Hi Guo ,

yes, I know it is merged, and I have some update based on that change.

I get comments from Ray, and he suggests using BaseCpuTimerLib for Universal Payload by default.

The reason is that we only want to enable UPL on latest CPUs and they should all support the BaseCpuTimerLib. (qemu is the exception, and can be special handled by change its Macro)

I was convinced by Ray, so I send patch to modify the default value.

Sorry for changing the same content so soon.

BTW, seems I missed devel@edk2.groups.io when I sent the patch. Include it in the thread.

Thanks

Zhiguang

Subject: [PATCH] UefiPayloadPkg: Use BaseCpuTimerLib for Universal Payload by default

Current, a macro CPU_TIMER_LIB_ENABLE is added to determine which timerlib is used. BaseCpuTimerLib.inf is a better way and only fit for recent CPU.
Meanwhile, Universal Payload are only aimed to work with recent CPU.
Therefore, for Universal Payload, use the BaseCpuTimerLib by default
