Subject: RE: [edk2-devel][edk2-platforms][PATCH V1 00/27] Improve feature build 
consistency

Hi Issac,

Thank you for doing this cleanup work. I have some comments for you. I have 
provided a summary of my feedback below:

PATCH 01/27

* Features/Intel/Debugging/BeepDebugFeaturePkg/Include/BeepDebugFeature.dsc

Line 69: [Components.IA32] should be changed to [Components.$(PEI_ARCH)] Line 
83: [Components.X64] should be changed to [Components.$(DXE_ARCH)]

Note: These comments can also be addressed by restoring the @todo comment 
stating that these changes still need to be done (which you deleted.)
[Isaac] $(DXE_ARCH) and $(PEI_ARCH) are not fully functional.  It appears that 
they are fine in DSC files, even when inside an include.  But they are not fine 
inside an include in an FDF file.  The PreMemory.fdf and PostMemory.fdf do not 
work when I try to introduce this change.  
As these are not required, ToDo are against coding style and are bad for 
comprehensibility, I would prefer to not add such useless comments back in.  
Comments should improve the comprehensibility of code and should not distract 
from understanding the code.

PATCH 18/27

* Features/Intel/Debugging/AcpiDebugFeaturePkg/AcpiDebugFeaturePkg.dsc

Line 33: [PcdsFeatureFlag.X64] should be changed to 
[PcdsFeatureFlag.$(DXE_ARCH)]

Note: This comment can also be addressed by adding a @todo comment stating that 
this change still needs to be done.
[Isaac] See prior response.

PATCH 19/27

* Features/Intel/Debugging/Usb3DebugFeaturePkg/Include/Usb3DebugFeature.dsc

Line 35: Typo here. Usb3DebugPortParamLibo should be Usb3DebugPortParamLib.
[Isaac] Good catch.  I guess we don't catch that class of error if the library 
class is not used.

* Features/Intel/Debugging/Usb3DebugFeaturePkg/Usb3DebugFeaturePkg.dsc

Line 40: Did you test compilation for the Usb3DebugFeaturePkg? I've generally 
run into issues when a components sections does not specify a machine 
architecture through some sort of means.
[Isaac] There is no code consuming these libraries.  I verified build of 32 and 
64 bit modes as well as part of AdvancedFeaturePkg build and a board package 
build.
I believe that library classes can be specified by module type and the build 
tool builds the right mode for the consuming driver on demand.  Basically, 
there is no value to specifying architecture for a library.
This does not work with components however.  If you leave the architecture 
unspecified, you get an error when including the component in an FDF as the 
build does not know how to resolve.

PATCH 26/27

Since FvAdvanced is post-memory and not covered by the boot guard IBB, I 
suspect we should probably also support optional signing of that FV.
[Isaac] I do not know how to act on that suggestion.  That seems out of scope 
for this change.  I restricted my changes to be functionally compatible as I do 
not have hardware to test these changes other than minimally.

Thanks,
Nate

Subject: [edk2-devel][edk2-platforms][PATCH V1 00/27] Improve feature build 
consistency

This series addresses inconsistencies in feature implementation and use. Some 
inconsistencies are just conventions of the feature design/template/convention. 
 Some are inconsistency with feature design intent that negatively affect the 
usability of the features and the amount of work required from board porting 
engineers.

Some features were missing feature enable flags.
Some features had non-functional standalone builds.
Many features were implemented to include common core build content in their 
feature include files.
Updated some of the Readme content.
Added AdvancedFeaturePkg.fdf to build all feature content to support verifying 
no build time issues between features.
Removed duplicate and unused content from build files.
Modified the TemplateFeaturePkg to use the common MinPlatform include content.

Removed all instances where features were relative to Features/Intel and made 
them relative to the package roots.
This does mean PACKAGES_PATH may need to be extended for all the feature 
domains.  Debugging, PowerManagement, etc.
However, it should enable packaging tools to function properly as the relative 
paths violate spec.

Use of the common MinPlatformPkg build includes does increase the build time 
for each individual feature in standalone build modes. It does not negatively 
impact board or AdvancedFeaturePkg builds as the common content is only built 
once. Part of MinPlatform arch intent is to reduce cognitive complexity, so the 
simpler build is more valuable than fast build time.
