Subject: [PATCH 1/2] CpuExceptionHandlerLib: Add comments to make code more readable
Date: Fri, 31 Aug 2018 16:36:19 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180831083620.303688-2-ruiyu.ni@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180831083620.303688-1-ruiyu.ni@intel.com>
Today's implementation of handling HOOK_BEFORE and HOOK_AFTER is
a bit complex. More comments is better.
