[edk2-devel] SMBIOS BIOS ROM Size

["Leif Lindholm" <quic_llindhol@quicinc.com>]

Hi Rebecca,

While reviewing https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/pull/5702, I found 
myself wondering "shouldn't this (doesn't apply to UEFI-based systems) 
be the case for the size field also?".

But the SMBIOS spec is quite clear that the size field refers to the 
size of the physical device the BIOS is stored on.

Currently, this field is hardwired to PcdFdSize in the smbios helper 
library. But that would only be accurate for platforms that use the edk2 
build system to generate the final flashable image to a fixed size.

This isn't really true for SbsaQemu, and I don't think it is for Mt. 
Jade. And those are the only two upstream platforms using this 
SmbiosMiscDxe.

Do we need to solve this by adding another function for OemMiscLib?

/
     Leif
