[edk2-devel] EDK2 WilsonCityRVP BIOS Build Error

Tue May 17 10:33:12 UTC 2022

Issac, 

Update: 

After commenting the function FspPcdListLibNull in file WhitleyFspBinPkg/Library/FspPcdListLibNull/FspPcdListLibNull.c, the error got resolved.

Seems its defined and unused, hence the warning as error.

Regards,

Akber

Hello Issac,

For WilsonCityRvp and JunctionCity, the command python build_bios.py -p WilsonCityRvp -t GCC5 -d is getting failed with following error.

Any help would be appreciated.

Akber

Hello Issac,

Thank you for your time and help.

Yes, the patch is working fine for both JunctionCity and WilsonCityRvp.

I will boot it on WIlsonCityRvp. If got any issues, will let you.

Regards,

Akber

Akber,

I just sent a patch with some GCC build fixes.  https://edk2.groups.io/g/devel/message/89450

There are more fixes needed.  In the meantime, this workaround procedure worked for me:

export WORKSPACE=~/src

export EDK_TOOLS_PATH=~/src/edk2/BaseTools

cd ~/src/edk2

make -C BaseTools

. edksetup.sh BaseTools

cd ../edk2-platforms/Platform/Intel/

python build_bios.py -p WilsonCityRvp -t GCC5 -d

The problem as I currently understand it is that the pre_build_ex board specific extension is being run before the edk2 build environment is set up by the build_bios.py script.  The workaround effectively creates the environment needed
 to perform the pre-build steps.

I will confer with Nate on the correct fix for this.  It seems like we might need another extension point after ed2 build environment and before main build, but maybe there is a more elegant solution.

Also note that there has been an initial report of a binary compatibility issue between the FSP binary and the gcc built bootloader.  At this time it is not expected to boot properly.  The issue reported was only with enabling a second
 SATA drive.  But if there is a binary compatibility issue in the API, any number of things might be incorrect functionally with GCC built edk2 WhitleyOpenBoardPkg bootloader.

Regards,
 Isaac

Hello Nate,

Yes. The error is same, relating to CPUTARGET.

I have followed the steps exactly you shared.

Regards,

Akber

Hi Akber,

Is the error in the build log the same as before? The build script should resolve the issue of CPUTARGET
 being undefined.

Thanks,

Nate

Hello Nate,

Thank you for your response.

Build is still getting failed after trying the steps you have mentioned.

Hi Akber,

It looks like you are trying to build without using the MinPlatform build
 script. Please try building using the following:

cd edk2

source edksetup.sh

cd ../edk2-platforms/Platform/Intel

python ./build_bios.py -p WilsonCityRvp

Thanks,

Nate

Team,

We are getting build errors while trying to build BIOS for Intel WilsonCityRVP
 under WhitleyOpenBoardPkg platform.

Toolchains used:

GCC: 5 and 7 (getting same error for both GCC5 and GCC7)

IASL: 20211217

OS: Ubuntu-20.04-LTS

Source: Latest EDK2 "master" source is being used for compilation.

All pre-build tests has been run successfully.

With the above-mentioned toolchains, we could successfully able to build
 BIOS images for TigerlakeURVP platform. But for WhitleyOpenBoardPkg, errors are thrown.

Error screenshot has been attached with this mail for reference.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,

Akber
