2 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Notes for this ChangeLog.txt !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
\r
4 This log file is used to record two kinds of important information:
\r
5 a) "Non-Compatible Changes": all non-compatible changes should be recorded. These info
\r
6 will help the package user to merge this package; and some non-compatible changes
\r
7 can also be added into release notes as news features when we release this package.
\r
8 Normally Non-Compatible Changes contains the following types:
\r
9 1) Package's external services were changed/updated
\r
10 2) Package's common .h file is renamed, deleted, or the file path is changed.
\r
11 3) The definition of package's common data structure is changed
\r
14 b) "Important Compatible Changes": some important compatible changes can aslo be recorded
\r
15 in this file, and we can add these updating into release notes when we release this
\r
18 Non-Compatible and Compatible example format:
\r

527 1) To generate capsule, insert [Capsule] section after [FV] sections and specifying
\r
528 what FV will be put into capsule, For example:
\r
530 CAPSULE_GUID = 3B6686BD-0D76-4030-B70E-B5519E2FC5A0

538 1) Added support of Apriori file generation from FDF file.
\r
539 2) Added support of INF that describes binary files to put binary into FV.
\r
540 3) Fixed single FV/FD generation error when specifying -i/-r option in GenFds.
\r
544 1) BaseTools/Bin/Win32/build.exe
\r
545 2) BaseTools/Bin/Win32/GenFds.exe
\r
548 1) To generate Apriori file in FV, insert APRIORI statement just before the INF or
\r
549 FILE statement list of the FV, For example:
\r
551 INF MdeModulePkg/Universal/PCD/Pei/Pcd.inf
\r
552 FILE PEIM = B7A5041A-78BA-49e3-B73B-54C757811FB6 {
\r
553 SECTION PE32 = MyBinPkg\bin\ia32\PeimAfterPcd.efi
\r
555 INF IntelFrameworkModulePkg/Universal/StatusCode/Pei/PeiStatusCode.inf
\r
557 2) To add binary file described by INF file into FV, only insert the INF statement
\r
558 into the INF statements list of that FV, like this:
\r
560 INF RuleOverride=Test MdeModulePkg/Logo/Logo.inf
\r
562 Specifying how to process the binary file by defining corresponding Rule like this:
\r
563 [Rule.Common.Base.Test]
\r
564 FILE FREEFORM = $(NAMED_GUID) {

633 Class_BuildTool: support new Rules format and PCD format defined in FDF file
\r
636 1) BaseTools/Bin/Win32/build.exe
\r
637 2) BaseTools/Bin/Win32/GenFds.exe
\r
640 1) All platform's FDF file, if any, must be changed to new format.
\r
641 a) PCD format is changed from old PcdName to new PcdTokenSpaceGuid.PcdName,
\r
642 for example PcdWinNtFdBaseAddress in old FDF file will be replaced
\r
643 by gEfiNt32PkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdWinNtFdBaseAddres.
\r
644 b) Rule format adds binary file type and file postfix name support,
\r
645 and doesn't require the full file path. Examples for Peim and AcpiTable module:
\r
648 FILE PEIM = $(NAMED_GUID) {
\r
649 PEI_DEPEX Optional $(INF_OUTPUT)/$(MODULE_NAME).Depex
\r
650 PE32 $(INF_OUTPUT)/$(MODULE_NAME).efi
\r
651 UI Optional $(MODULE_NAME)
\r
652 VERSION Optional BUILD_NUM=$(BUILD_NUMBER) $(INF_VERSION)
\r
656 FILE PEIM = $(NAMED_GUID) {
\r
657 PEI_DEPEX PEI_DEPEX Optional |.Depex
\r
659 UI STRING="$(MODULE_NAME)" Optional
\r
660 VERSION STRING="$(INF_VERSION)" Optional BUILD_NUM=$(BUILD_NUMBER)
