ArmPlatformPkg: Replace include guards with #pragma once

2026-02-23T21:01:28+00:00

Replace traditional `#ifndef`/`#define`/`#endif` include guards with `#pragma` once. `#pragma once` is a widely supported preprocessor directive that prevents header files from being included multiple times. It is supported by all toolchains used to build edk2: GCC, Clang/LLVM, and MSVC. Compared to macro-based include guards, `#pragma once`: - Eliminates the risk of macro name collisions or copy/paste errors where two headers inadvertently use the same guard macro. - Eliminate inconsistency in the way include guard macros are named (e.g., some files use `__FILE_H__`, others use `FILE_H_`, etc.). - Reduces boilerplate (three lines replaced by one). - Avoids polluting the macro namespace with guard symbols. - Can improve build times as the preprocessor can skip re-opening the file entirely, rather than re-reading it to find the matching `#endif` ("multiple-include optimization"). - Note that some compilers may already optimize traditional include guards, by recognzining the idiomatic pattern. This change is made acknowledging that overall portability of the code will technically be reduced, as `#pragma once` is not part of the C/C++ standards. However, this is considered acceptable given: 1. edk2 already defines a subset of supported compilers in BaseTools/Conf/tools_def.template, all of which have supported `#pragma once` for over two decades. 2. There have been concerns raised to the project about inconsistent include guard naming and potential macro collisions. Approximate compiler support dates: - MSVC: Supported since Visual C++ 4.2 (1996) - GCC: Supported since 3.4 (2004) (http://gnu.ist.utl.pt/software/gcc/gcc-3.4/changes.html) - Clang (LLVM based): Since initial release in 2007 Signed-off-by: Michael Kubacki

ArmPlatformPkg/ArmPlatformLib: Drop unused MPCore routines

2024-08-30T08:01:28+00:00

Some of the boilerplate in ArmPlatformLib is only relevant when entering UEFI on multiple cores, and this is no longer supported. So retire the associated helper routines. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel

ArmPlatformPkg: Fix some spelling mistakes found by cspell

2024-08-01T19:53:47+00:00

When cspell is installed (via `npm install cspell`), CI checks for spelling mistakes. There are currently a very large number of them: some are genuine mistakes while others are words or acryonyms that cspell doesn't know. Fix a few of the misspellings in ArmPlatformPkg.

ArmPlatformPkg: Retire NorFlashDxe driver

2022-11-06T15:21:12+00:00

The NorFlashDxe driver in ArmPlatformPkg was shared between development platforms built by ARM Ltd, and virtual platforms that were once modeled after Versatile Express, but have very little in common with actual bare metal implementations. Both sides have migrated to a domain specific version of the driver, so we can retire the old one. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel Reviewed-by: Leif Lindholm Reviewed-by: Sunil V L

This patch fixes the following Ecc reported error: File header doesn't exist File header comment missing the ""Copyright"" Even though a copyright is present in the header file, the leading '*' char prevents the Ecc tool from detecting it. According to the edk2 coding specifcation, section 5.2.3 "File Heading", there should not be leading '*' char. Signed-off-by: Pierre Gondois Reviewed-by: Ard Biesheuvel Reviewed-by: Sami Mujawar

This patch fixes the following Ecc reported error: Variable name does not follow the rules: 1. First character should be upper case 2. Must contain lower case characters 3. No white space characters 4. Global variable name must start with a 'g' Indeed, according to the EDK II C Coding Standards Specification, s5.6.2.2 "Enumerated Types" and s4.3.4 Function and Data Names, elements of an enumerated type shoud be a mixed upper- and lower-case text. A max element is also added, as advised by s5.6.2.2.3 of the same document.
