Sorry for a question.

I referred the code in InitFtwDevice():
  FtwDevice->WorkSpaceAddress = (EFI_PHYSICAL_ADDRESS)PcdGet64 
(PcdFlashNvStorageFtwWorkingBase64);
  if (FtwDevice->WorkSpaceAddress == 0) {
    FtwDevice->WorkSpaceAddress = (EFI_PHYSICAL_ADDRESS)PcdGet32 
(PcdFlashNvStorageFtwWorkingBase);
  }

and the PCD definition in MdeModulePkg.dec:
  ## Base address of the FTW working block range in flash device.
  # If PcdFlashNvStorageFtwWorkingSize is larger than one block size, this 
value should be block size aligned.
  # @Prompt Base address of flash FTW working block range.
  
gEfiMdeModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdFlashNvStorageFtwWorkingBase|0x0|UINT32|0x30000010

  ## 64-bit Base address of the FTW working block range in flash device.
  # If PcdFlashNvStorageFtwWorkingSize is larger than one block size, this 
value should be block size aligned.
  # @Prompt 64-bit Base address of flash FTW working block range.
  
gEfiMdeModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdFlashNvStorageFtwWorkingBase64|0x0|UINT64|0x80000010

The description of both PCDs mentioned a block size alignment requirement.
Does the change in this patch conflict with the above PCD description?

(SpareAreaAddress is having a similar case.)

Best Regards,
Hao Wu

Hi

Would any one be able to review please?

Thank you

WorkSpaceAddress and SpareAreaAddress point into MMIO, which isn't
always aligned. Remove the check for block alignment to avoid
false assertions.
