REF:https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2522

The 12 patches in this series add the VariablePolicy feature to the core,
deprecate Edk2VarLock (while adding a compatibility layer to reduce code
churn), and integrate the VariablePolicy libraries and protocols into
Variable Services.

Since the integration requires multiple changes, including adding libraries,
a protocol, an SMI communication handler, and VariableServices integration,
the patches are broken up by individual library additions and then a final
integration. Security-sensitive changes like bypassing Authenticated
Variable enforcement are also broken out into individual patches so that
attention can be called directly to them.

Platform porting instructions are described in this wiki entry:
https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/VariablePolicy-Protocol---Enhanced-Method-for-Managing-Variables#platform-porting

Discussion of the feature can be found in multiple places throughout
the last year on the RFC channel, staging branches, and in devel.

Most recently, this subject was discussed in this thread:
https://edk2.groups.io/g/devel/message/53712
(the code branches shared in that discussion are now out of date, but the
whitepapers and discussion are relevant).

As noted by Bret, this series is affected by the recent PI 1.7 errata A 
changes, which superseded the MM communicate protocol with MM 
communicate 2. I will try to have my resulting changes in asap, but I 
suppose this series will need some minor rework. (MM communicate2 just 
takes an extra VirtualAddress argument, which is simply the virtual 
address of the buffer whose address is passed by PA only in MM communicate)

(1) This wiki article is helpful, thanks.

I have one remark: there's a heading saying "VarCheckPolicyLib NULL
Instance":

https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/VariablePolicy-Protocol---Enhanced-Method-for-Managing-Variables#varcheckpolicylib-null-instance

I think what's meant is "NULL class", not "NULL instance".

(2) The following platform DSC files in edk2 include the non-SMM
variable driver
("MdeModulePkg/Universal/Variable/RuntimeDxe/VariableRuntimeDxe.inf"),
but they are not modified by this patch series:

ArmVirtPkg/ArmVirtQemu.dsc
ArmVirtPkg/ArmVirtQemuKernel.dsc
ArmVirtPkg/ArmVirtXen.dsc
OvmfPkg/OvmfXen.dsc
UefiPayloadPkg/UefiPayloadPkgIa32.dsc
UefiPayloadPkg/UefiPayloadPkgIa32X64.dsc

I'm asking that you please (a) include a patch for ArmVirtPkg, (b)
update the OvmfPkg patch to cover "OvmfXen.dsc" too.

Not sure about the UefiPayloadPkg platforms; please ask their maintainers.

(I've CC'd the OvmfXen and UefiPayloadPkg maintainers/reviewers.)

Thanks,
Laszlo

(3) Could the wiki article please say a few words about what modules are
supposed to turn this mechanism into an actual policy? I.e., what
modules / use cases would consume the new protocol?

In this series, the only INF file that gets a reference to the new
protocol but is not related to the implementation of the protocol is
VariablePolicyFuncTestApp.

Thanks,
Laszlo

(4) Can you please run SetupGit.py in your edk2 clone, for the future?

It will mark the DEC, DSC, etc "ini-style" files with the "diff=ini"
attribute. Furthermore, it will set the "xfuncname" knob for the
"diff=ini"-marked files.

As a result, when you format a patch that modifies e.g. a DSC file, the
"@@" hunk headers will display the section being modified. For example:

> @@ -492,6 +496,9 @@ [PcdsFixedAtBuild]
>    gEfiMdeModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdMaxVolatileVariableSize|0x40000
>  !endif
>
> +  # Optional: Omit if VariablePolicy should be always-on.
> +  gEfiMdeModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdAllowVariablePolicyEnforcementDisable|TRUE
> +
>    gEfiMdeModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdVpdBaseAddress|0x0
>
>    gEfiMdePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdReportStatusCodePropertyMask|0x07

Note that the "@@" hunk header now states "[PcdsFixedAtBuild]". It tells
me as a reviewer about the access method of the PCD that was chosen for
OvmfPkg.

Such hunk headers improve reviewer throughput quite a bit.

Thanks,
Laszlo

To keep each commit build pass, the patch set should first add new library instance, 
then add the library instance into each platform DSC, last update Variable driver to consume new library instance. 

This patch also impacts the platforms in edk2-platforms. If you expect the platform maintainer to update their platform DSC, 
please send the mail and let them aware this change or submit BZ to track the changes in edk2-platforms.

While most of the feedback in the series is relevant for the author 
(Bret), this is a change I will make for the patches I generate.

Thanks,

(1) This wiki article is helpful, thanks.

I have one remark: there's a heading saying "VarCheckPolicyLib NULL
Instance":

https://nam06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Ftianocore%2Ftianocore.github.io%2Fwiki%2FVariablePolicy-Protocol---Enhanced-Method-for-Managing-Variables%23varcheckpolicylib-null-instance&amp;data=02%7C01%7Cbret.barkelew%40microsoft.com%7C98d423482cea4e143c4308d7f66b0927%7C72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7C1%7C0%7C637248811886928541&amp;sdata=4qTYEB6%2F3uJnLZ9MjRHODQGaaPq6zZEp7bFlCXEP7gI%3D&amp;reserved=0

I think what's meant is "NULL class", not "NULL instance".

