[edk2-devel] [PATCH] EmulatorPkg/Win: support running multiple WinHost.exe
Posted by Ni, Ray 4 years, 10 months ago 
When running 2nd instance of WinHost.exe, below error is printed:
ERROR : Can not open Firmware Device File ../FV/FV_RECOVERY.fd...

The root cause is "RECOVERY.FD" is exclusively opened by the first
instance of WinHost.exe.

The patch changes to open "RECOVERY.FD" in shared way so that
2nd+ instance of WinHost.exe can still run successfully.

Hi
It is good to support 2nd instance.

But the risk is that 2 instances may access to the same variable region.

It might cause unpredictable behavior in the variable driver later.

Do we have investigate that impact?

Thank you
Yao Jiewen

I agree this patch only removes the limitation that blocks running 2nd instance of WinHost.exe.
I will investigate the impact on variable storage part.
