The AmlToHex script and Posix/WindowsLike wrappers convert
an AML file to a .hex file, containing a C array storing
AML bytecode. This ".hex" file can then be included in a
C file, allowing to access the AML bytecode from this C
file.
The EDK2 build system doesn't allow to a depict dependency
orders between files of different languages. For instance,
in a module containing a ".c" file and a ".asl", the ".c"
file may or may not be built prior to the ".asl" file.
This prevents any inclusion of a generated ".hex" in a
".c" file since this later ".hex" file may or may not
have been created yet.
This patch renames the script as AmlToC. It is posted as
a separate patch to prevent git from seeing the renaming
as a deletion plus addition of a new file.
The ending line of the posix-like bin-wrapper script has
also been corrected.
This is a first step toward generating a C file containing
the AML bytecode from an ASL file. This C file will then
be handled by the EDK2 build system to generate an object
file.
Thus, no file inclusion will be required anymore. The C file
requiring the AML bytecode as a C array, and the ASL file,
will be compiled independently. The C array must be defined
as an external symbol. The linker is resolving the
reference to the C array symbol.
To summarize, the flow goes as:
-1. ASL file is compiled to AML;
-2. AML file is copied to a ".amli" intermediate file;
-3. EDK2 build system applies the rule relevant to ".amli"
files. This is, calling the "AmlToC" script, generating
a C file from the ".amli" file;
-4. EDK2 build system applies the rule relevant to C files.
This is creating an object file.
-5. EDK2 build system links the object file containing the
AML bytecode with the object file requiring it.

This patch modifies the Makefile generation not to stop
adding Makfile rules when the first final target is found.
E.g.:
If the following rules are described in build_rule.txt:
-[Rule1]: .X files generate .Y and .Z files;
-[Rule2]: .Z files generate .Z1 files.
Currently, if a File1.X file was part of the sources of a
module, only [Rule1] would be generated in the Makefile.
Indeed, there are no rules to apply to .Y files: .Y files
are a final target. However, there is still [Rule2] to
apply to .Z files.
This patch also adds a dependency between the first
ouput file of a rule and the other output files.
For instance, with the same example as above, File1.Y
and File1.Z are generated by the following rule:
File1.Y: File1.X
<Generate File1.Y>
<Generate File1.Z>
and the new dependency is:
File1.Z: File1.Y
This is necessary to keep a dependency order during the
execution of the Makefile. Indeed, .Y and .Z files are
generated by the execution of a common set of commands,
and without this rule, there is no explicit dependency
relation between them.

When the spare FV space is less than the specified threshold,

This checker is the optional.
It can be enabled by -D FV_SPARE_SPACE_THRESHOLD=10000.
Macro is the value of the spare space threshold size.
It can be decimal or hex format. If it is enabled,

The cause of the build failed is that Commit 8ddec24dea

NASM_INC contains the list of directory to include when using
the nasm assembler.
In nmake makefiles, a trailing backslash escapes the newline char
and replaces it with a space ' '. To have a literal trailing
backslash, it must be escaped with a caret '^'. This is not
necessary for GNU makefiles.
On windows platforms, for the NASM_INC macro, a caret escaping
a trailing a backslash was appended to the last included
folder regardless of the makefile type.
For instance, "/Include/" was replaced by "/Include/^\".
This is causing a build failure on windows platforms using
GNU makefiles since the caret '^' doesn't escape any chars in
GNU makefiles and is thus conserved.
"/Include^\" was replaced by "/Include\/" in nmake makefiles,
but remained "/Include/^\" in GNU makefiles.
This patch removes the caret '^' on the build using GNU makefiles.

The GenMake.py script tests the platform environment
to determine the type of makefile that needs to be
generated. If a Windows build host is detected, the
makefile generated is of Nmake type. Otherwise a
GNUmake type is generated.
Furthermore, the <TARGET>_<TAGNAME>_<ARCH>_MAKE_PATH
option in tools_def.template defines the make tool
to use.
E.g.: for VS2017 this is configured to use Nmake, cf.
*_VS2017_*_MAKE_PATH = DEF(VS2017_BIN_HOST)\nmake.exe
while for GCC5 it is setup to use GNU make.
*_GCC5_*_MAKE_PATH = DEF(GCC_HOST_PREFIX)make
This prevents using the GCC compiler toolchain on a
Windows build host.
To address this issue this patch introduces 2 factors
to determine the generated makefile output.
1. Platform -> to determine shell commands used
in makefile.
2. MakeTool -> to determine the type of makefile
that needs to be generated.

Reduce the build and env dependencies for the Structured PCD
application by removing the dependency on Common.lib that
is only built when BaseTools is built which does not
happen if pre-compiled BaseToools are used. Change the
makefile for the Structure PCD application to build all
files from sources which adds PcdValueCommon.c to the
makefile. Also remove PcdValueCommon.c from Common.lib.
With the change to the makefile for the Structured PCD
application, multiple C files are compiled. Only
PcdValueInit.c contains the extra information expected
by the error/warning message parser. Only parse the
DSC line number into an error message if there is an
error/warning in PcdValueInit.c. Errors/warnings in
other files should be passed through. This fixes a build
failure with no useful log information that was observed
when there was a compiler error in PcdValueCommon.c.
