2. Add MODULE_UNI_FILE file that contains the localized Abstract and Description of a module. a. Addresses an information gap between INF files and the UEFI Distribution Packaging Specification XML schema b. There will be an associated update to UPT in BaseTools to consume MODULE_UNI_FILE and associated UNI file during UDP creation that performs the INF -> XML conversion. c. There will be an associated update to UPT in BaseTools to produce MODULE_UNI_FILE and associated UNI file during UDP installation that performs the XML -> INF conversion. 3. Add Module Extra UNI file that provides the localized Name of a module. a. [UserExtensions.TianoCore."ExtraFiles"] provides an easy method for a module to specify extra files not listed in [Sources] or [Binaries] sections to be added to a UDP without having to list the files in the UPT package information data file. b. There will be an associated update to UPT in BaseTools to package up files listed in [UserExtensions.TianoCore."ExtraFiles"] during UDP creation. c. UNI file contains localized name of a module to go along with the localized Abstract and Description from the MODULE_UNI_FILE.

// functions for nanosecond and microsecond delays. This generic implementation
|
|
// produces a fixed TickPeriod of 100ns unit, and when the WaitForTick() service
|
|
// is called, the number of ticks passed in is converted to either nanosecond or
|
|
// microsecond units. If the number of ticks is small, then nanoseconds are used.
|
|
// If the number of ticks is large, then microseconds are used. This prevents
|
|
// overflows that could occur for long delays if only nanoseconds were used and also
|
|
// provides the greatest accuracy for small delays.
