Subject: [PATCH] Platform/Intel: Dynamic NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS in build.
Date: Thu, 13 Jun 2019 14:14:39 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190613061439.10144-1-chasel.chiu@intel.com> (raw)
REF: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1913
To improve build performance by default the maximum
processors should be used for building.
To support this, NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS in build.cfg has
new definition:
0 = AUTO. Maximum of processors will be used.
non-zero = limit or force the number of processors.
Test: tried several NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS settings and
the build parameter can be updated accordingly
also builds successfully.
