[edk2-devel] [Patch] ShellPkg/AcpiView: Fix IA32 link error

[Sami Mujawar]

Hi Mike,

Since LocalityCount is 64-bit wide the SLIT validation code could possibly end up in an infinite loop. I am not aware of a platform that has a large enough LocalityCount to hit this condition. However, would it be good to have a check that limits the validation to MAX_UINT32?

e.g. Something like
if  (LocalityCount < MAX_UINT32) {
  // Validate
  for (Count = 0; Count < LocalityCount; Count++) {
    for (Index = 0; Index < LocalityCount; Index++) {
  ...
} else {
  Print (L"INFO: Skipping validation of System Localities as locality count is > MAX_UINT32\n");
}

Regards,

Sami Mujawar

https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1970

Update local variable in ParseAcpiSlot() to be UINT32 instead of UINT64 to avoid 64-bit multiply operation in the SLIT_ELEMENT() macro.
