Grzegorz,

It is a little late to the party to provide broad feedback (given you 
are on v5) but i'll do it anyway and if anything resonates maybe you can 
make a few changes.


This patchset (for modules/libraries in SecurityPkg) does not resolve a 
major issue within the SecurityPkg design today.  Not that it has to, 
but when creating new abstractions/APIs it would be ideal this problem. 
  The SecurityPkg modules and libraries today mix platform 
policy/assumptions with generic data manipulation and specification 
defined behavior.

For example the new SecureBootVariableLib.  This library contains 
functions that load default keys from flash (platform), delete the SB 
databases (platform policy), as well as helper functions for creating 
variable auth payloads, sig lists, etc (spec defined data manipulation). 
  If this library was refactored into two libraries (a pure data 
manipulation library and platform lib) it would significantly improve 
the usefulness of this library (to me and i suspect many other consumers 
of edk2).

1. Reduce the number of forks or instances other consumers would need. 
Other consumers of edk2 could use the data manipulation lib without 
taking on the burden of the platform config stuff that may or may not 
apply to their platform.  Other consumers might also then help maintain 
this library because they would be using it in their platform.

2. A data manipulation library could be easily unit tested using the 
host based unit test framework.  This would provide significantly higher 
confidence in code and changes and most likely reduce quality issues.

3. A platform lib would make clear the platform requirements for using 
the modules and applications and allow platform maintainers to focus on 
this API and dependencies.

Anyway, given how long and tedious the edk2 contribution process is and 
that you already have most of the SecurityPkg RBs I can understand if 
this unwelcome feedback.

Thanks
Sean
