Hi Ray, For this patch, I checked again and here are my opinions: 1. (Set|Get)MemoryRegionAttribute is difficult to merge together, because the parameters between the tow APIs are not similar. So I suggest they be independent. 2. The EfiAttributeConverse, GetMemoryRegionAttribute, SetMemoryRegionAttributes and ConfigureMemoryManagementUnit will be retained and other APIs will be removed. Because the functions expressed by other APIs can be completed though the retained API. 3. You pointed out MEMORY_REGION_DESCRIPTOR have no one to construct it, do I need add a new API to construct it? Could it be named GetMemoryMapPolicy and accept a parameter with MEMORY_REGION_DESCRIPTOR** ? Hope to hear from you! :) Thanks, Chao On 2023/11/30 10:25, Chao Li wrote: > > Hi Ray, > > Thanks for review, here are some of my thoughts: > > On 2023/11/30 08:59, Ni, Ray wrote: >> Chao, >> Since the lib class is so general, I'd like to understand more details to make sure it can properly fit into any CPU arch. >> >> In X86, cache setting is through MSRs and Page tables, and memory access control (read-only, not-present, non-executable) is through page tables. > Let me understand, 'cache setting' means does it access a certain > address(probably a memory address) via cache?
