I noticed that MdeModulePkg fails to build on my Ubuntu 22.04 system
(and previously on the Ubuntu 20.04 installation). Is this a known bug?
It shouldn't be relevant, but I'm using gcc version 11.2.0 (Ubuntu
11.2.0-17ubuntu1). But perhaps more relevant, I'm using Python 3.10.4.
I'm trying to build commit e2ac68a23b4954d5c0399913a1df3dd9fd90315d.

This looks like a BaseTools regression to me - afaik, these packages
all used to build for AARCH64 in the past.
The following LockBoxLib resolutions appear in MdeModulePkg.dsc (with
line numbers)
115-[LibraryClasses.common.PEIM]
119: LockBoxLib|MdeModulePkg/Library/SmmLockBoxLib/SmmLockBoxPeiLib.inf
178-[LibraryClasses.ARM, LibraryClasses.AARCH64]
181: LockBoxLib|MdeModulePkg/Library/LockBoxNullLib/LockBoxNullLib.inf
No other [LlibraryClasses] references to SmmLockBoxPeiLib.inf exist in
that file, and the [Components] reference does not apply to AARCH64.
This means the DSC parser ends up using the earlier definition, which
I think is a bug, or at least a change in behavior. Note that doing
this silently could potentially break many platforms in subtle ways so
I think this should be root caused and preferably fixed before
creating the stable tag.

Seems to be deliberate:
commit 039bdb4d3e96f9c9264abf135b8a0eef2e2b4860
Author: Chen, Christine <Yuwei.Chen@intel.com>
Date: Thu Jun 30 17:04:05 2022 +0800
BaseTools: Fix DSC LibraryClass precedence rule
but I don't think the impact on other platforms and drivers has been
taken into account here. Also, the document [0] seems ambiguous to me:
"""
The first globally defined library instance, defined in a DSC file,
that satisfies a module's requirement for a Library Class, unless
specifically overridden by the module in the [Components] section,
will be used.
"""
This says that the first occurrence of a library instance definition
that satisfies a INF dependency will be selected. Then, there is
"""
The Library Instances will be selected using the following rules to
satisfy a library class for each module listed in the [Components]
section (in order of highest precedence):
"""
which says that not the *first* occurrence, but the occurrence *with
the highest precedence* will be selected.
Then, the precedence list has these items:
"""
2. [LibraryClasses.$(Arch).$(MODULE_TYPE),
LibraryClasses.$(Arch).$(MODULE_TYPE)]
3. [LibraryClasses.$(Arch).$(MODULE_TYPE)]
"""
which seem to suggest that a definition that applies to multiple
arch/module_type combinations automatically takes precedence over one
that targets a single arch/module_type combination, which makes no
sense at all.
So I strongly suggest we revert the patch, fix the document so it is
clear and ambiguous, and preferably, align it with how it used to
work.

Yuwei:
The commit 039bdb4d3e96f9c9264abf135b8a0eef2e2b4860 (BaseTools: Fix DSC LibraryClass precedence rule) introduces this issue. I agree with Ard suggestion to revert this change first for this stable tag 202208. Then, we can discuss this change in the detail.
Thanks

Hi Liming,
Reverting patch may not a good idea, some platforms have done the implementation based on the DSC spec, if revert, those platforms build will break.
This commit 039bdb4d3e96f9c9264abf135b8a0eef2e2b4860 make the Basetools behavior be consistent with DSC spec so I don't think it's a regression bug.
Thanks,
Bob

Yuwei:
The commit 039bdb4d3e96f9c9264abf135b8a0eef2e2b4860 (BaseTools: Fix DSC LibraryClass precedence rule) introduces this issue. I agree with Ard suggestion to revert this change first for this stable tag 202208. Then, we can discuss this change in the detail.
Thanks

Bob:
The commit 039bdb4d3e96f9c9264abf135b8a0eef2e2b4860 was merged into Edk2 on Last month (2022 July 17th). This is very new change. It brings the behavior change. But, it doesn't highlight its impact to collect feedback.
I suggest to revert it, because I think we need more time to discuss this behavior change. Even if we decide to make this change, we also need to give other people enough time to update DSC file.

Platforms implemented against the DSC spec would have never worked if
they relied on behavior that BaseTools currently does not implement.

