回复: 回复: [edk2-devel] [PATCH v4 13/14] MdeModulePkg/VariableStandaloneMm: Set PcdFlashNvStorageVariableBase to Pcd

["gaoliming" <gaoliming@byosoft.com.cn>]

Ilias:
 If you check other Variable module INF file, you can find they all use [Pcd] section. Module provides the flexibility instead of the limitation. In fact, variable module code has no fixed pcd usage. Platform can decide which PCD type should be used. In future, if other PCD is required to be configured as patchable in module, you don't need to modify variable INF again. 

Thanks
