Some of those tests seem to be x64 specific (SMM tests), and some can be more generic like MorLockTestApp Like I said earlier, I am not against adding test tools to edk2-test. That in fact is welcomed, especially if their usefulness in validating the solutions extend beyond specific implementations. What would a good tree structure look like to accommodate misc tools? Today we have /edk2-test/uefi-sct/SctPkg How about something like this? /edk2-test/test-tools/TestToolsPkg or /edk2-test/ TestToolsPkg The "ResumeOK" can be placed there Any other ideas?

You install the tool to the root of the ESP, and set it as the default/top entry in the boot manager, and launch it. (Disable Secure Boot.) It runs warm, cold, and 60s ACPI RTC wake cycles, infinitely looking for errors. ResumeOK.efi writes a file to the root of the ESP, ResumeOK.map, which contains the ACPI Facs->HardwareSignature, a list of the PCI devices in the system, and a copy of its memory map, from the first time it runs. During each test pass, it runs a barrage of tests: 1. Free memory test - does the available memory match the memory map saved in ResumeOK.map 2. HW signature check - does the system still have the same HW signature as saved in the ResumeOK.map 3. Allocation test - all the available memory is allocated, and then the memory map is checked if the run-time regions match ResumeOK.map. If any of the tests fail, then the new/missing PCI devices are listed (HW signature fail case), or the memory descriptor that changed, it's location, and current and previous type and size. I have received permission from Intel to *try* to release the source under Edk2-test. I've included a 64-bit binary, if you want to give it a test drive. Make sure Secure Boot is off. Also, it is required to manually delete any ResumeOK.map on the ESP, before beginning a new test pass. The tool also supports a host of EFI Shell commands: Resumeok.efi MEMMAP - displays Windows coalesced view of the current memory map ResumeOK.efi ROKMAP - displays Windows coalesced view of the memory saved in ResumeOK.map ResumeOK.efi RTDATA - displays an analysis of RT_Data pool usage ResumeOK.efi NORESET - run one test pass, but suppress automatic SX cycling These are the files that build it: Edk2\WinTestPkg\Application Edk2\WinTestPkg\WinTestPkg.dec Edk2\WinTestPkg\WinTestPkg.dsc Edk2\WinTestPkg\Application\ResumeOK Edk2\WinTestPkg\Application\ResumeOK\AcpiTbl.c Edk2\WinTestPkg\Application\ResumeOK\AcpiTbl.h Edk2\WinTestPkg\Application\ResumeOK\AppSupport.c Edk2\WinTestPkg\Application\ResumeOK\BitMap.c Edk2\WinTestPkg\Application\ResumeOK\BitMap.h Edk2\WinTestPkg\Application\ResumeOK\EfiFileLib.c Edk2\WinTestPkg\Application\ResumeOK\EfiFileLib.h Edk2\WinTestPkg\Application\ResumeOK\pci.c Edk2\WinTestPkg\Application\ResumeOK\Pci.h Edk2\WinTestPkg\Application\ResumeOK\ResumeOK.c Edk2\WinTestPkg\Application\ResumeOK\ResumeOK.h Edk2\WinTestPkg\Application\ResumeOK\ResumeOK.inf Edk2\WinTestPkg\Application\ResumeOK\ResumeOK.uni Edk2\WinTestPkg\Application\ResumeOK\ResumeOKExtra.uni Edk2\WinTestPkg\Application\ResumeOK\RtData.c Edk2\WinTestPkg\Application\ResumeOK\TimeBaseLib.c Thanks, __e From: G Edhaya Chandran <edhaya.chand...@arm.com<mailto:edhaya.chand...@arm.com>> Sent: Monday, June 14, 2021 9:36 PM To: Nelson, Eric <eric.nel...@intel.com<mailto:eric.nel...@intel.com>>; gao...@byosoft.com.cn<mailto:gao...@byosoft.com.cn> Cc: Samer El-Haj-Mahmoud <samer.el-haj-mahm...@arm.com<mailto:samer.el-haj-mahm...@arm.com>> Subject: RE: Proposing a new area of the edk2-test repository Hi Eric, Thanks for reaching out to us.
