Notes: ELFGCC is defined in <Workspace>/Conf/tools_def.txt file. This tool chain use native gcc/binutil instead of
|

cross-compiler like UNIXGCC tool chain.
|

|
||||
On Mac OS X you can cd into UnixPkg directory and execute ./build.sh to build. This does not require
|
||||
setting up the environment like running the build command. Note Snow Leopard or later is required.
|
||||
This script should also work for any *INUX, but has not been tested.
|
||||
|
||||
./build.sh run will lanuch the emulator in gdb so you can source level debug via gdb.

Notes:
|
||||
=====
|
||||
On Mac OS X Snow Leopard you can use Xcode 3.2 as a GUI debugger.
|
||||
Launch Xcode and open UnixPkg/Xcode/xcode_project/xcode_project.xcodeproj
|
||||
Under the build menu chose build and debug. shift-cmd-B shows the build results.
|
||||
|
||||
Under most *INUX the EFI executables are placed in the emulated EFI memory by the EFI PE/COFF loader
|
||||
but dlopen() is used to also load the image into the process to support source level debug.
|
||||
The entry point for the image is moved from the EFI emulator memory into the dlopen() image. This
|
||||
is not the case for Mac OS X. On Mac OS X a debugger script is used and the real EFI images in
|
||||
the emulator are the ones being debugged.
|
||||
|
||||
Also on Mac OS X the stack alignment requirements for IA-32 are 16 bytes and this is more strict
|
||||
than the EFI ABI. To work around this gasket code was introduced to ensure the stack is always
|
||||
16 byte aligned when making any POSIX call on Mac OS X.
|
||||
|
||||
To build PE/COFF images with Xcode 3.2 and extra tool call mtoc is required to convert Mach-O
|
||||
images into PE/COFF images. The tool only supports EFI PE/COFF images and the instructions on
|
||||
how to download it are on the edk2 website.
