Hi, all

  This patch is for below  ITEM 7. INF/DEC are generated from UPT tool. 
DEC_SPECIFICATION and INF_VERSION will be updated to 0x00010017. Please help 
review them.

   UefiCpuPkg: Make sure order of DEC/INF content matches the order that UPT 
generates in the XML -> INF conversion

1)      Section Order in INF/DEC to match the ones generated from UPT

2)      Guid value in section will be align.

3)      Usage comments in section will be align.

4)      One PCD section includes one PCD type. If one PCD supports more PCD 
types, it will be listed in each PCD type section  in DEC file.

Subject: [edk2] [Patch 1/2] [UefiCpuPkg] INF/DEC file updates to EDK II packages

Hi, all
  Could you help review this patch? It includes the following changes 1-6 for 
UefiCpuPkg. The patch is a little big. For new added UNI file, I zip them 
together.

  The second patch for below item 7 will be sent later

Subject: [edk2] INF/DEC file updates to EDK II packages

Hello,

I wanted to let everyone know about a number of patch reviews for EDK II 
packages that will be sent out over the next couple of weeks.  These patches 
impact the order of content in INF/DEC files and comment blocks in INF/DEC 
files, and should not have any build or functionality impacts.  These patches 
will address the following issues:


1)      Usage information in INF file comment blocks are either incomplete or 
incorrect.  This includes usage information for 
Protocols/PPIs/GUIDs/PCDs/HOBs/Events/BootModes.  The syntax for usage 
information in comment blocks is defined in the EDK II Module Information (INF) 
Specification

2)      Add MODULE_UNI_FILE to INF [Defines] section along with UNI file that 
contains the localized Abstract and Description of a module.

a.       Addresses an information gap between INF files and the UEFI 
Distribution Packaging Specification XML schema

b.      There will be an associated update to UPT in BaseTools to consume 
MODULE_UNI_FILE and associated UNI file during UDP creation that performs the 
INF -> XML conversion.

c.       There will be an associated update to UPT in BaseTools to produce 
MODULE_UNI_FILE and associated UNI file during UDP installation that performs 
the XML -> INF conversion.

3)      Add [UserExtensions.TianoCore."ExtraFiles"] section to INF files along 
with associated UNI file that provides the localized Name of a module.

a.       [UserExtensions.TianoCore."ExtraFiles"] provides an easy method for a 
module to specify extra files not listed in [Sources] or [Binaries] sections to 
be added to a UDP without having to list the files in the UPT package 
information data file.

b.      There will be an associated update to UPT in BaseTools to package up 
files listed in [UserExtensions.TianoCore."ExtraFiles"] during UDP creation.

c.       UNI file contains localized name of a module to go along with the 
localized Abstract and Description from the MODULE_UNI_FILE.

4)      PCD information in DEC file comment blocks are either incomplete or 
incorrect.  This includes detailed description, @Prompt, @ValidRange, 
@ValidList, @Expression, and [Error.<TokenSpaceGuid>] validation error messages

5)      Add PACKAGE_UNI_FILE to DEC [Defines] section along with UNI file that 
contains the localized Abstract and Description of a package and localized 
strings associated with PCDs.

a.       Addresses an information gap between DEC files and the UEFI 
Distribution Packaging Specification XML schema

b.      There will be an associated update to UPT in BaseTools to consume 
PACKAGE_UNI_FILE and associated UNI file during UDP creation that performs the 
DEC -> XML conversion.

c.       There will be an associated update to UPT in BaseTools to produce 
PACKAGE_UNI_FILE and associated UNI file during UDP installation that performs 
the XML -> DEC conversion.

6)      Add [UserExtensions.TianoCore."ExtraFiles"] section to DEC files along 
with associated UNI file that provides the localized Name of a package.

a.       [UserExtensions.TianoCore."ExtraFiles"] provides an easy method for a 
package to specify extra files to be added to a UDP without having to list the 
files in the UPT package information data file.

b.      There will be an associated update to UPT in BaseTools to package up 
files listed in [UserExtensions.TianoCore."ExtraFiles"] during UDP creation.

c.       UNI file contains localized name of a package to go along with the 
localized Abstract and Description from the PACKAGE_UNI_FILE.

7)      Make sure order of DEC/INF content matches the order that UPT generates 
in the XML -> INF conversion

a.       This allows UDP packages installed by UPT to be compared against EDK 
II trunk/branches using standard diff utilities.

Patches for the following EDK II packages are being prepared

1)      MdePkg

2)      MdeModulePkg

3)      IntelFrameworkPkg

4)      IntelFrameworkModulePkg

5)      FatPkg

6)      ShellPkg

7)      PcAtChipsetPkg

8)      UefiCpuPkg

9)      SourceLevelDebugPkg

10)   CryptoPkg

11)   SecurityPkg

12)   NetworkPkg

Best regards,

Mike
