[PATCH] MdeModulePkg: Upon BootOption failure, Destroy RamDisk memory before RSC.

[PATCH] MdeModulePkg: Upon BootOption failure, Destroy RamDisk memory before RSC.

[KrishnadasX Veliyathuparambil Prakashan]

REF:https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2818

For better memory management, re-ordered the DestroyRamDisk and
ReportStatusCode calls inside the EfiBootManagerBoot() function.

This will help to clean the unused memory before reporting the
failure status, so that OEMs can use RSC Listener to launch
custom boot option or application for recovering the failed
hard drive.

This change will help to ensure that the allocated pool of memory
for the failed boot option is freed before executing OEM's RSC
listener callback to handle every boot option failure.

Re: [edk2-devel] [PATCH] MdeModulePkg: Upon BootOption failure, Destroy RamDisk memory before RSC.

[Wang, Sunny (HPS SW)]

Looks good to me. Not sure if there was a reason to call BmDestroyRamDisk before ReportStatusCode. 
By the way, it is an interesting case that there is a custom boot option or application that needs the memory that was occupied by the RAM disk. It looks to me like the custom boot option or application would like to create the other RAM disk with allocating large memory for recovering the failed boot option.

Re: [edk2-devel] [PATCH] MdeModulePkg: Upon BootOption failure, Destroy RamDisk memory before RSC.

[Liming Gao]

Signed-off-by line is too long and exceeds 80 characters requirement. But, it is valid. 

So, I suggest to enhance PatchCheck.py and skip the check for the lines with Signed-off-by, Ack-by:, Reviewed-by:, and Tested-By:. 

Thanks

Re: [edk2-devel] [PATCH] MdeModulePkg: Upon BootOption failure, Destroy RamDisk memory before RSC.

[Veliyathuparambil Prakashan, KrishnadasX]

Thank you very much Liming  and Zhichao for your time to discuss this case.

Hello Liming, 

As discussed, please help to raise the BZ to enhance PatchCheck.py and kindly help to submit our Edk2 patch to Edk2 Repo.
[EDK2 Change BZ: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2818]

Also, please give us an update on next week regarding the ETA , as per our discussion.

Thanks,

[PATCH] MdeModulePkg: Upon BootOption failure, Destroy RamDisk memory before RSC

[KrishnadasX Veliyathuparambil Prakashan]

REF:https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2818

For better memory management, re-ordered the DestroyRamDisk and
ReportStatusCode calls inside the EfiBootManagerBoot() function.

This will help to clean the unused memory before reporting the
failure status, so that OEMs can use RSC Listener to launch
custom boot option or application for recovering the failed
hard drive.

This change will help to ensure that the allocated pool of memory
for the failed boot option is freed before executing OEM's RSC
listener callback to handle every boot option failure.
