But on doing same I am facing errors, because these Pcds are included under= [FixedPcd] section in ArmBaseLib.inf and I am using ArmLib. [FixedPcd] gArmTokenSpaceGuid.PcdGicDistributorBase gArmTokenSpaceGuid.PcdGicInterruptInterfaceBase Is there any particular reason behind including these Pcds in ArmBaseLib.in= f, as ArmLib is not using these Pcds anywhere. I removed these Pcds from ArmBaseLib.inf and I didn't face any issue, neith= er in compilation nor in execution. Please tell me the relevance of including these Pcds in ArmBaseLib.inf.
