+edk2 list

I am not against adding additional test tools to edk2-test. Just feel like 
there is a need to organize and have a strategy, rather than just use edk2-test 
as a dumping group of miscellaneous tools.

There is already a place for apps under 
https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/tree/master/MdeModulePkg/Application

We also have a number of EDK2 misc applications that use edk2-libc in 
https://github.com/tianocore/edk2-libc/tree/master/AppPkg/Applications

A couple of questions:

  *   Do you expect more apps from WinTestPkg to be contributed to TianoCore? 
And are they all around testing specific Windows requirements? If so, then 
having an edk2-test/WinTestPkg makes sense to me, as you will have a collection 
of useful testing app targeting specific area.
     *   But what about other OSes?
  *   If this is a one-off test app and other WinTestPkg apps are not going to 
be contributed, then does it make sense to put this under 
MdeModulePkg/Application ?

Hi Edhay,

Do you have any more questions?
What do you think of creating another directory in edk2-test, for other test 
apps, in addition to uefi-sct, such as ResumeOK.efi?

Thanks,

Hi Edhay,

ResumeOK.efi is a tool I wrote from the HelloWorld example, that validates 
Windows resume from S4 requirements, specifically that the memory-map run-time 
memory regions don't change, and secondly that PCI devices don't disappear from 
the system, both conditions would cause Windows to fail to resume from S4.

You install the tool to the root of the ESP, and set it as the default/top 
entry in the boot manager, and launch it.  (Disable Secure Boot.)

It runs warm, cold, and 60s ACPI RTC wake cycles, infinitely looking for errors.

ResumeOK.efi writes a file to the root of the ESP, ResumeOK.map, which contains 
the ACPI Facs->HardwareSignature, a list of the PCI devices in the system, and 
a copy of its memory map, from the first time it runs.

During each test pass, it runs a barrage of tests:


  1.  Free memory test - does the available memory match the memory map saved 
in ResumeOK.map
  2.  HW signature check - does the system still have the same HW signature as 
saved in the ResumeOK.map
  3.  Allocation test - all the available memory is allocated, and then the 
memory map is checked if the run-time regions match ResumeOK.map.

If any of the tests fail, then the new/missing PCI devices are listed (HW 
signature fail case), or the memory descriptor that changed, it's location, and 
current and previous type and size.

I have received permission from Intel to *try* to release the source under 
Edk2-test.

I've included a 64-bit binary, if you want to give it a test drive.

Make sure Secure Boot is off.
Also, it is required to manually delete any ResumeOK.map on the ESP, before 
beginning a new test pass.

The tool also supports a host of EFI Shell commands:

Resumeok.efi MEMMAP - displays Windows coalesced view of the current memory map
ResumeOK.efi ROKMAP - displays Windows coalesced view of the memory saved in 
ResumeOK.map
ResumeOK.efi RTDATA - displays an analysis of RT_Data pool usage
ResumeOK.efi NORESET - run one test pass, but suppress automatic SX cycling

These are the files that build it:

Edk2\WinTestPkg\Application
Edk2\WinTestPkg\WinTestPkg.dec
Edk2\WinTestPkg\WinTestPkg.dsc
Edk2\WinTestPkg\Application\ResumeOK

Hi Eric,

    Thanks for reaching out to us.
Can we get more details of the tool?

Is this tool already open sourced or could you send us the basic documentation 
pertaining to it.

With Warm Regards,
Edhay

Hello SCT maintainers,

I'm looking to release source to a UEFI validation tool that has been a big hit 
with platform BIOS validation teams, so it can help other PC vendors.

My coworker Michael Kinney suggested I reach out to you directly about the idea 
of creating a new top level directory in the edk2-test repro for other test 
apps, and I could be maintainer.

What do you think of creating another directory in edk2-test, for other test 
apps, in addition to uefi-sct?

Thanks!
