The DXE & MM standalone variant of AcpiTimerLib defines a global
named mPerformanceCounterFrequency. A global with an identical
name is also present in MdeModulePkg/Bus/Pci/XhciDxe/Xhci.c
Since XhciDxe has a dependency on TimerLib, this can cause link
errors due to the same symbol being defined twice if the platform
DSC chooses to use AcpiTimerLib as the TimerLib implementation for
any given platform.
To resolve this, I have changed made the definition of
mPerformanceCounterFrequency to STATIC. Since this variable is not
used outside of the DxeStandaloneMmAcpiTimerLib.c compilation unit,
there is no reason to have it exported as a global.

Mike, Does today's EDK2 C coding style spec allow using "STATIC" for global variables? Or lower case "static"? Or changing the variable to a name with lib name prefix, e.g.: " mTimerLibPerformanceCounterFrequency"?

Hi Ray, 'static' is allowed and actually preferred for module globals that start with 'm' that are scoped to a single C file. Globals that start with 'g' that need to be access by multiple C files can not be static. Since 'm' globals could be changed to 'g' globals due to maintenance, we want to avoid symbol collisions between 'g' globals. Prefixing all globals with a module name helps prevent symbol collisions. Summary ======== * Use lower case 'static' * Use 'static' for 'm' globals * Do not use 'static' for 'g' globals * Add module/lib specific prefix to 'm' and 'g' global Mike > -----Original Message----- > From: Ni, Ray <ray.ni@intel.com> > Sent: Thursday, November 30, 2023 7:13 PM > To: Desimone, Nathaniel L <nathaniel.l.desimone@intel.com>; > devel@edk2.groups.io > Cc: Kinney, Michael D <michael.d.kinney@intel.com> > Subject: RE: [PATCH v1] PcAtChipsetPkg: Fix AcpiTimerLib incompatibility > with XhciDxe > > Mike, > Does today's EDK2 C coding style spec allow using "STATIC" for global > variables? > Or lower case "static"? > Or changing the variable to a name with lib name prefix, e.g.: " > mTimerLibPerformanceCounterFrequency"? > > > Thanks, > Ray > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Desimone, Nathaniel L <nathaniel.l.desimone@intel.com> > > Sent: Friday, December 1, 2023 9:56 AM > > To: devel@edk2.groups.io > > Cc: Ni, Ray <ray.ni@intel.com>; Kinney, Michael D > > <michael.d.kinney@intel.com> > > Subject: [PATCH v1] PcAtChipsetPkg: Fix AcpiTimerLib incompatibility with > > XhciDxe > > > > The DXE & MM standalone variant of AcpiTimerLib defines a global > > named mPerformanceCounterFrequency.
