Hi Chasel,

I agree with the high-level problem. Here's some observations.

1. I'm not a big fan of implicitly associating index zero of the mPlatformFvBaseAddress array as the variable FV entry. It could be easy for that to silently get out of sync in the future.

Perhaps you could check if the base address at a given index equals the variable store address since it is retrieved via GetVariableFlashNvStorageInfo() at the beginning of FvbInitialize().

2. VariableFlashInfoLib is meant to abstract var store info with GetVariableFlashNvStorageInfo().

Please use that instead of directly getting it with PcdGet32 (PcdFlashNvStorageVariableSize).

3. Suggest a blank link before the following text for readability.

            //
            // Write buffer to flash
            //

4. Usually there's a few default variables in the var store FV that form a foundation that the variable HOB gets written upon when the HOB gets flushed. Does the original var store FV still contain some of those entries? If so, this just restores an empty store, so those are known to be lost, right?

If that's true, please call it out in the patch description.

Thanks,
Michael

When invalid VariableStore FV header detected, current SpiFvbService
will erase both FV and VariableStore headers from flash, however,
it will only rewrite FV header back and cause invalid VariableStore
header.

This patch adding the support for rewriting both FV header and
VariableStore header when VariableStore corruption happened.

Platform has to set PcdFlashVariableStoreType to inform SpiFvbService
which VariableStoreType should be rewritten.
