68dbca6c 2# PCD PEIM produces PCD database to manage all dynamic PCD in PEI phase and install Pcd Ppi service.\r
80408db0 3#\r
419db80b 4# This version PCD PEIM depends on the external PCD database binary file, not built in PCD data base. \r
6c74c538 5# There are two PCD PPIs as follows:\r
6# 1) PCD_PPI \r
7# It is EDKII implementation which support Dynamic/DynamicEx Pcds.\r
8# 2) EFI_PEI_PCD_PPI\r
9# It is defined by PI specification 1.2, Vol 3 which only support dynamicEx \r
10# type Pcd.\r
11# For dynamicEx type PCD, it is compatible between PCD_PPI and EFI_PEI_PCD_PPI.\r
419db80b

12# PCD PEIM driver will produce above two PPIs at same time.\r
13#\r
14# PCD database is generated as the separate binary image at build time. The binary image \r
15# will be intergrated into Firmware volume together with PCD driver. \r

22#\r
23# 1, Introduction\r
24# PCD database hold all dynamic type PCD information. The structure of PEI PCD \r
25# database is generated by build tools according to dynamic PCD usage for \r
26# specified platform.\r
27# \r
28# 2, Dynamic Type PCD\r
29# Dynamic type PCD is used for the configuration/setting which value is determined\r
30# dynamic. In contrast, the value of static type PCD (FeatureFlag, FixedPcd, \r
31# PatchablePcd) is fixed in final generated FD image in build time. \r
32# \r
33# 2.1 The "dynamic" determination means one of below cases:\r
34# a) The PCD setting value is produced by someone driver and consumed by \r
35# other driver in execution time.\r
36# b) The PCD setting value is set/get by user from FrontPage.\r
37# c) The PCD setting value is produced by platform OEM vendor in specified area.\r
38# \r
39# 2.2 According to module distribution way, dynamic PCD could be classfied as:\r
40# a) Dynamic:\r
41# If module is released in source code and will be built with platform \r
42# DSC, the dynamic PCD used by this module can be accessed as:\r
43# PcdGetxx(PcdSampleDynamicPcd); \r
44# In building platform, build tools will translate PcdSampleDynamicPcd to\r
45# pair of {Token Space Guid: Token Number} for this PCD. \r
46# b) DynamicEx:\r
47# If module is release as binary and will not pariticpate platform building,\r
48# the dynamic PCD used by this module need be accessed as:\r
49# PcdGetxxEx(gEfiMyTokenspaceGuid, PcdSampleDynamicPcd)\r
50# Developer need explicity gives {Token Space Guid:Token Number} as parameter\r
51# in writting source code.\r
52# \r
53# 2.3 According to PCD value's storage method, dynamic PCD could be classfied as:\r
54# a) Default Storage: \r
55# - The PCD value is stored in PCD database maintained by PCD driver in boot \r
56# time memory.\r
57# - This type is used for communication between PEIM/DXE driver, DXE/DXE \r
58# driver. But all set/get value will be losted after boot-time memory \r
59# is turn off.\r
60# - [PcdsDynamicDefault] is used as section name for this type PCD in \r
61# platform DSC file. [PcdsDynamicExDefault] is used for dynamicEx type PCD.\r
62# \r
63# b) Variable Storage: \r
64# - The PCD value is stored in variable area. \r
65# - As default storage type, this type PCD could be used for PEI/DXE driver\r
419db80b 66# communication. But beside it, this type PCD could also be used to store \r
b6b3dc44 67# the value associate with a HII setting via variable interface.\r
68# - In PEI phase, the PCD value could only be got but can not be set due \r
69# to variable area is readonly.\r
70# - [PcdsDynamicHii] is used as section name for this type PCD in platform \r
71# DSC file. [PcdsDynamicExHii] is for dynamicEx type PCD.\r
72# \r
73# c) OEM specificed storage area:\r
74# - The PCD value is stored in OEM specified area which base address is \r
75# specified by a FixedAtBuild PCD setting - PcdVpdBaseAddress.\r
76# - The area is read only for PEI and DXE phase.\r
77# - [PcdsDynamicVpd] is used as section name for this type PCD in platform \r
78# DSC file. [PcdsDynamicExVpd] is for dynamicex type PCD.\r
79# \r
80# 2.4 When and how to use dynamic PCD\r
81# Module developer do not care the used PCD is dynamic or static when writting\r
82# source code/INF. Dynamic PCD and dynamic type is pointed by platform integrator \r
83# in platform DSC file. Please ref section 2.3 to get matching between dynamic\r
84# PCD type and section name in DSC file.\r
85# \r
86# 3, PCD database:\r
87# Although dynamic PCD could be in different storage type as above description, \r
88# but the basic information and default value for all dynamic PCD is hold\r
