[edk2-devel] [PATCH 0/2] Remove string IO instruction in BaseIoLibIntrinsic.inf
Posted by duntan 5 months, 3 weeks ago 
Simplify IoRead/WriteFifo implement in BaseIoLibIntrinsic by repeatedly calling
IoRead/Write in C code. This can avoid calling assembly code to use string I/O instructions.
With this change, Ia32/IoFifo.nasm and X64/IoFifo.nasm can be removed. Also
source files for IA32 and X64 are the same.

This approach looks good to me.

The IA32 and X64 OVMF platforms use "BaseIoLibIntrinsicSev.inf", and
that library instance is left alone.

The RISC-V OVMF platform uses "BaseIoLibIntrinsic.inf", but RISC-V
already doesn't (can't) use the IA32/X64 NASM files.

So, surprisingly, the "IoFifo.nasm" files are actually unused,
pre-patch; IA32 and X64 OVMF only uses the "IoFifoSev.nasm" files.

Thanks!

Hi Mike and Liming,

Could you help to review this patch set? It's to remove string IO instruction in BaseIoLibIntrinsic and simplify BaseIoLibIntrinsic.

Thanks,
Dun
