Yes we do. I have a pachset lined up that updates the Raspberry Pi ACPI

But does the RPi have SPE and the associated overflow interrupt?
No, but it doesn't matter since the specs indicate that SPE values can
be set to zero if unused/non-applicable.
ACPI
is designed to be backward compatible, so it is perfectly acceptable
to use the 6.2 macros in the context of a firmware implementation that
complies with 6.3.
This is what happens if you try to use EFI_ACPI_6_0_GICC_STRUCTURE_INIT

What do you mean exactly by 'in a 6.3 context': are you trying to
statically initialize a 63 struct with the 60 macro?
Yes. I am trying to upgrade all of our ACPI tables to 6.3, on account
that (part of a commit message from the edk2-platform I have lined up):
---
Because of its widespread availability and low price, we expect the
Raspberry Pi source to be used by platform developers as a starting
point to create their own platform implementation.
As such, it makes a lot of sense to want to use the most up to date
underlying standards, even if the pay off is limited in this case,
as it may help others benefit from the latest improvements and
features brought by modern ACPI.
---
The only reason I'm sending an EDK2 patch, which I'd always rather avoid
so that edk2-platforms patches can be applied faster, is that I haven't
been able to find a way to make the existing 6.0 macros work in a 6.3
context, and I expect that this will be the case for others.
By why do we need the 6.3 context? If 6.0 can describe our platform
fully, it is actually better for compatibility to stick with it rather
than upgrade to 6.3.
See above.
I have to say that I'm a bit taken aback by the idea that, even though
we can anticipate that there will be a need for a 6.3 macro that does
initialise the SPE field, there seems to be strong reluctance to add
that macro before someone makes the case for it.
Well, the reason I asked was because I only want to merge changes that
are actually need. If there is a valid need, I will happily merge this
patch.
But as it turns out, the reason is simply being able to claim that we
implement the latest ACPI revision, which is actually a bad idea for
platforms that don't actually rely on any of the new features, since
it may prevent you from being able to run older OSes
Then we have two very different visions for the platform, especially
when it comes to the Pi 4, where networking and SD card support is
pretty much NO_GO for any "older" OS (and troublesome enough as it is in
modern nones).
This is actually the one place where I'd like to see an actual use-case
made for "older OSes incompatibility", especially when it comes to 6.0
MADT vs 6.3 MADT, where the only different is that 6.0 had 3 reserved
fields and 6.3 started to use 2 of those.
For the record, the MADT blobs we got from Microsoft (for the Pi 3) were
6.0, and we did downgrade them to 5.1 for convenience (rather than
compatibility issues), so I really fail to see the issue with bumping
MADT to 6.3.
Instead, what I'm seeing is folks who need the SPE fields for their
platform and look at other implementations to see how to set them up
wasting time having to send a duplicate of the current to edk2 for very
dubious reasons.
I disagree. We add what we need when we need it. The patch volume is
high enough as

build a new platform.
First of all, it is based on PrePi instead of PrePeiCore, and so it is
very difficult to add PEI phase drivers for, e.g., capsule update or
measured boot. But in general, the quirky hardware and firmware
arrangement make it a one-off design IMO, and new platforms should use
something like SynQuacer as a reference instead.
I'll be the first to agree that are much better platforms to use as
starting point. Unfortunately they don't come at the same price point
and widespread availability, which is why I think there is value is
trying to showcase what we can with the Pi's, despite their major
annoying quirks.

Well, the reason I asked was because I only want to merge changes that
are actually need. If there is a valid need, I will happily merge this
patch.
But as it turns out, the reason is simply being able to claim that we
implement the latest ACPI revision, which is actually a bad idea for
platforms that don't actually rely on any of the new features, since
it may prevent you from being able to run older OSes

I disagree. We add what we need when we need it. The patch volume is
high enough as it is.

Do we have a user for this?
Yes we do. I have a pachset lined up that updates the Raspberry Pi ACPI
to 6.3, that has a dependency on this.
But does the RPi have SPE and the associated overflow interrupt?
No, but it doesn't matter since the specs indicate that SPE values can
be set to zero if unused/non-applicable.
ACPI
is designed to be backward compatible, so it is perfectly acceptable
to use the 6.2 macros in the context of a firmware implementation that
complies with 6.3.
This is what happens if you try to use EFI_ACPI_6_0_GICC_STRUCTURE_INIT
in a 6.3 context:

What do you mean exactly by 'in a 6.3 context': are you trying to
statically initialize a 63 struct with the 60 macro?
Yes. I am trying to upgrade all of our ACPI tables to 6.3, on account
that (part of a commit message from the edk2-platform I have lined up):
---
Because of its widespread availability and low price, we expect the
Raspberry Pi source to be used by platform developers as a starting
point to create their own platform implementation.
As such, it makes a lot of sense to want to use the most up to date
underlying standards, even if the pay off is limited in this case,
as it may help others benefit from the latest improvements and
features brought by modern ACPI.
---
The only reason I'm sending an EDK2 patch, which I'd always rather avoid
so that edk2-platforms patches can be applied faster, is that I haven't
been able to find a way to make the existing 6.0 macros work in a 6.3
context, and I expect that this will be the case for others.
By why do we need the 6.3 context? If 6.0 can describe our platform
fully, it is actually better for compatibility to stick with it rather
than upgrade to 6.3.
See above.
I have to say that I'm a bit taken aback by the idea that, even though
we can anticipate that there will be a need for a 6.3 macro that does
initialise the SPE field, there seems to be strong reluctance to add
that macro before someone makes the case for it.
Ideally, we should update our macros the minute the specs are released,
regardless of whether we believe there's a use-case for it or not.
Regards,
/Pete
Or is there another reason you want to update the
MADT to 6.3?
I just want to fix the compilation error, as well as make sure that
folks who need the ACPI 6.3 SPE init can get it without having to spend
time waiting for an EDK2 patch to be applied.
BTW, this patch sets the size of the GICC entry to 'sizeof
(EFI_ACPI_6_0_GIC_STRUCTURE)' so it is likely that the parser will
choke on it.
The structure size hasn't changed. There were 3 reserved bytes, and now
there's one reserve byte and one 16-bit word for the SPE.
Since I actually need this patch as part of a platform update, I did
validate compilation, so, no, the parser doesn't choke on it.
I didn't mean to imply that you are being sloppy. I'd just like to
understand what the point is of all of this, given that ACPI 6.3 is
not needed to describe the RPi4

Re: [edk2-devel] [PATCH 1/1] EmbeddedPkg/AcpiLib: add GICC table init macro for ACPI 6.3
Incidentally, this is not an [edk2-platform] patch, as the subject line
from previous mail seemed to indicate, but an [edk2] patch.

ACPI 6.3 added a 16-bit SPE overflow Interrupt field, replacing
2 of the 3 reserved bytes that are defined at the end of the
GICC structure for 6.0.
Add a new macro to initialise the new field.