Platforms built against the current behavior that used to work might
break after this change. MdeModulePkg.dsc for ARM/AARCH64 no longer
builds due to this change.
Also, as I pointed out, the DSC spec is far from ambiguous. This means
that platforms implemented against the spec will rely on one of
several possible interpretations of that ambiguous set of rules.
So let's revert this change now. Let's fix the DSC spec next, And only
then, let's fix the code (assuming it still needs to be fixed)

Ugh I did it again ...
"far from *un*ambiguous"
Will use less difficult words from now on - I obviously cannot be
trusted with them.

Hi Liming,
This commit 039bdb4d3e96f9c9264abf135b8a0eef2e2b4860 was to fix the bug that the basetools implementation dose not follow the dsc spec and pass the edk2 CI.
The patch was send on June 30, reviewed on July 11 and pushed on July 17. I think there was enough time to give feedback to this change.
Why not consider to fix the DSC file?
Thanks,
Bob

* 回复: [edk2-devel][edk2-stable202208] MdeModulePkg build fails for AARCH64 on Ubuntu 22.04

Bob:
I mean this change brings the behavior change, but this patch doesn't highlight its impact and give the suggestion to modify the impacted DSC file. Otherwise, this impact can be raised and discussed early. Now, we are near to create edk2-stable202208. There is no enough time to discuss this change. So, I suggest to revert this change for stable tag 202208.
Andrew, Lefi and Mike:
The commit 039bdb4d3e96f9c9264abf135b8a0eef2e2b4860 (BaseTools: Fix DSC LibraryClass precedence rule) introduces this issue. This commit was merged into Edk2 on Last month (2022 July 17th). But, its impact was reported on last week. Because we are near for the stable tag edk2-stable202208, we need to make the decision to keep this change or revert this change for this stable tag. Can you give your comments on this change?
Thanks

Hi Bob,
You are suggesting to knowingly break builds between one stable tag and
another on a technicality, for one of the most common (and up to date)
build operating systems.
The purpose of the stable tag is to avoid unplanned breakages. Catching
this sort of situation is literally what it is for.

Hi Bob,
There was feedback in the Bugzilla on July 5 asking if this is
a DSC spec issue or a BaseTools implementation issue. There was
no response to that question.
Why was a spec change not considered for this case to match the
BaseTools behavior?
Why were no additional details added to the BZ?
I agree with Leif. If this change introduced regressions, we should
consider a revert and evaluate again after the release.
Thanks,

I didn't check with Bob about that patch.
I guess that was to fix a bug I found in BaseTools which didn't take care of the library override properly.
Or the rule of the library override was in a chaos that didn't seem to be an understood rule.
If some platforms happen to rely on this rule, I agree this is a risk.
So, I think a better solution is to evaluate the library instance mapping before and after the patch.
Thanks,
Ray

I am OK to revert this patch for this stable tag.
Since this patch break the MdeModulePkg build, also suggest to add this case in edk2 CI.

