Justin, Thanks. Appreciate your suggestions A) I removed the GUID defined per your suggestion and it still fails. I did this similar failed experiment in NT32Pkg as a build test. Attach is the patch if you or others have suggestions..It looks to me EFI_COMPRESSION has some issues.
FILE SMM = $(NAMED_GUID) {
SMM_DEPEX SMM_DEPEX Optional $(INF_OUTPUT)/$(MODULE_NAME).depex
COMPRESS PI_STD {
#<Per Justin> GUIDED {
PE32 PE32 $(INF_OUTPUT)/$(MODULE_NAME).efi
}
#<Per Justin> }
}
b) The below fixes the build issue but the SMM drivers are no longer loaded. I
need to spend some time to understand if I need to do changes in BIOS runtime
code etc.
FILE SMM = $(NAMED_GUID) {
SMM_DEPEX SMM_DEPEX Optional $(INF_OUTPUT)/$(MODULE_NAME).depex
GUIDED A31280AD-481E-41B6-95E8-127F4C984779 PROCESSING_REQUIRED = TRUE {
PE32 PE32 $(INF_OUTPUT)/$(MODULE_NAME).efi
}
}
Thanks

That doesn't appear to be the correct syntax for compression. How about these?
EFI compression:
COMPRESS PI_STD {
PE32 PE32 $(INF_OUTPUT)/$(MODULE_NAME).efi
}
TianoCompress compression:
GUIDED A31280AD-481E-41B6-95E8-127F4C984779 PROCESSING_REQUIRED = TRUE {
PE32 PE32 $(INF_OUTPUT)/$(MODULE_NAME).efi
}
LZMA compression:
GUIDED EE4E5898-3914-4259-9D6E-DC7BD79403CF PROCESSING_REQUIRED = TRUE {
PE32 PE32 $(INF_OUTPUT)/$(MODULE_NAME).efi
}