89# by PCD database maintained by PEI/DXE driver.\r
90# \r
91# As the whole EFI BIOS boot path is divided into PEI/DXE phase, the PCD database\r
92# also is divided into Pei/Dxe database maintaied by PcdPeim/PcdDxe driver separatly.\r
93# To make PcdPeim's driver image smaller, PEI PCD database only hold all dynamic\r
94# PCD information used in PEI phase or use in both PEI/DXE phase. And DXE PCD\r
95# database contains all PCDs used in PEI/DXE phase in memory.\r
96# \r
419db80b 97# Build tool will generate PCD database into the separate binary file for \r
b6b3dc44 98# PEI/DXE PCD driver according to dynamic PCD section in platform DSC file. \r
99# \r
100# 3.1 PcdPeim and PcdDxe\r
101# PEI PCD database is maintained by PcdPeim driver run from flash. PcdPeim driver\r
419db80b 102# build guid hob in temporary memory and copy the binary data base from flash \r
b6b3dc44 103# to temporary memory for PEI PCD database. \r
104# DXE PCD database is maintained by PcdDxe driver.At entry point of PcdDxe driver,\r
105# a new PCD database is allocated in boot-time memory which including all\r
106# PEI PCD and DXE PCD entry.\r
107# \r
108# Pcd driver should run as early as possible before any other driver access\r
109# dynamic PCD's value. PEI/DXE "Apriori File" mechanism make it possible by\r
110# making PcdPeim/PcdDxe as first dispatching driver in PEI/DXE phase.\r
111# \r
112# 3.2 Token space Guid/Token number, Platform token, Local token number\r

131# \r
132# \r
133# 3.2.1 Pair of Token space guid + Token number\r
134# Any type PCD is identified by pair of "TokenSpaceGuid + TokeNumber". But it\r
135# is not easy maintained by PCD driver, and hashed token number will make \r
136# searching slowly. \r
137#\r
138# 3.2.2 Platform Token Number\r
139# "Platform token number" concept is introduced for mapping to a pair of \r
140# "TokenSpaceGuid + TokenNumber". The platform token number is generated by \r
141# build tool in autogen.h and all of them are continual in a platform scope \r
142# started from 1.(0 meaning invalid internal token number)\r
143# With auto-generated "platform token number", PcdGet(PcdSampleDynamicPcd)\r
144# in source code is translated to LibPcdGet(_PCD_TOKEN_PcdSampleDynamicPcd) \r
145# in autogen.h.\r
146# Notes: The mapping between pair of "tokenspace guid + token number" and\r
147# "internal token number" need build tool establish, so "platform token number"\r
148# mechanism is not suitable for binary module which use DynamicEx type PCD.\r
149# To access a dynamicEx type PCD, pair of "token space guid/token number" all need\r
150# to be specificed for PcdSet/PcdGet accessing macro.\r
151# \r
152# Platform Token Number is started from 1, and inceased continuous. From whole \r
153# platform scope, there are two zones: PEI Zone and DXE Zone\r
154# | Platform Token Number\r
155# ----------|----------------------------------------------------------------\r
156# PEI Zone: | 1 ~ PEI_LOCAL_TOKEN_NUMBER\r
157# DXE Zone: | (PEI_LOCAL_TOKEN_NUMBER + 1) ~ (PEI_LOCAL_TOKEN_NUMBER + DXE_LOCAL_TOKEN_NUMBER)\r
158# \r
159# 3.2.3 Local Token Number\r
160# To fast searching a PCD entry in PCD database, PCD driver translate \r
161# platform token number to local token number via a mapping table.\r
162# For binary DynamicEx type PCD, there is a another mapping table to translate\r
163# "token space guid + token number" to local token number directly.\r
164# Local token number is identifier for all internal interface in PCD PEI/DXE\r
165# driver.\r
166# \r
167# A local token number is a 32-bit value in following meaning:\r
168# 32 ------------- 28 ---------- 24 -------- 0\r
169# | PCD type mask | Datum Type | Offset |\r
170# +-----------------------------------------+\r
171# where:\r
172# PCd type mask: indicate Pcd type from following macro:\r
173# PCD_TYPE_DATA\r
174# PCD_TYPE_HII\r
175# PCD_TYPE_VPD\r
176# PCD_TYPE_SKU_ENABLED\r
177# PCD_TYPE_STRING\r
178# Datum Type : indicate PCD vaue type from following macro:\r
179# PCD_DATUM_TYPE_POINTER\r
180# PCD_DATUM_TYPE_UINT8\r
181# PCD_DATUM_TYPE_UINT16\r
182# PCD_DATUM_TYPE_UINT32\r
183# PCD_DATUM_TYPE_UINT64\r
184# Offset : indicate the related offset of PCD value in PCD database array.\r
185# Based on local token number, PCD driver could fast determine PCD type, value\r
186# type and get PCD entry from PCD database.\r
187# \r

188# 3.3 PCD Database binary file\r