Hi All,
I'm the submitter.
==================Here's the DSC precedence rule from DSC Spec===================
The Library Instances will be selected using the following rules to satisfy a library class for
each module listed in the [Components] section (in order of highest precedence):
1. <LibraryClasses> associated with the INF file in the [Components] section
2. [LibraryClasses.$(Arch).$(MODULE_TYPE), LibraryClasses.$(Arch).$(MODULE_TYPE)]
3. [LibraryClasses.$(Arch).$(MODULE_TYPE)]
4. [LibraryClasses.common.$(MODULE_TYPE)]
5. [LibraryClasses.$(Arch)]
6. [LibraryClasses.common] or [LibraryClasses]
===========================================================================
Background:
Our system takes DXE and later stages as 64-bit by default, using [LibraryClasses.X64] or appending a more detailed section "MODULE_TYPE"(e.g. [LibraryClasses.X64.DXE_CORE], [LibraryClasses.X64.DXE_SMM_DRIVER]). For SEC or PEI, use [LibraryClasses.IA32] or [LibraryClasses.IA32.SEC], [LibraryClasses.IA32.PEIM], etc. It works fine for traditional.
With the arrival of pure X64, there will be some linking issues in this way. Because which library to link against cannot be determined simply using ARCH.
During the development of X64 PEI, we found that the actual behavior of BaseTools for DSC precedence:
[LibraryClasses.common.PEIM] < [LibraryClasses.X64]
[LibraryClasses.IA32.PEIM] > [LibraryClasses.X64]
[LibraryClasses.X64.PEIM] > [LibraryClasses.X64]
We can see that this does not match the order of 4 and 5 in the spec.
So when we tried to use "[LibraryClasses.common.MODULE_TYPE]" such the common ways to support both X64 and IA32 SEC & PEI and avoid duplication, before the fixed patch, modules in the PEI stage will linking DXE and later stage's libraries first(under [LibraryClasses.X64]), it will cause many puzzling linking issues. After the fixed patch downstream, we setup the X64 PEI build target, and works well for several days(both for IA32 and X64 SEC & PEI build).
For Ard Biesheuvel's question:
I think it may be the LockBoxLib under [LibraryClasses.ARM, LibraryClasses.AARCH64] doesn't provide the MODULE_TYPE section, it can work before this patch as I said above. But now it should be replaced with [LibraryClasses.ARM.MODULE_TYPE, LibraryClasses.AARCH64.MODULE_TYPE] to get higher priority than LockBoxLib under [LibraryClasses.comon.MODULE_TYPE].
Conclusion:
From my point of view, I think the DSC precedence rule defined by spec is reasonable and make sense. MinPlatform gives us a good example, using the method of [LibraryClasses.common.MODULE_TYPE]. Do not assume the current arch, use "common" instead, then always append "MODULE_TYPE" section. It's clear, compatible and unambiguous. So we strongly support the idea of the DSC spec: Unless specified under [Components], then more detailed sections, higher priority. I think it will benefit future development.
Short term solution:
we can agree to temporarily revert this patch for stable tag if we can't fix the MdeModulePkg build issues or other potential problems immediately. For us, we will downstream overwrite it to keep this change to support the X64 build target.
Long term solution:
We suggest that we can discuss the rationale of this rule and evaluate if this patch should be reintroduced after the stable tag.
Thanks,
Huang, Long

Hello Huang, Long,
Thanks for providing this background - it is very helpful. Some of
this should have been recorded in the bugzilla entry or the patch
commit log, though, as now, nobody understood the problem or why the
fix was necessary to begin with.

This is incomplete. Before that, the DSC spec says
"""
The first globally defined library instance, defined in a DSC file,
that satisfies a module's requirement for a Library Class, unless
specifically overridden by the module in the [Components] section,
will be used.
"""
Should we simply drop that part from the DSC spec?
Also, do you happen to have any idea for the rationale of having 2.
supersede 3. explicltly?

OK. The problem, however, is that many platform definitions may exist
that actually rely on this behavior. And the symptom could be
something that only manifests itself at runtime.
> For Ard Biesheuvel's question:
> I think it may be the LockBoxLib under [LibraryClasses.ARM, LibraryClasses.AARCH64] doesn't provide the MODULE_TYPE section, it can work before this patch as I said above. But now it should be replaced with [LibraryClasses.ARM.MODULE_TYPE, LibraryClasses.AARCH64.MODULE_TYPE] to get higher priority than LockBoxLib under [LibraryClasses.comon.MODULE_TYPE].
>
Thanks for clarifying that. But fixing the MdeModulePkg build is not
the priority here. The MdeModulePkg breakage is the canary in the
coalmine here, and tells us that making changes to the build tools
like this is dangerous, and may affect many users of this code base.
> Conclusion:
> From my point of view, I think the DSC precedence rule defined by spec is reasonable and make sense. MinPlatform gives us a good example, using the method of [LibraryClasses.common.MODULE_TYPE]. Do not assume the current arch, use "common" instead, then always append "MODULE_TYPE" section. It's clear, compatible and unambiguous. So we strongly support the idea of the DSC spec: Unless specified under [Components], then more detailed sections, higher priority. I think it will benefit future development.

Doesn't this mean that you should not be using [LibraryClasses.X64] to
begin with? Or am I misunderstanding the point you are making? Because
in that case, the problem would not exist either.

Fixing MdeModulePkg is easy. Fixing all the DSCs out in the world that
may silently break because of this change is much harder.
> Long term solution:

I agree. But we should clarify the DSC spec first, and at least
consider aligning the spec with the existing code (which has been in
wide use for many years) instead of the other way around.
Thanks,
Ard.
