Hi Felix,

Try building with VS2015. There’s a known issue with VS2017 builds as documented here https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2408

Thanks

Prince

Subject: Re: [edk2-devel] [edk2-platforms] Building a platform: which edk2 revision to choose?

I’m using the latest version for all the repositories:

ed2 : f1d78c489a399

edk2-platofrms: 41c1d9ba33046637e

edk2-non-osi : c10580aea501ee

FSP : e6177bb3bb57747d

I’m building the project using command “build_bios.py -p WhiskeylakeURvp -t VS2017 -r“

Here is the error I’m getting:

PeiPolicyUpdateLib.lib(PeiSaPolicyUpdatePreMem.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _gEfiMemoryTypeInformationGuid

Hi Felix,

Can you include a log or details of the build error you’re seeing ?

Also what are the FSP , edk2-non-osi, edk2-platform and edk2 commit IDs you are using ?

Thanks

Prince

Subject: [edk2-devel] [edk2-platforms] Building a platform: which edk2 revision to choose?

I’m trying to build one of the board packages from the edk2-platform repository.

(I’m building WhiskeylakeOpenBoardPkg, but I suspect the problem exists for most of the board packages).

The build process fails (I’m using build instructions from https://github.com/tianocore/edk2-platforms/tree/master/Platform/Intel).

I suspect this is happening because tip of the board package is not compatible with tip of the edk2 repo.

Is there a defined way for me to figure out the latest working revisions of the edk2 repo (or the other 2 repos that are part of the project) that I should use?

Thanks

Felix
