[PATCH] UefiCpuPkg/MicrocodeMeasurementDxe: Fix exception

[PATCH] UefiCpuPkg/MicrocodeMeasurementDxe: Fix exception

[Darbin Reyes]

REF: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4360

An incorrect format specifier is being used in a DEBUG print,
specifically, a variable of type EFI_STATUS was being printed with
the %a format specifier (pointer to an ASCII string), thus the value of
the Status variable was being treated as the address of a string,
leading to a CPU exception, when encountered this bug manifests itself
as a hang near "Ready to Boot Event", with the last DEBUG print being
"INFO: Got MicrocodePatchHob with microcode patches starting address"
followed by a CPU Exception dump.

Re: [edk2-devel] [PATCH] UefiCpuPkg/MicrocodeMeasurementDxe: Fix exception

[Ni, Ray]

Great fix.
I am wondering why this bug was not found earlier.
If Status is 0 (Success), #PF exception would occur when NULL pointer protection is turned on.
If Status is 0x80000000_x (Error), #GP exception would occur because an address with only the BIT63 set is an invalid address.

Thanks,
Ray

Re: [edk2-devel] [PATCH] UefiCpuPkg/MicrocodeMeasurementDxe: Fix exception

[Michael D Kinney]

Hi Ray,

It is in an error path.  My guess is that this error path has not been used
since this bug was introduced.

Can you please merge this fix?

Mike

Requesting an estimated ETA on integration of this 1 character patch.

I understand the patch queue is huge, just looking to provide a realistic expectation to those who are blocked by this and waiting for me to provide an update.
