[edk2-devel] [v2] BaseTools/AutoGen: declare ProcessLibraryConstructorList() for SEC modules

["Laszlo Ersek" <lersek@redhat.com>]

v1 posting:

Bugzilla:

  https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=991

In version 2, the feature is structured differently. Following Mike's
advice, for compatibility, the ProcessLibraryConstructorList()
declaration in AutoGen.h is now gated on the SEC module having
INF_VERSION >= 1.30.

Accordingly,

- I now update the Build specification and the Inf specification (see
  patch sets posted in response to this email),

- edk2 only receives a single patch (for AutoGen), for the time being,

- the same edk2 patch is being ported to edk2-basetools:
  https://github.com/tianocore/edk2-basetools/pull/120.

Next steps: once all of the above is merged, *and* an edk2-basetools
release has been tagged and published, I'll rework the C code patches
for edk2 and edk2-platforms, from the v1 patch sets, as follows:

- all those SEC modules will have to see their INF_VERSIONs bumped to
  1.30, for triggering the new code generation,

- pip-requirements.txt/edk2-basetools will need to reference the new
  edk2-basetools release, for exposing the feature in the first place.

Laszlo
