I would rather see the the BaseCryptLib and TlsLib instance in all packages other than CryptoPkg should use the NULL instance of the libs. This would avoid the dependency. Any concerns of going this route?

Thanks
Sean

Hi Matt:
   With this change, which library instance should be used for the platform? 
BaseRngLibTimerLib?

   And, this patch introduces the dependency for RngLib. Then, NetworkPkg and 
FmpDevicePkg package level build will break. Will you update them?

Thanks
Liming

OpensslLib

Hi Matt,

1) BaseRngLibTimerLib
   a) The comments incorrectly list delays in ms instead of us.
   b) Did you consider use of GetPerformanceCounterProperties()?
      I also do not seen an explanation of the delay values used.
      (why not smaller or larger values).  At a minimum, the file
      header should state it only works if the rate of the perf
      counter from TimerLib is much greater than 1MHz.
2) BaseRngLibDxe
    a) This is not a lib of type Base.  I recommend the name
       DxeRngLibRngProtocol.
    b) Has a "MU_CHANGE" comment that can be removed
    c) GenerateRandomNumberViaNist800Algorithm() assigns values in
       declaration.  Init should be moved into statements.
    d) How would gBS aver be NULL?  The INF lists the BootServicesTableLib
       as a dependency, so the constructer is always run before the
       services are used.  I think these checks can be removed.
    e) Minor code style issues.  if statements should have { as end of line.

With the addition of DxeRngLibRngProtocol to MdePkg, I think the CryptoPkg DSC 
can be updated to use this RngLib instance from the Crypto DXE mododule.

Best regards,

Mike
