Bret,

I wonder if this is an order of operations issue.

Those 2 commits convert Brotli support to submodules.  One for the FW decompress lib, and the other for the compression tool.  The patch adds both submodule links to CISettings.py and we know that works for FW components.  However, this may be the first time it is used for a C tool in BaseTools.

In order for BaseTool/EDK2ToolsBuild.py to complete, all the sources need to be present.  So does CISettings.py need to be processed before running BaseTool/EDK2ToolsBuild.py?

Mike

Confirmed that it seems related to these two commits:
https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/commit/58802e02c41bd715a5d3586f4bf2a4b1c46e9274
https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/commit/06033f5abad3815e8d80de22c97ba38a05017262

If I roll back to the commit prior, the Tools build works. Anyone involved in BaseTools have an idea? @Feng, Bob C<mailto:bob.c.feng@intel.com> or @Liming Gao<mailto:liming.gao@intel.com>?

Yeah, I was noticing some problems with BrotliCompress the other day. Seems like a relatively recent change. I know the 202002 stable tag was fine.

I’ll try to dig into this a bit. Thanks for bring it to our attention!

Have you installed the up-to-date Python requirements? “pip install –upgrade -r pip-requirements.txt”?

That’s the first thing I would check. Otherwise, happy to look at the problem with you.
