Oh? Where is the spec? Also, why is Vlv2TbltDevicePkg 14MB, and more than 65% of that is binaries? We moved a large chunk of binaries out of BaseTools/Bin a while back, and this seems like a similar situation. I think these binaries don't belong in the EDK II source code tree. Is there any way these items could be overlayed into the tree from elsewhere if needed? -Jordan > > -----Original Message----- > From: edk2-devel [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Bruce > Cran > Sent: Wednesday, November 25, 2015 11:30 AM > To: Justen, Jordan L <[email protected]>; Wei, David > <[email protected]>; He, Tim <[email protected]> > Cc: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [edk2] Vlv2TbltDevicePkg/GenBiosId binary > > On 11/24/15 3:03 PM, Jordan Justen wrote: > > > I wonder why this binary exists in EDK II without source code. > > > > I also notice that Vlv2TbltDevicePkg/GenBiosId is a 32-bit ELF > > executable.
