Hi Ard, Thank you very much for helping fix this issue.
And for ZeroMem(), it should be added back. Because after the memory is allocated, the optional padding (from the PCD) memory will be used directly. If ZeoMem() is dropped, then some contents in the padding memory will not be zero. Thus will impact the tool to parse the contents.

I'm not sure how I missed that. In any case, I can add back the ZeroMem () quite easily after the single invocation of AllocatePeiAccessiblePages() that I am adding in this file. > The patch looks good to me otherwise. > > Thanks > Laszlo > > >> >> MdeModulePkg/Library/DxeCorePerformanceLib/DxeCorePerformanceLib.c | >> 45 ++------------------ >> 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 41 deletions(-) >> >> diff --git >> a/MdeModulePkg/Library/DxeCorePerformanceLib/DxeCorePerformanceLib.c >> b/MdeModulePkg/Library/DxeCorePerformanceLib/DxeCorePerformanceLib.c >> index 71d624fc9ce9..b1f09710b65c 100644 >> --- >> a/MdeModulePkg/Library/DxeCorePerformanceLib/DxeCorePerformanceLib.c >> +++ b/MdeModulePkg/Library/DxeCorePerformanceLib/DxeCorePerformanceLi >> +++ b.c >> @@ -165,46 +165,6 @@ IsKnownID ( >> } >> } >> >> -/** >> - Allocate EfiReservedMemoryType below 4G memory address. >> - >> - This function allocates EfiReservedMemoryType below 4G memory address. >> - >> - @param[in] Size Size of memory to allocate. >> - >> - @return Allocated address for output. >> - >> -**/ >> -VOID * >> -FpdtAllocateReservedMemoryBelow4G ( >> - IN UINTN Size >> - ) >> -{ >> - UINTN Pages; >> - EFI_PHYSICAL_ADDRESS Address; >> - EFI_STATUS Status; >> - VOID *Buffer; >> - >> - Buffer = NULL; >> - Pages = EFI_SIZE_TO_PAGES (Size); >> - Address = 0xffffffff; >> - >> - Status = gBS->AllocatePages ( >> - AllocateMaxAddress, >> - EfiReservedMemoryType, >> - Pages, >> - &Address >> - ); >> - ASSERT_EFI_ERROR (Status); >> - >> - if (!EFI_ERROR (Status)) { >> - Buffer = (VOID *) (UINTN) Address; >> - ZeroMem (Buffer, Size); >> - } >> - >> - return Buffer; >> -} >> - >> /** >> Allocate buffer for Boot Performance table. >> >> @@ -348,7 +308,10 @@ AllocateBootPerformanceTable ( >> // >> // Fail to allocate at specified address, continue to allocate at any >> address. >> // >> - mAcpiBootPerformanceTable = (BOOT_PERFORMANCE_TABLE *) >> FpdtAllocateReservedMemoryBelow4G (BootPerformanceDataSize); >> + mAcpiBootPerformanceTable = (BOOT_PERFORMANCE_TABLE *) >> AllocatePeiAccessiblePages ( >> + >> EfiReservedMemoryType, >> + >> EFI_SIZE_TO_PAGES (BootPerformanceDataSize) >> + ); >> } >> DEBUG ((DEBUG_INFO, "DxeCorePerformanceLib: ACPI Boot Performance >> Table address = 0x%x\n", mAcpiBootPerformanceTable)); >> >> > _______________________________________________ edk2-devel mailing list edk2-devel@lists.01.org https://lists.01.org/mailman/listinfo/edk2-devel _______________________________________________ edk2-devel mailing list edk2-devel@lists.01.org https://lists.01.org/mailman/listinfo/edk2-devel
