Yeah, I have the same problem with cscope. Too many matches for one symbol.

I use cscope, and the "rscope" extension to emacs. I use a script to collect source files and include directories from the source tree to generate the cscope.files file. That works, but isn't smart about removing code which isn't actually compiled in a particular build. So it requires some familiarity with the sources to understand which symbol matches are relevant.

Started looking at EDKII code about two months ago. One of the things I still haven't figured out is how to read code effectively, possibly with the help of cross referencing tools. Haven't got much luck with cscope, and I don't see any compile_commands.json being generated either.
What do you folks use for cross referencing? What's your development setup like?
