Hi All
I have an INF file included in top level dsc and fdf files.
When I compile them, I see output files .pe32/.depex/.ui (under
Output/FV/FFs/)
corresponding to one of the source files (namely AcpiPlatform.c).
For the other source file, which is an asl file (namely SSDT/Ssdt_Sdio.asl);
corresponding aml file is generated, but "GenSec" is not running for that
file.
Expectation is that for the generated aml file, GenSec should generate a
raw section (under Output/FV/FFs/) ,
so that I could use "GetSectionFromFv" API and get the table.
Anything needed to be specified in INF file to generate EFI_SECTION_RAW
section
or Am I missing something here?
Below is the INF file:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Defines]
INF_VERSION = 0x00010005
BASE_NAME = AcpiPlatfromDxe
FILE_GUID = 875bd6b6-606f-11eb-bc63-1fc511f35cd9
MODULE_TYPE = DXE_DRIVER
VERSION_STRING = 1.0
ENTRY_POINT = AcpiPlatformEntryPoint
[Sources]
AcpiPlatform.c
SSDT/Ssdt_Sdio.asl
[Packages]
ArmPkg/ArmPkg.dec
MdePkg/MdePkg.dec
MdeModulePkg/MdeModulePkg.dec
[LibraryClasses]
UefiLib
PcdLib
DebugLib
DxeServicesLib
MemoryAllocationLib
UefiBootServicesTableLib
UefiDriverEntryPoint
[Protocols]
gEfiAcpiTableProtocolGuid ## ALWAYS_CONSUMED
[Depex]
gEfiAcpiTableProtocolGuid
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Regards,
Abhishek

Do you have something like this in your FDF file:
INF RuleOverride=ACPITABLE OvmfPkg/AcpiTables/AcpiTables.inf
[Rule.Common.USER_DEFINED.ACPITABLE]
FILE FREEFORM = $(NAMED_GUID) {
RAW ACPI |.acpi
RAW ASL |.aml
}
(This is not an exact answer, just a guess.)

Hi Laszlo
Thanks for the hint. After adding below (based on inf file posted here),
I am able to see EFI_SECTION_RAW sections getting generated:
[Rule.Common.DXE_DRIVER.ACPITABLE]
FILE FREEFORM = $(NAMED_GUID) {
RAW ASL |.aml
}
Regards,
Abhishek
