BaseTools: Add FMMT Python Tool

2022-05-06T04:22:21+00:00

The FMMT python tool is used for firmware files operation, which has the Fv/FFs-based 'View'&'Add'&'Delete'&'Replace' operation function: 1.Parse a FD(Firmware Device) / FV(Firmware Volume) / FFS(Firmware Files) 2.Add a new FFS into a FV file (both included in a FD file or not) 3.Replace an FFS in a FV file with a new FFS file 4.Delete an FFS in a FV file (both included in a FD file or not) 5.Extract the FFS from a FV file (both included in a FD file or not) This version of FMMT Python tool does not support PEIM rebase feature, this feature will be added in future update. Currently the FMMT C tool is saved in edk2-staging repo, but its quality and coding style can't meet the Edk2 quality, which is hard to maintain (Hard/Duplicate Code; Regression bugs; Restrict usage). The new Python version keeps same functions with origin C version. It has higher quality and better coding style, and it is much easier to extend new functions and to maintain.

BaseTools: Convert Split tool to python

2021-01-21T10:19:09+00:00

REF: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3165 There are 2 reasons to convert Split tool from C to Python. 1. We are in the process of moving the Basetools Python code to a separate repository. But there still are many C tools under edk2/BaseTools. To make all Basetools be in the separate repo, we can convert the C tools to Python tools. 2. The original Split tool is very slow. This python tool can reduce 90% time.

BaseTools: Fix BrotliCompress tool issue

2020-11-13T06:23:56+00:00

REF: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2946 This is the regression issue in BaseTools BrotliCompress after Brotli is changed to submodule. BrotliCompress should store the source size and scratch buffer size into the header of the compressed binary data. But now, BrotliCompress doesn't store them. So, BrotliDecompress can't work. To fix this issue, BrotliCompress tool main() function should be provided. It needs to support the options of -e, -d, -o file, -g gap, -q level.

BaseTools: Rename AmlToHex script to AmlToC

2020-07-02T10:09:17+00:00

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. Signed-off-by: Pierre Gondois Suggested-by: Tomas Pilar Reviewed-by: Bob Feng

BaseTools: Script for converting .aml to .hex

2020-02-06T13:52:11+00:00

The "-tc" option of the iasl compiler allows to generate a .hex file containing a C array storing AML bytecode. An online discussion suggested that this "-tc" option was specific to the iasl compiler and it shouldn't be relied on. This conversation is available at: https://edk2.groups.io/g/devel/topic/39786201#49659 A way to address this issue is to implement a compiler independent script that takes an AML file as input, and generates a .hex file. This patch implements a Python script that converts an AML file to a .hex file, containing a C array storing AML bytecode. This scipt has been tested with the AML output from the following compilers supported by the EDKII implementation: * Intel ASL compiler * Microsoft ASL compiler Signed-off-by: Pierre Gondois Reviewed-by: Bob Feng
