Hello Liming and Bob,
I couldn't find the list of maintainers for the specification files, but it seems Liming is a maintainer. If a maintainer is missing, please feel free to cc him,
Regards,
Pierre

Subject: [PATCH v1 1/1] INF Spec: Add file dependency to [Sources] syntax
From: Pierre Gondois <Pierre.Gondois at arm.com>
BZ: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2464
When building an edk2 module, a C file was including a .hex file generated by the compilation of an ASL file.
To describe this dependency between an ASL file and a C file, the edk2 patch,
- named "BaseTools: Build ASL files before C files",
- discussed at: https://edk2.groups.io/g/devel/message/52550
has been created.
This patch allows to establish build dependencies in the [Sources] section, between files that are not of the same language.
E.g.:
[Sources]
FileName1.X
FileName2.Y : FileName1.X
FileName3.Z : FileName1.X FileName2.Y
Here:
* FileName1.X will be built prior to FileName2.Y.
* FileName1.X and FileName2.Y will be built prior to
FileName3.Z.
This patch updates the Inf specification accordingly.
