Instead of relying on VirtFdtDxe to populate the GIC related PCDs, move
this handling to our implementation of ArmGicArchLib, and retrieve the
required DT info using the new FDT client protocol.

This removes one of the reasons we need to load VirtFdtDxe first using
an 'A PRIORI' declaration in the platform FDF.

Urgh.

I guess the conversion (together with the next patch) should be
"straightforward". However, before I try to validate the code movement,
I have a small and a big question.

(21) small one: what do you need <libfdt.h>, FdtLib, and (consequently)
EmbeddedPkg/EmbeddedPkg.dec for?

... Nevermind, coming back from the source code below, I understand.
I'll make a suggestion down there. Consider (21) a no-op.

(22) The big question is this: how can I determine where this library
instance is used?

Namely, before the conversion, PcdGic*Base would be set only once (in
VirtFdtDxe). That means two things: (a) it is set *for sure*, for any
DXE driver that might want to look at the PCDs, plus (b) the PCDs are
not set more than once.

I can't see how this conversion guarantees either.

Let's start with question (b). (Breaking (b) is not a catastrophe, but
it's ugly.)

I tried to round up users of the lib class ArmGicArchLib. I found two
client INF files:

- ArmPkg/Drivers/ArmGic/ArmGicLib.inf
- ArmPkg/Drivers/ArmGic/ArmGicSecLib.inf

These are themselves library instances (with MODULE_TYPE=SEC, WTF?) So,
I guess I have to find the clients of the lib class ArmGicLib. They are:

- ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/LinuxLoader.inf

  We use this in our ARM (32-bit) builds. It means whenever this app is
  run, it will re-set the PCDs. :/ ... Although, it looks like the
  application only depends on ArmGicLib in the AARCH64 case, precisely
  which architecture we don't build the application for. Okay,
  ultimately, but confusing...

- ArmPkg/Drivers/ArmGic/ArmGicDxe.inf

  I guess this is our main target. This one is therefore certainly
  correct to set the PCDs.

- ArmPlatformPkg/ArmVExpressPkg/ArmVExpressDxe/ArmFvpDxe.inf

  We never include this driver. Okay.

- ArmPkg/Library/ArmGicArchLib/ArmGicArchLib.inf
- ArmPkg/Library/ArmGicArchSecLib/ArmGicArchSecLib.inf
- ArmVirtPkg/Library/ArmVirtGicArchLib/ArmVirtGicArchLib.inf

  What the heck, all of these library instances are for class
  ArmGicArchLib, which is what I started out with! We actually use the
  last one (this patch modifies exactly it); it creates a circular
  library dependency between ArmGicLib and ArmGicArchLib. Sweet $DEITY.

  Anyway, since I started out tracking down ArmGicArchLib, and we don't
  use the first two of the above, they don't add new things to follow.

- ArmPlatformPkg/Library/DebugSecExtraActionLib/DebugSecExtraActionLib.inf

  We have a library class resolution to this, in "ArmVirt.dsc.inc", for
  ArmPlatformSecExtraActionLib. That's a dead-end, thankfully; grepping
  for the lib class, only
  "ArmPlatformPkg/ArmVExpressPkg/Library/ArmVExpressSecLibCTA9x4/ArmVExpressSecLib.inf"
  depends on it, which I can't imagine we use. The resolution should be
  dropped from "ArmVirtPkg/ArmVirt.dsc.inc", probably.

- ArmPlatformPkg/PrePeiCore/PrePeiCoreMPCore.inf
- ArmPlatformPkg/PrePi/PeiMPCore.inf

  These are SEC modules, and we don't use them. Okay.

So, ultimately, the only user of this library instance is
"ArmPkg/Drivers/ArmGic/ArmGicDxe.inf". ... Indeed, checking the build
report file for ArmVirtQemu (AARCH64), I find ArmVirtGicArchLib (and
ArmGicLib too) only under "ArmPkg/Drivers/ArmGic/ArmGicDxe.inf".