(2) The following platform DSC files in edk2 include the non-SMM
variable driver
("MdeModulePkg/Universal/Variable/RuntimeDxe/VariableRuntimeDxe.inf"),
but they are not modified by this patch series:

ArmVirtPkg/ArmVirtQemu.dsc
ArmVirtPkg/ArmVirtQemuKernel.dsc
ArmVirtPkg/ArmVirtXen.dsc
OvmfPkg/OvmfXen.dsc
UefiPayloadPkg/UefiPayloadPkgIa32.dsc
UefiPayloadPkg/UefiPayloadPkgIa32X64.dsc

I'm asking that you please (a) include a patch for ArmVirtPkg, (b)
update the OvmfPkg patch to cover "OvmfXen.dsc" too.

Not sure about the UefiPayloadPkg platforms; please ask their maintainers.

(I've CC'd the OvmfXen and UefiPayloadPkg maintainers/reviewers.)

Thanks,
Laszlo

Hi, Bret

For UefiPayloadPkg, could you please provide a patch for it ?

Thanks
Maurice

(1) This wiki article is helpful, thanks.

I have one remark: there's a heading saying "VarCheckPolicyLib NULL
Instance":

https://nam06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Ftianocore%2Ftianocore.github.io%2Fwiki%2FVariablePolicy-Protocol---Enhanced-Method-for-Managing-Variables%23varcheckpolicylib-null-instance&amp;data=02%7C01%7Cbret.barkelew%40microsoft.com%7C98d423482cea4e143c4308d7f66b0927%7C72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7C1%7C0%7C637248811886928541&amp;sdata=4qTYEB6%2F3uJnLZ9MjRHODQGaaPq6zZEp7bFlCXEP7gI%3D&amp;reserved=0

I think what's meant is "NULL class", not "NULL instance".

(2) The following platform DSC files in edk2 include the non-SMM
variable driver
("MdeModulePkg/Universal/Variable/RuntimeDxe/VariableRuntimeDxe.inf"),
but they are not modified by this patch series:

ArmVirtPkg/ArmVirtQemu.dsc
ArmVirtPkg/ArmVirtQemuKernel.dsc
ArmVirtPkg/ArmVirtXen.dsc
OvmfPkg/OvmfXen.dsc
UefiPayloadPkg/UefiPayloadPkgIa32.dsc
UefiPayloadPkg/UefiPayloadPkgIa32X64.dsc

I'm asking that you please (a) include a patch for ArmVirtPkg, (b)
update the OvmfPkg patch to cover "OvmfXen.dsc" too.

Not sure about the UefiPayloadPkg platforms; please ask their maintainers.

(I've CC'd the OvmfXen and UefiPayloadPkg maintainers/reviewers.)

Thanks,
Laszlo

“Not sure about the UefiPayloadPkg platforms; please ask their maintainers.”



UefiPayloadPkg maintainers: what say you? ??

(1) This wiki article is helpful, thanks.

I have one remark: there's a heading saying "VarCheckPolicyLib NULL
Instance":

https://nam06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Ftianocore%2Ftianocore.github.io%2Fwiki%2FVariablePolicy-Protocol---Enhanced-Method-for-Managing-Variables%23varcheckpolicylib-null-instance&amp;data=02%7C01%7Cbret.barkelew%40microsoft.com%7C98d423482cea4e143c4308d7f66b0927%7C72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7C1%7C0%7C637248811886928541&amp;sdata=4qTYEB6%2F3uJnLZ9MjRHODQGaaPq6zZEp7bFlCXEP7gI%3D&amp;reserved=0<https://nam06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Ftianocore%2Ftianocore.github.io%2Fwiki%2FVariablePolicy-Protocol---Enhanced-Method-for-Managing-Variables%23varcheckpolicylib-null-instance&data=02%7C01%7Cbret.barkelew%40microsoft.com%7Ca163d58b5f994a077c6708d7f750ebc2%7C72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7C1%7C0%7C637249799249552957&sdata=QmLmlnrWR4FBWrA7Kz%2BlQXph%2FvLpQxIPxi5uZPoES%2Bo%3D&reserved=0>

I think what's meant is "NULL class", not "NULL instance".

(2) The following platform DSC files in edk2 include the non-SMM
variable driver
("MdeModulePkg/Universal/Variable/RuntimeDxe/VariableRuntimeDxe.inf"),
but they are not modified by this patch series:

ArmVirtPkg/ArmVirtQemu.dsc
ArmVirtPkg/ArmVirtQemuKernel.dsc
ArmVirtPkg/ArmVirtXen.dsc
OvmfPkg/OvmfXen.dsc
UefiPayloadPkg/UefiPayloadPkgIa32.dsc
UefiPayloadPkg/UefiPayloadPkgIa32X64.dsc

I'm asking that you please (a) include a patch for ArmVirtPkg, (b)
update the OvmfPkg patch to cover "OvmfXen.dsc" too.

Not sure about the UefiPayloadPkg platforms; please ask their maintainers.

(I've CC'd the OvmfXen and UefiPayloadPkg maintainers/reviewers.)

Thanks,
Laszlo
