Peter, https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/blob/master/BaseTools/Conf/build_rule.template <https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/blob/master/BaseTools/Conf/build_rule.template> gets copied to Cont/build_rule.txt and these are the rules use to build the makefiles. In your INF file you can add a [BuildOptions] section and use that to modify the compiler, linker flags, etc for your module. This is the horrific example of what is possible: https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/blob/master/EmulatorPkg/Unix/Host/Host.inf#L118 <https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/blob/master/EmulatorPkg/Unix/Host/Host.inf#L118> You can prune by compiler type, architecture, and which FLAG you want to use. I seem to remember = is append and == is replace.
