Laszlo, Adding a PCD means platform integrators need to consider which value to set. Most of the time, they may just use the default PCD value. Then, why not we add the PCD later when a real case is m

This commit will reduce the interval of the AP status check event from 100 milliseconds to 10 milliseconds. (I searched the history of the 100ms interval, it seems no comment or log message was mentio

Hi Samer, I had, perhaps excessively, been waiting for more feedback. I promised Mike yesterday that I will rework based on feedback and send out next week at the latest. If people have no further com

Has there been any progress on this "code-first process" proposal? Any timeline on when we should expect it to be launched? Thanks, --Samer

Any comment?

This is a proposal for a process by which new features can be added to UEFI forum specifications after first having been designed and prototyped in the open. This process lets changes and the developm

Hello, After adding some GPU cards to our system (each containing a 16GB BAR), we ran out of MEM64 BAR space as indicated by the following OVMF DEBUG output: -------- PciHostBridge: SubmitResources fo

Hi Mike, Jian and Jiewen, Based on our discussion, I have compiled the enhancements/changes to be made to BaseHashApiLib instance in CryptoPkg in the Bugzilla, https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.

All, VariablePolicy is our proposal for an expanded “VarLock-like” interface to constrain and govern platform variables. I brought this up back in May to get initial comments on the interface and impl

HI Bret Thanks for the work. The design doc is very good. Some feedback/questions below: 1. We have 2 variable related protocol - EDKII_VARIABLE_LOCK_PROTOCOL and EDKII_VAR_CHECK_PROTOCOL. Do you want

Kevin, Agreed and we were sensitive to that in our codebase as well. Surface and other consumers had drivers expecting VarLock and we didn’t want to have to rewrite them all (at least not immediately)

Bret, We like the new functionality. Our concern is our customers / we will need to modify all of the code that are consumers of EDKII_VARIABLE_LOCK_PROTOCOL to use the new protocols. If you could rev

Leif, A few comments included below. Thanks, Mike

I agree -- I expect that most if not all platform DSC files will need updates. That's because the most frugal approach for a platform is to use the self-contained UefiDevicePathLib instance only in ve

HI all, REF: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2298 In the MdePkg, there are two folder for the DevicePathLib: 1. MdePkg\Library\UefiDevicePathLib 2. MdePkg\Library\UefiDevicePathLibDevic

Hello, Currently the UEFI drivers using the SHA/SM3 hashing algorithms use hard-coded API to calculate the hash, such as, sha_256(...), etc. Since SHA384 and/or SM3 are being increasingly adopted, it

Andrew, I agree with your points. Mike, You’ve got a lot more there. Let me take a look and update the draft. I’ll ping back ASAP. - Bret Sent: Wednesday, December 4, 2019 9:50 AM To: devel@edk2.group

Mike, I like and agree with your comments. On the UnitTestPkg(s) dependency issue I think it would make sense to move as much as possible into the *Pkg/Test/ ( *Pkg/HostLibrary, MdePkg/MdePkgTest.dsc,

Hi Bret, Thanks for posting this content. Host based unit testing is a very valuable addition to the CI checks. I have the following comments: 1. I see that MdePkg adds a dependency on UnitTestPkg. Th
