Hi Guomin,

Thanks for reaching out. I did encounter a GP fault because of this issue:

If Line 582<https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/blob/4c0f6e349d32cf27a7104ddd3e729d6ebc88ea70/FmpDevicePkg/FmpDxe/Dependency.c#L582> is triggered when the first Fmp->GetImageInfo failed, this specific mFmpImageInfoBuf[Index] will remain to be uninitialized value (0xFAFAFAFAFAF in my case). Later on when it comes to line 632<https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/blob/4c0f6e349d32cf27a7104ddd3e729d6ebc88ea70/FmpDevicePkg/FmpDxe/Dependency.c#L632>, it will pass the null pointer check and try to dereference it, which leads to GP fault. Please let me know if you need further clarification.

Thanks,
Kun

Hi Xuwei, QinKun,

Have you indeed encounter this issue or just think it is potential issue.

I think  below code will always initialize the mFmpImageInfoBuf[] and make sure it is valid.
Line 585 - mFmpImageInfoBuf[Index] = AllocateZeroPool (ImageInfoSize);

If the second GetImageInfo() is runned, I think it will always have correct mfmpImageInfoBuf[] address.

Of course, it is ok to use AllocateZeroPool to ensure zero buffer is allocated.

Thanks
