Re: 回复: [edk2-devel] [PATCH 0/3] MdePkg: fix typos in SmBios.h

["Rebecca Cran" <rebecca@nuviainc.com>]

Liming,


Yes lots of platforms use the structures, but most (all?) don't 
reference the fields themselves.

For example, searching for "FirwareVersion" in edk2-platforms gives just 
one results:


../edk2-platforms/Platform/RaspberryPi/Drivers/PlatformSmbiosDxe/PlatformSmbiosDxe.c:576: 
0,                    // FirwareVersion


Same for 'Processor64BitCapble:


../edk2-platforms/Platform/RaspberryPi/Drivers/PlatformSmbiosDxe/PlatformSmbiosDxe.c:276: 
// Processor64BitCapble            :1;


I did find a problem with this patch: SmbiosView in edk2 needs updated 
at the same time - so I'll send out a v2 shortly.
