Please find a way to achieve this without relying on APRIORI - this is
fragile and defeats the dependency based dispatch model that DXE is
based on.
IIUC the issue you are addressing is that the PCD must be set
correctly before any library that [transitively] depends on it is
used, right?
That simply means that the SMC/HVC functionality must be exposed as a
protocol rather than a library I.e., the 'monitor call' abstraction
library should be backed by a protocol, that could be implemented in
two different ways: using HVCs or using SMCs. The abstraction library
will DEPEX on the protocol, and nothing gets dispatched until one of
the two protocols is installed.
That gets rid of the dynamic PCD as well.
[SAMI] I think if we introduce an ArmVirt version of ArmMonitorLib (i.e. ArmVirtMonitorLib which is similar to ArmVirtPsciResetSystemLib). We can get rid of the APRIORI.
I will try to experiment by introducing an ArmVirtMonitorLib and remove the ARIORI setting in the v2 patch series.
