm: Improve the performance of 
GetFreeToken()

Today's GetFreeToken() runs at the algorithm complexity of O(n) where n is the 
size of the token list.

The change introduces a new global variable FirstFreeToken and it always points 
to the first free token. So the algorithm complexity of GetFreeToken() 
decreases from O(n) to O(1).

The improvement matters when some SMI code uses StartupThisAP() service for 
each of the AP such that the algorithm complexity becomes O(n) * O(m) where m 
is the AP count.

As next steps,
1. PROCEDURE_TOKEN.Used field can be optimized out because all tokens before 
FirstFreeToken should have "Used" set while all after FirstFreeToken should 
have "Used" cleared.
2. ResetTokens() can be optimized to only reset tokens before FirstFreeToken.