Question (22)(b) is therefore cleared; the PCDs in question will only be
set once, when "ArmPkg/Drivers/ArmGic/ArmGicDxe.inf" is dispatched.


Let's see (22)(a): can anything consume these PCDs before
"ArmPkg/Drivers/ArmGic/ArmGicDxe.inf" sets them?

- ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/LinuxLoader.inf

  Same as above: uses the PCDs only on AARCH64, when we don't build it.

- ArmPkg/Drivers/ArmGic/ArmGicDxe.inf

  The library sets the PCDs for it in time.

- ArmPlatformPkg/ArmVExpressPkg/Library/ArmVExpressSecLibRTSM/ArmVExpressSecLib.inf

  We don't use this (it wants the PCDs as Fixed, anyway).

- ArmPlatformPkg/Library/DebugSecExtraActionLib/DebugSecExtraActionLib.inf
- ArmPlatformPkg/PrePeiCore/PrePeiCoreMPCore.inf
- ArmPlatformPkg/PrePi/PeiMPCore.inf

  Ditto for these three.

Alright! It was exhausting to verify it (you could have written it up
too... :)), but the conversion seems safe. Ultimately, as (22), I'll
make this request:

(22) please document in the commit message, that in all our builds, only
"ArmPkg/Drivers/ArmGic/ArmGicDxe.inf" links against this library, and
only "ArmPkg/Drivers/ArmGic/ArmGicDxe.inf" consumes the PCDs.

... This is actually a "standard requirement" for the rest of the
plugin-like patches, more or less. Do you think (knowing the rest of the
series) that it might make sense for you to post a v2 after my comments
thus far? Mainly, this "usage analysis" is exhausting, and for the rest
of the series, I'd prefer to validate yours, not construct mine. :)

Anyway, let's see the rest of this patch (INF file moved to the top --
can you perhaps adopt a diff-order file, for formatting the patches?):

(23) I don't think it's necessary. You use neither ImageHandle nor
SystemTable below. The client type restriction (on the LIBRARY_CLASS
line below) suffices.

(24) This line is too long.

Can you double-check the series that added lines don't exceed 79
characters? (I think "BaseTools/Scripts/PatchCheck.py" might help you
verify this -- see a7e173b07a1e.) I guess I shouldn't obsess about code
that is moved, but code you write genuinely for this work shouldn't be
too wide.

(25) Given the DepEx, you might want to replace this with an
ASSERT_EFI_ERROR(). Up to you.

(26) The indentation of the arguments is not correct; they should be
aligned with "FindCompatibleNodeReg", plus one or two spaces.

Can you re-check the series for such indentation problems?

Sigh. So this is the answer to (21). Here's another proposal then:

(27) can we perhaps dispense with the byte order conversion helpers from
libfdt? I mean, it is annoying to include the FDT library *just* for
this, when we have our shiny new protocol ready, for the rest of the
device tree massaging. So the idea is:

- If (knowing the rest of the series) you deem that libfdt is frequently
  needed in addition to the new protocol *because* we frequently
  manipulate the DTB beyond the capabilities of the new protocol (and in
  a way that is hard to extract into the protocol), then sure, libfdt
  and the protocol should co-exist in client code, and I have nothing
  against fdt64_to_cpu()

- OTOH, if we mostly (only?) include LibFdt on top of the new protocol,
  in the rest of the series too, because we can't live without
  fdt64_to_cpu() and friends, then I suggest to remove the LibFdt
  dependency, and exploit that FDT internals are always big-endian,
  while UEFI is always little-endian. Therefore, use the SwapBytes64()
  function (and friends) directly, from BaseLib.

What do you think?

This looks good to me (with the above remarks in mind).

FWIW, I personally subscribe to two indentation styles in edk2: the
official one, and my own "compressed" variant of it. They are:

  Status = FdtClient->FindCompatibleNodeReg (
                        FdtClient,
                        "arm,cortex-a15-gic",
                        &Reg,
                        &RegElemSize,
                        &RegSize
                        );

That is, no argument on the first line, indentation as described above,
closing paren on separate line. Or (mine):

  Status = FdtClient->FindCompatibleNodeReg (FdtClient,
                        "arm,cortex-a15-gic", &Reg, &RegElemSize,
                        &RegSize);

Which is same as yours, except the arguments are not aligned with the
first argument, but two columns to the right of the member function's name.

