Subject: Re: [edk2-devel] [edk2 2/2] MdePkg: add BaseSerialPortLibRiscVSbi
Date: Wed, 1 Mar 2023 17:51:02 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CO1PR11MB49294F61A0B4061138A26A3ED2AD9@CO1PR11MB4929.namprd11.prod.outlook.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <PH8PR11MB685646F80A9042E6E2DD39AB83AD9@PH8PR11MB6856.namprd11.prod.outlook.com>

If a dependency on MdePkg\Include\Library\ BaseRiscVSbiLib.h and SBI services assumed memory is available
and code loaded is loaded into RAM and not XIP, then BASE is ok for this component.

You may want to make sure the library class header file and INF file header for BaseRiscVSbiLib 
describe that environment assumption and the INF for BaseSerialPortLibRiscVSbi also 
describes that environment assumption.
