Mike:

 Previously, ShellPkg maintainer Zhichao Gao helps to generate the binary ShellPkg.

 

Zhichao:

 Can you give the build step to generate the binary ShellPkg with Shell and MinShell?

 

Thanks

Liming

Hi Liming,

 

I agree it would be better to have a CI agent create this shell ZIP file.

 

What was the process used to create the previous ZIP files?  When I do a shell build I see some different named files.  MinShell is very small.  What flags were used.  There are also some shell commands in the shell package.  Should we add those to the ZIP file?

 

If you give me the recipe, I can work on a CI task.  We can also add RISCV64 if that is of interest as well.

 

Thanks,

 

Mike

Rebecca:

 Thanks for your reminder. Now, we have open CI. I think we can create the binary ShellPkg based on CI build result.

 

Mike:

 Can open CI upload the generated EFI image as the artifacts? If so, the binary ShellPkg can be created from CI build result.

 

Thanks

Liming

Do we have a task or reminder to generate the UEFI Shell binaries for this release, and to upload ShellBinPkg.zip to Github?

https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3178 was opened but apparently never resolved, and the latest ShellBinPkg.zip is still from the edk2-stable202002 release.

Hi, all

We will enter into Soft Feature Freeze phase on 2021-11-08. In this phase, the feature under review will not be allowed to be pushed. The feature passed review can still be merged.

 

The patch review can continue without break in edk2 community. If the patch is sent before Soft Feature Freeze, and plans to catch this stable tag, the patch contributor need reply to his patch and notify edk2 community. If the patch is sent after Soft Feature Freeze, and plans to catch this stable tag, please add edk2-stable202111 key words in the patch title and BZ, so the community know this patch target and give the feedback.

 

Below is edk2-stable202111 tag planning https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/EDK-II-Release-Planning Proposed Schedule
