So I thought we are keeping the command, but I do agree with Leif that better 
error path logic would be good.  We can wait for Ray to confirm if he has 
different plans.

Re: [edk2] [PATCH] Tftp assert fix for openfile failure case

2018-02-13 Thread Carsey, Jaben
Meenakshi,

The TFTP command is outside the UEFI Shell specification, therefore it is 
included as a DynamicCommand, not a command built into the shell itself.

I a little confused by your last sentence.  Do you want to send a new patch? or 
do you have a branch to pick changes from ?

Re: [edk2] [PATCH] Tftp assert fix for openfile failure case

2018-02-13 Thread Meenakshi Aggarwal
Hi,

As per commit 0961002352e9115b72f544dded239ad226efe87b

Tftp command will be maintained to extend internal commands and

ShellPkg/DynamicCommand/TftpDynamicCommand/Tftp.c

Looks like a copy of ShellPkg/Library/UefiShellTftpCommandLib/Tftp.c

So, below fix is needed in this case as well.

Please suggest, so we can send the updated patch [incorporating Leif's comments]


Thanks,
Meenakshi

I agree with this, please see my previous comments,

I am fine, if you prefer to remove this then we will develop some test 
application
for unit tests.
In case, we need to maintain this piece of code then above needs to fix as 
well.

Sure. The above was a snarky comment on the state of the existing
code.

OK, I can see how it could be useful.
My opposition is based on three things:
1) people _are_ trying to use it for boot
2) not a command described by UEFI Shell spec, but I keep seeing
   platforms including it even in RELEASE builds (most likely because 1)
3) code quality/maintainability

OK, so we don't need to drop it right now, but what's your take on
this comment?

Instead of being on some volume, if you are on Shell. 
Then file open will fail.

When you say about complete boot, then this may not be useful. 

> Am I being too harsh?

For doing some sort of unit testing of given interface. I found this useful.
During development, this is useful to transfer generic file to development 
board.

Wow, a goto in a foor loop in a 320-line function.
What could possibly go wrong?

So, a wider question:
This shell command was introduced in the heyday of "let's reimplement
U-Boot in the EDK2 tree". Mainly, from my impression, it seems to be
used in order that people don't need to learn how boot managers and
device paths work.
Am I being too harsh?
Are there practical uses for this?
Or should we delete it from the tree?

If the code is to be kept, I think (from a quick glance) that I would
also like to see *Data = NULL in the error path of DownloadFile().

[edk2] [PATCH] Tftp assert fix for openfile failure case

2017-11-03 Thread Vabhav
Issue:
when file open is failed, assert was seen due to freeing 0 size page

Reason:
DataSize is remain zero if error is reported in ShellOpenFileByName

Fix:
Update DataSize as soon as FileSize is available
