Re: [PATCH] BaseTools: Library hashing fix and optimization for --hash feature

["Bob Feng" <bob.c.feng@intel.com>]

Hi Christian,

+        # Return a Boolean based on if can skip by hash, either from memory or from IO.
+        if self.Name not in GlobalData.gBuildHashSkipTracking[self.Arch]:
+            # If hashes are the same, SaveFileOnChange() will return False.
+            GlobalData.gBuildHashSkipTracking[self.Arch][self.Name] = not SaveFileOnChange(HashFile, self.GenModuleHash(), False)
+            return GlobalData.gBuildHashSkipTracking[self.Arch][self.Name]
+        else:
+            return


For SaveFileOnChange(HashFile, self.GenModuleHash(), False), the third parameter False should be True since the self.GenModuleHash() return byte types not str.

Thanks,
Bob

Subject: [PATCH] BaseTools: Library hashing fix and optimization for --hash feature

BZ: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1788
Library hashing is now supported by the --hash feature. The --hash feature implementation assumed that the hashing could be done in place once per module, but that isn't true for libraries due to the fact that they are built as dependencies. So on a clean build, we now generate the .hash after the library dependencies are complete.
Added early escape as optimization, if hash already exists in memory.
