HI Ard
You are very careful and definitely right.

The code in BdsBoot.c seems be added in more than 10 years ago, when we did 
EDK-I. At that time, we do not have such thorough design review.
In old days, we just need find a place to call S3Save() then someone added it, 
and leave it till now.
It still works till now, because S3Save() function only required to be entered 
once. Since most platforms already call S3Save() in platform BDS. It has no 
impact here. See code below:
=======================
  //
  // Platform may invoke AcpiS3Save->S3Save() before ExitPmAuth, because we 
need save S3 information there, while BDS ReadyToBoot may invoke it again.
  // So if 2nd S3Save() is triggered later, we need ignore it.
  //
  if (AlreadyEntered) {
    return EFI_SUCCESS;
  }
  AlreadyEntered = TRUE;
=======================

Also, if a platform fail to call S3Save() early and let BDS trigger S3Save() 
here, I think system will ASSERT, because SaveLockBox will fail.
=======================
  Status = SaveLockBox (
             &mAcpiS3IdtrProfileGuid,
             (VOID *)(UINTN)Idtr,
             (UINTN)sizeof(IA32_DESCRIPTOR)
             );
  ASSERT_EFI_ERROR (Status);
=======================

As conclusion, I completely agree with you that this code in BdsBoot.c should 
be removed to eliminate confusing.

Thank you
Yao Jiewen

That is true.

There are two constraints for the moment where end-of-DXE is signalled:
- according to the PI spec

"""
5.1.2.1 End of DXE Event
Prior to invoking any UEFI drivers, applications, or connecting consoles, the 
platform should signal the event EFI_END_OF_DXE_EVENT_GUID.
"""

which means PlatformBdsInit() would be a reasonable candidate location, 
provided that it gets documented in the PlatformBdsLib API that the even should 
be signalled then.

However, there is another constraint, according to 
https://firmware.intel.com/sites/default/files/A_Tour_Beyond_BIOS_Implementing_S3_resume_with_EDKII.pdf

"""
PlatformBDS need 1) call AcpiS3->S3Save() to save S3 system information, then 
2) signal EndOfDxe to give DXE silicon driver last chance to save boot script, 
and finally 3) signal 17 SmmReadyToLock to close boot script and save boot 
script to LockBox. These calls must be in this order, or the boot script might 
not be able to save correctly.
"""

The problem is (as Laszlo has pointed out) that the generic BDS calls
AcpiS3->S3Save () in BdsLibBootViaBootOption (), which is problematic
for two reasons:
- it is long after PlatformBdsInit(), so signalling end-of-DXE there will occur 
before S3Save
- BdsLibBootViaBootOption () may never return control to the Platform BDS, so 
there is no way the Platform BDS can ensure that end-of-DXE will be signalled 
after the existing S3Save()

In summary, the S3Save() call needs to be moved if we want to adhere to both 
constraints above.
