This define determines a tool which would be used for VPD generation. EDK2 comes with one such tool, so let's try to use it. Add this to the `OvmfPkg/OvmfPkgX64.dsc` file: ``` [Defines] ... VPD_TOOL_GUID = 8C3D856A-9BE6-468E-850A-24F7A8D38E08 ``` This GUID corresponds to the GUID of the tool `VPDTOOL` defined in the `Conf/tools_def.txt`: ``` ################## # BPDG tool definitions ################## *_*_*_VPDTOOL_PATH = BPDG *_*_*_VPDTOOL_GUID = 8C3D856A-9BE6-468E-850A-24F7A8D38E08 ``` The tool `VPDTOOL` is a Python module from the folder [`BaseTools/Source/Python/BPDG/`](https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/blob/master/BaseTools/Source/Python/BPDG/) which is used via [`BaseTools/BinWrappers/PosixLike/BPDG`](https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/blob/master/BaseTools/BinWrappers/PosixLike/BPDG) wrapper on Linux. As a wrapper folder `BaseTools/BinWrappers/PosixLike` gets added to the environment `PATH` variable after the `. edksetup.sh` command, we can simply declare path for `VPDTOOL` as `BPDG`. ``` [PcdsFixedAtBuild] gEfiMdeModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdVpdBaseAddress|0x0 ``` ``` [PcdsDynamicVpd] gUefiLessonsPkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdMyDynamicVar32 | 0x40 | 0x55555555 gUefiLessonsPkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdMyDynamicVar32_1 | * | 0x66666666 ``` ``` $ git diff OvmfPkg/OvmfPkgX64.fdf diff --git a/OvmfPkg/OvmfPkgX64.fdf b/OvmfPkg/OvmfPkgX64.fdf index 5fa8c08958..be0f4b52ff 100644 --- a/OvmfPkg/OvmfPkgX64.fdf +++ b/OvmfPkg/OvmfPkgX64.fdf @@ -26,7 +26,12 @@ NumBlocks = $(FW_BLOCKS) !include VarStore.fdf.inc -$(VARS_SIZE)|$(FVMAIN_SIZE) +$(VPD_OFFSET)|$(VPD_SIZE) +gEfiMdeModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdVpdBaseAddress +FILE = $(OUTPUT_DIRECTORY)/$(TARGET)_$(TOOL_CHAIN_TAG)/FV/8C3D856A-9BE6-468E-850A-24F7A8D38E08.bin + +#$(VARS_SIZE)|$(FVMAIN_SIZE) +$(FVMAIN_OFFSET)|$(FVMAIN_SIZE) FV = FVMAIN_COMPACT ``` # Links [EDK II Build System Output File Format](https://edk2-docs.gitbook.io/edk-ii-dsc-specification/appendix_d_vpd_data_files/d1_edk_ii_build_system_output_file_format) [GUIDed Tools and PCD VPD Data](https://edk2-docs.gitbook.io/edk-ii-build-specification/7_build_environment/73_guided_tools)
