[PATCH] edk2: get version + date from git submodule
Posted by Gerd Hoffmann 1 month ago 
Turned out hard-coding version and date in the Makefile wasn't a bright
idea.  Updating it on edk2 updates is easily forgotten.  Fetch the info
from git instead.

Hi -- I've just noticed that we never made this change to
automate the date/version for EDK2 ROMs, but we also never
updated the version by hand. So at the moment we ship an
EDK2 blob that wrongly claims to be an older version.
See this bug report by a user:

https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/2233

Is it possible to fix this for 9.0?

thanks

I've posted v2 (series) a while back, no feedback so far.

https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/20240327102448.61877-1-kraxel@redhat.com/

If there are no objections I can do a PR for these three patches plus an
edk2 binary rebuild (which shouldn't change anything but the version
string).

take care,
  Gerd

I guess that's safe enough, though the very-conservative
choice would be to take just the EDK2 rebuild for 9.0.

Would you be able to get a pullreq in for this before rc3?
(I can delay rc3 by a day or so if necessary; I'd rather
not have to do an rc4 if we can avoid it...)

I don't think there's any guarantee that the user has 'git'
installed. scripts/qemu-version avoids using "git describe"
unless it's building in a git tree.

You can avoid the "| head -1" by using
  git log -1 --pretty='format:%cd' --date='format:%m/%d/%Y'
I think.

Also, does EDK2 really want month/day/year? Typically silly
choice if so :-)

Hmm.  Have to figure something else then I guess.

Works.  Thanks.

Yes.

It's the smbios spec being silly btw, this lands more or less
directly in /sys/class/dmi/id/bios_date.  edk2 itself doesn't
care.