189# PCD Database binary file will be created at build time as the standalone binary image. \r
190# To understand the binary image layout, PCD Database C structure is still generated \r
191# as comments by build tools in PCD driver's autogen.h/\r
b6b3dc44 192# autogen.c file. In generated C structure, following information is stored:\r
193# - ExMapTable: This table is used translate a binary dynamicex type PCD's \r
194# "tokenguid + token" to local token number.\r
195# - LocalTokenNumberTable:\r
196# This table stores all local token number in array, use "Internal\r
197# token number" as array index to get PCD entry's offset fastly.\r
198# - SizeTable: This table stores the size information for all PCD entry.\r
199# - GuidTable: This table stores guid value for DynamicEx's token space,\r
419db80b 200# HII type PCD's variable GUID.\r
b6b3dc44 201# - SkuIdTable: TBD\r
202# - SystemSkuId: TBD\r
203# - PCD value structure: \r
204# Every PCD has a value record in PCD database. For different\r
205# datum type PCD has different record structure which will be \r
206# introduced in 3.3.1\r
207# \r
208# In a PCD database structure, there are two major area: Init and UnInit. \r
209# Init area is use stored above PCD internal structure such as ExMapTable, \r
210# LocalTokenNumberTable etc and the (default) value of PCD which has default \r
211# value specified in platform DSC file.\r
212# Unint area is used stored the value of PCD which has no default value in\r
213# platform DSC file, the value of NULL, 0 specified in platform DSC file can\r
214# be seemed as "no default value".\r
215# \r
216# 3.3.1 Simple Sample PCD Database C Structure\r
217# A general sample of PCD database structue is as follows:\r
218# typedef struct _PCD_DATABASE {\r
219# typedef struct _PCD_DATABASE_INIT {\r
220# //===== Following is PCD database internal maintain structures\r
221# DYNAMICEX_MAPPING ExMapTable[PEI_EXMAPPING_TABLE_SIZE];\r
222# UINT32 LocalTokenNumberTable[PEI_LOCAL_TOKEN_NUMBER_TABLE_SIZE];\r
223# GUID GuidTable[PEI_GUID_TABLE_SIZE];\r
224# SIZE_INFO SizeTable[PEI_SIZE_TABLE_SIZE];\r
225# UINT8 SkuIdTable[PEI_SKUID_TABLE_SIZE];\r
226# SKU_ID SystemSkuId;\r
227# \r
228# //===== Following is value structure for PCD with default value\r
229# ....\r
230# ....\r
231# ....\r
232# } Init;\r
233# typedef struct _PCD_DATABSE_UNINIT {\r
234# //==== Following is value structure for PCD without default value\r
235# ....\r
236# ....\r
237# } UnInit;\r
238# }\r
239# \r
240# 3.3.2 PCD value structure in PCD database C structure\r
241# The value's structure is generated by build tool in PCD database C structure.\r
242# The PCDs in different datum type has different value structure.\r
243# \r
244# 3.3.2.1 UINT8/UINT16/UINT32/UINT64 datum type PCD\r
245# The C structure for these datum type PCD is just a UINT8/UINT16/UINT32/UINT64\r
246# data member in PCD database, For example:\r
247# UINT16 PcdHardwareErrorRecordLevel_d3705011_bc19_4af7_be16_f68030378c15_VariableDefault_0;\r
248# Above structure is generated by build tool, the member name is "PcdCName_Guidvalue"\r
249# Member type is UINT16 according to PcdHardwareErrorRecordLevel declaration\r
250# in DEC file.\r
251# \r
252# 3.3.2.2 VOID* datum type PCD\r
253# The value of VOID* datum type PCD is a UINT8/UINT16 array in PCD database.\r
254# \r
255# 3.3.2.2.1 VOID* - string type\r
256# If the default value for VOID* datum type PCD like L"xxx", the PCD is \r
257# used for unicode string, and C structure of this datum type PCD is \r
258# UINT16 string array in PCD database, for example:\r
259# UINT16 StringTable[29];\r
260# The number of 29 in above sample is max size of a unicode string.\r
261# \r
262# If the default value for VOID* datum type PCD like "xxx", the PCD is\r
263# used for ascii string, and C structure of this datum type PCD is \r
264# UINT8 string array in PCD database, for example:\r
265# UINT8 StringTable[20];\r
266# The number of 20 in above sample is max size of a ascii string.\r
267# \r
268# 3.3.2.2.2 VOID* - byte array\r
269# If the default value of VOID* datum type PCD like {'0x29', '0x01', '0xf2'}\r
270# the PCD is used for byte array. The generated structrue is same as \r
271# above ascii string table,\r
272# UINT8 StringTable[13];\r
273# The number of 13 in above sample is max size of byte array.\r
274# \r
275# 3.3.3 Some utility structures in PCD Database\r
276# 3.3.3.1 GuidTable\r
277# GuidTable array is used to store all related GUID value in PCD database:\r
