DynamicTablesPkg: 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

DynamicTablesPkg: Add SMBIOS table generation

2025-09-30T08:27:48+00:00

Add the SMBIOS Table generator code to the DynamicTablesPkg. This change includes adding new logic to the DynamicTableManager to process and add SMBIOS tables and augmenting the existing SMBIOS Factory generator to include installing multiple SMBIOS tables. Signed-off-by: Girish Mahadevan

DynamicTablesPkg: Add GetMetadataRoot() cb to DynamicTableFactory protocol

2025-06-11T12:24:35+00:00

The newly added MetadataObjLib allows to store information either: - generated by the DynamictTablesPkg framework - provided by a ConfigurationManager - parsed from another source of information This information might be subject to validation/verification. This step can only be done once the firmware tables generated by the DynamictTablesPkg have been generated. Add a new GetMetadataRoot() callback to the EDKII_DYNAMIC_TABLE_FACTORY_PROTOCOL. This callback allows to fetch the Metadata Root, allowing to access all the Metadata information generated. This Metadata is then validated by the DynamicTableManagerDxe.

DynamicTablesPkg: Configuration Manager Protocol

2019-02-19T10:37:29+00:00

Introduce configuration manager protocol interface that is used by the dynamic tables framework core to communicate with configuration manager. Configuration manager is a platform specific module that implements the configuration manager protocol. Table generators use this interface to retrieve the hardware information from the configuration manager.