Thanks!
Laszlo

Indeed. We would *love* the kill the built in linux loader (bill), and
we don't include it in any AArch64 builds by default. However, like
the ARM BDS, it is used in the wild, and we can't simply remove it
just yet. In fact, now that my 32-bit ARM stub support is upstream, we
should probably drop it from ArmVirtQemu altogether (since QEMU
already has a built in linux loader if you run it without UEFI)

I wondered about that. If the only difference is the prototype of the
constructor, then I should probable just drop this hunk (and the one
that changes the constructor signature)

I think SwapBytes () should be preferred, and I think that this is the
only reason the dependency remains. The reason is that the new drivers
don't have access to the DeviceTreeBaseAddress PCD, so many of the
non-trivial libfdt functions are not even callable by them

Right.

Anyway, as we've repeatedly determined from both practice and the INF
file spec, the MODULE_TYPE for a library instance doesn't seem to affect
anything beyond the constructor's signature (if any). So, let's leave
these the way they are.

I certainly support the full removal of the linux loader app from
ArmVirtQemu; if it eases patch review for me, then it's already worth it
(for me). Feel free to post a separate patch for it, I guess.

I mentioned the build report file, but I guess it bears some stressing
-- it is super helpful. I don't like to rely on the build report file
exclusively, but it is very good for verifying a hypothesis.

Even the PCD usage (see (22)(a)) can be confirmed with it!

Heh, very good point!

So, I guess I'll await your v3, re-check patches 01-07 (wherever I had
comments), and resume with v3 08/21. Is that alright?

I certainly don't *want* to ignore it, but I think we have identified
several aspects that may affect many of the remaining patches:

(a) UINT32 vs. UINTN output parameters in the protocol interface

(b) LibFdt usage / SwapBytes()

(c) (important:) for the commit messages, tracking down the clients of
    the new plugin library instances that set PCDs (to avoid
    multi-setting), recursively; plus tracking down all the consumers
    of those PCDs (to ensure they will all see the updated PCD values).

(d) line lengths

(e) argument indentation in function calls

Issues (a), (b), (d) and (e) will continue tripping me up in the review,
and you can fix them up without me actually identifying each individual
location.

Issue (c) requires me to spend multiple tens of minutes per affected
patch. I would prefer if you spent those minutes, wrote up your findings
in the commit messages, so I'd only need verify your findings, not find
them myself from scratch.

In other words, the above issues should be fixed not just for the sake
of the final code and messages that get into the repository, but also in
order to help me review the rest of the series.

Normally I do prefer to review all patches in a series, before asking
for the next version, but I believe the above problems might affect the
rest of the patches. My main worry is that if I keep getting tripped up
by them, I will get de-sensitivised for version 3, and maybe miss
something else that would be important.

Consider, if I review the rest of v2, and point out twenty more
instances of (d) and (e), then when I review v3, I will have to verify
whether you fixed up every single one of those instances. This wastes a
lot of gray matter. :) This is the kind of issue that you can locate
yourself in the rest of the series (now that I've pointed out a few
instances), so they wouldn't even exist to begin with, when I looked at
the rest of the patches, in v3, for the first time.

Of course, I could be wrong too. If you assure me that issues (a)
through (e) will probably not impede my review in the remaining v2
patches :), then I'm more than happy to continue reviewing v2!

To repeat: saving time for me (at the cost of your time) is just the
small goal. The big goal is to preserve my sensitivity to your patches.

Thanks.
Laszlo

Dude, I was kidding. I haven't even sent out my v2 yet, the patches
you have been looking at were v1.

Sigh.

Did I mention de-sensitivization?... ;)

I guess I'm lolling at myself. :)
