Hi Andrew,
Thanks! I have already tried all variation of depex (i.e. replace SMM_DEPEX
with DXE_DEPEX in all four possible cases) and all leads to the exact same
error. From the error it does look like tool can't find SectionType (i.e. line
number matches) but I don't know why..
Unfortunately the build scripts are not so easy to follow by just reading it
(due to my limited understanding); I was thinking of adding some debug
statement to spit out information from the tool but I can't rebuild tools
either. (a separate email send to this group)
I am assuming you all are able to compress the SMM drivers in your build
environment and don't see this issue. Correct?
Thanks

i.e. tried all the combination & all fails; from the documentation it's not
clear what the first & second reference of AAA_DEPEX means ; Do you?
SMM_DEPEX SMM_DEPEX Optional $(INF_OUTPUT)/$(MODULE_NAME).depex
SMM_DEPEX DXE_DEPEX Optional $(INF_OUTPUT)/$(MODULE_NAME).depex
DXE_DEPEX SMM_DEPEX Optional $(INF_OUTPUT)/$(MODULE_NAME).depex
DXE_DEPEX DXE_DEPEX Optional $(INF_OUTPUT)/$(MODULE_NAME).depex

Subject: Re: [edk2-buildtools] EDKII build issue: Can SMM driver be compressed
using current toolset
The COMPRESS section, is a standard encapsulation section type, so it should
not matter what the module type is.
I notice in your working example you are using DXE_DEPEX and your failing
example is using SMM_DEPEX. You may want to try using SMM_DEPEX in the working
case to see if that is it.
The error reporting from the Python tools is not the greatest and some times it
is good to look at the line before and the line after the error.

Hi all,
I am using UDK.SPI.UP1 source code to build some SMM drivers. Everything is
fine as long as drivers are uncompressed; but when I change the fdf file as
below to attempt to compress the SMM driver binary, I get the following error.
Any suggestion on what I may be doing wrong. Does the tool support SMM driver
compression?
Thanks

Change in FDF file
[Rule.Common.DXE_SMM_DRIVER]
FILE SMM = $(NAMED_GUID) {
SMM_DEPEX SMM_DEPEX Optional $(INF_OUTPUT)/$(MODULE_NAME).depex
COMPRESS PI_STD {
GUIDED {
PE32 PE32 $(INF_OUTPUT)/$(MODULE_NAME).efi
}
}
}
#[Rule.Common.DXE_SMM_DRIVER] <== (If I uncomment this section that the build
works fine but drivers are not compressed)
# FILE SMM = $(NAMED_GUID) {
# DXE_DEPEX DXE_DEPEX Optional $(INF_OUTPUT)/$(MODULE_NAME).depex
# PE32 PE32 $(INF_OUTPUT)/$(MODULE_NAME).efi
# }
