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

REF:https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3218

Adds an INF for StandaloneMmCpuFeaturesLib, which supports building
the SmmCpuFeaturesLib code for Standalone MM. Minimal code changes
are made to allow reuse of existing code for Standalone MM.

The original INF file names are left intact (continue to use SMM
terminology) to retain backward compatibility with platforms that
use those INFs. Similarly, the C file names are unchanged to be
consistent with the INF file names.

I've found this patch surprisingly difficult to review.

The reason for that is two-fold, as much as I can determine.

(1) This patch should be split in two parts, namely:

(1a) interface extraction

(1b) adding the new library instance


(2) *However*, the real problem is that the pre-patch status is a mess
already. Consider the "SmmCpuFeaturesLibStm.inf" instance:

- this instance has a constructor function called
SmmCpuFeaturesLibStmConstructor()

- the "SmmStm.c" file declares the *other* instance's constructor
function, and does so without a header file

- the STM instance's constructor calls the other instance's constructor
like a normal function.


I would say that the original commit that introduced the STM instance
*like this* created technical debt.

Regardless of whether someone agrees with me on that or not, *after*
your patch, we'll have a totally awkward situation where *some*
polymorphism is implemented correctly -- namely, the mechanism
introduced by your patch, with two constructors calling a common helper
function --, while at the *same time*, some *other* polymorphism is
implemented incorrectly, or at least differently -- with a constructor
calling another instance's constructor.

It gets worse. There is *already* (i.e., pre-patch) a multi-instance
internal function, namely FinishSmmCpuFeaturesInitializeProcessor(). But
that function is not declared in any header file; the declaration is
embedded in "SmmCpuFeaturesLib.c"

All this is completely mind-boggling, and the main reason why this patch
is so difficult to review. For me anyway.

So here's what I suggest / request. In total, we're going to need *four*
patches.


(3) In the first patch, please start untangling the current (pre-patch)
mess. Namely:

(3a) Introduce the new header file ("CpuFeaturesLib.h"), but with *only*
the FinishSmmCpuFeaturesInitializeProcessor() declaration.

(3b) Remove the (embedded) declaration from its current spot.

(3c) Consume the new header file in *three* C files that define, or
call, FinishSmmCpuFeaturesInitializeProcessor().

(3d) Extend the INF files with the new header file.


(4) In the second patch, continue untangling the current mess:

(4a) declare the CpuFeaturesLibInitialization() function in the header
file added in (3a)

(4b) Rename the SmmCpuFeaturesLibConstructor() function in
"SmmCpuFeaturesLib.c" to CpuFeaturesLibInitialization()

(4c) In "SmmStm.c", remove the declaration of SmmCpuFeaturesLibConstructor()

(4d) In "SmmStm.c", call CpuFeaturesLibInitialization() rather than
SmmCpuFeaturesLibConstructor()

(4e) Re-introduce the SmmCpuFeaturesLibConstructor() function, but to
the file "SmmCpuFeaturesLibNoStm.c". The implementation should be just a
call to CpuFeaturesLibInitialization().

This step establishes the *good* pattern, from your current patch, for
the *existent* status.


(5) In the third patch:

(5a) declare the GetCpuMaxLogicalProcessorNumber() function in
"CpuFeaturesLib.h"

(5b) call GetCpuMaxLogicalProcessorNumber() rather than PcdGet32() in
CpuFeaturesLibInitialization(), in "SmmCpuFeaturesLib.c"

(5c) Introduce the "TraditionalMmCpuFeaturesLib.c" file, containing the
GetCpuMaxLogicalProcessorNumber() implementation only -- calling PcdGet32()

(5d) add the new C file to both INF files

(5e) This patch should not rename any files, should not rename any
functions, and should not change any <PiSmm.h> include directives.


(6) In the fourth patch:

(6a) introduce the files

 StandaloneMmCpuFeaturesLib.c
 StandaloneMmCpuFeaturesLib.inf

like they are in the present patch.

(6b) extend the DSC file with the new library instance

(6c) modify the <PiSmm.h> #include directives wherever necessary, but
*only* in those files where the update is really necessary.

Thanks
Laszlo

Hi Laszlo,

Thank you for the quick and detailed feedback. This is definitely the 
right direction, I suppose someone had to clean it up :).

All of your suggestions are present in v2:
