[PATCH v1 1/1] MdePkg: Correct EFI_BLOCK_IO_PROTOCOL_REVISION3 value

[Michael Kubacki]

From: Michael Kubacki <michael.kubacki@microsoft.com>

REF:https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2961

The value of EFI_BLOCK_IO_PROTOCOL_REVISION3 is currently
0x00020031. However, the value assigned in the UEFI Specification
2.8B is ((2<<16) | (31)) which is 0x0002001F.

Re: [edk2-devel] [PATCH v1 1/1] MdePkg: Correct EFI_BLOCK_IO_PROTOCOL_REVISION3 value

[Ni, Ray]

Mike,
Have you evaluated the impact to the already-released module that relies on the macro value?

Basically, you changed to a smaller value that may cause a revision3 check fail:
a released module expects the revision is bigger than 0x31, but the value is 0x1f.

Thanks,
Ray

Re: [edk2-devel] [PATCH v1 1/1] MdePkg: Correct EFI_BLOCK_IO_PROTOCOL_REVISION3 value

[Michael Kubacki]

Hi Ray,

Rev3 adds the UINT32 field OptimalTransferLengthGranularity field to 
EFI_BLOCK_IO_MEDIA. A preexisting binary Block I/O producer that uses 
this field will set their revision to the higher value and the only 
check I see in edk2 (PartitionDxe) on the revision to access this field 
checks for >= EFI_BLOCK_IO_PROTOCOL_REVISION3.

If a binary Block I/O producer is built with the new value that is 
consumed by a module built with the older value it might ignore the 
OptimalTransferLengthGranularity field. I do not see where this is the 
case in edk2 other than PartitionDxe which sets the 
OptimalTransferLengthGranularity field to zero for Rev3.

You have contributed to this code in the past so feel free to provide 
any further insight if needed.

That said, this change was made to fix a bug in the edk2 implementation 
to remove a conflict with the UEFI Spec, the two should be in agreement.

I suggest the change be added to the next stable tag release notes so 
authors of such modules are made aware they should release an update 
with the new revision value.

Thanks,
Michael

As far as I know, EFI disk utility consumes this new field for performance. The utility is in Intel website for external downloads.

Re: [edk2-devel] [PATCH v1 1/1] MdePkg: Correct EFI_BLOCK_IO_PROTOCOL_REVISION3 value

[Michael Kubacki]

What do you propose as an alternative?

Can a new version of the tool be released with the correct value?

Thanks,
Michael

Re: [edk2-devel] [PATCH v1 1/1] MdePkg: Correct EFI_BLOCK_IO_PROTOCOL_REVISION3 value

[Ni, Ray]

Disk Utility code that consumes the REVISION3 macro:
    if (BlkIo->Revision >= EFI_BLOCK_IO_PROTOCOL_REVISION3 &&
        BlkIo->Media->OptimalTransferLengthGranularity != 0
       ) {
        //
        // Compute the least common multiple of OptimalTransferLengthGranularity and LogicalBlocksPerPhysicalBlock
        //
        *OptimalTransferBlocks = Lcm (
            BlkIo->Media->OptimalTransferLengthGranularity,
            *OptimalTransferBlocks
            );
    }

Even we could release a new version of tool with the correct value, there is no way to inform the
old tool users to do the upgrade.

What caused the issue to be found?
Would keeping the implementation unchanged but correcting the spec content be the easier way?

Thanks,
Ray

Re: [edk2-devel] [PATCH v1 1/1] MdePkg: Correct EFI_BLOCK_IO_PROTOCOL_REVISION3 value

[Michael Kubacki]

I found the issue while manually reviewing some protocol structures 
against the UEFI spec.

I'm going to leave that question to the MdePkg and UEFI Specification 
maintainers as changing the specification may have an impact on other 
implementations that needs to be considered. My only preference on the 
topic is that the edk2 implementation and UEFI Specification do not 
conflict. Since the patch to match the value against the spec has been 
submitted, I'm happy to make any potential modifications based on the 
decision.

Thanks,
Michael

回复: [edk2-devel] [PATCH v1 1/1] MdePkg: Correct EFI_BLOCK_IO_PROTOCOL_REVISION3 value

[gaoliming]

Michael and Ray:
  So far, I don't see the big impact with this change. I search Edk2/Edk2Platform code base. I only find MdeModulePkg ScsiDiskDxe installs BlkIo with revision 3, and PartitionDxe checks BlkIo revision. They are in the same package, and are used together. So, there is no impact for them. Now, the known impact is Disk Utility. The old binary Disk Utility may not work with the bios image built from the latest edk2 on ScsiDisk. I would suggest to clarify this impact in the release note of the stable tag 202011. If more impact is reported later, we can consider the solution again. 

Thanks

Re: [edk2-devel] [PATCH v1 1/1] MdePkg: Correct EFI_BLOCK_IO_PROTOCOL_REVISION3 value

[Michael D Kinney]

Liming,

I agree with this approach.  Changing the UEFI spec does not seem like a good option because there
can be other implementations of the UEFI Spec or portions of it.  Fixing the EDK II implementation
and working with the community and all downstream consumers should be the focus to make sure 
everyone is informed of this change and its potential impact.

Mike
