Load, measure and cache all fw_cfg entries we care about early in the PEI phase (or SEC phase for pei-less builds), so we can (a) easily have a fixed order, and (b) store them all in HOBs? Which implies SEC/PEI must read all relevant fw_cfg entries, even in case they are used only later in the DXE phase. Advantage is we have a single cache which can be used in all firmware phases. When using global variables in DXE we still can end up reading entries multiple times, either because entries are needed by both PEI and DXE, or because multiple DXE modules need them (global variables are per module). take care, Gerd -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
