109 Notes On Required Tools (MS Windows environment example)
\r
110 -----------------------
\r
111 Software Installation Order:
\r
112 After installing the compiler tools and your Subversion client, the following
\r
113 required tools should be installed in order:
\r
114 Java JDK, Apache-Ant, ant-contrib, xmlbeans, saxon8
\r
116 Java Development Kit:
\r
118 The Java Environment Variable must be set before attempting to build.
\r
119 i.e. For Sun JDK (see note below*):
\r
120 set JAVA_HOME=c:\ Java\jdk1.5.0_06
\r
121 i.e. For Bea Systems:
\r
122 set JAVA_HOME=c:\Program Files\Java\jrockit-R26.0.0-jdk1.5.0_04
\r
124 *When using the Sun JDK5.0
\r
125 During installation, you should specify the install directory as C:\Java
\r
126 instead of C:\Program Files\(or some other drive letter.) While installing
\r
127 to this non-standard location is not required. In use, it seems to work
\r
129 For the JDK, the install path would be C:\Java\jdk1.5.0_06
\r
130 For the JRE, the install path would be C:\Java\jre1.5.0_06
\r
131 Alternatively, you can specify C:\sunjavajdk and C:\sunjavajre.
\r
132 NOTE: You cannot combine the location for the JDK and the JRE, as the JRE
\r
133 install removes most of the binaries and libraries installed by the JDK
\r
137 The Apache-ANT requires the ANT_HOME environment variable to be set before
\r
138 attempting to build:
\r
139 i.e. set ANT_HOME=c:\ant
\r
141 The ant-contrib.jar file should be installed in the %ANT_HOME%\lib
\r
144 The XMLBeans, requires the XMLBEANS_HOME environment variable to be set
\r
145 before attempting to build:
\r
146 i.e. set XMLBEANS_HOME=C:\XMLBEANS
\r
148 The saxon8.jar file should be copied to the %XMLBEANS_HOME%\lib directory.
\r
150 The Ant and XMLBean tools are required to be in the path.
\r
152 set PATH=%PATH%;%ANT_HOME%\bin;%XMLBEANS_HOME%\bin
\r
153 Linux/OS X bash shell example:
\r
154 export PATH=$PATH:${ANT_HOME}/bin:${XMLBEANS_HOME}/bin
\r
156 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\r
159 Edit the text file, tools_def.txt, located in the Tools/Conf directory. This
\r
160 file contains the names of the compiler tool chains and the location of the
\r
161 compiler binaries. It has been pre-populated with the standard location for
\r
162 the Microsoft tool chains and includes the standard location of the Intel C
\r
163 Compiler for EFI Byte Code (EBC)
\r
165 Follow the instructions at https://edk2.tianocore.org/servlets/ProjectSource to
\r
166 checkout the entire EDK 2.0 source tree.
\r
168 In a command window, change to the top level directory of the Edk 2.0 sources.
\r
169 Set the WORKSPACE environment variable, e.g.:
\r
171 c:\> set WORKSPACE=C:\MyWork\Edk2.0
\r
173 To test your tool chain setup and to build the Supplied Tools, execute:
\r
174 c:\MyWork\Edk2.0\> edksetup
\r
176 (This command will be referred to as the setup command throughout the rest of
\r
178 NOTE: You should run the setup command at the start of every session.
\r
179 This configures the environment to include the TianoTools and the
\r
180 Java applications and libraries.
\r
182 Once this is completed, you are ready to test the Build, by executing:
\r
183 c:\MyWork\Edk2.0\> ant
\r
185 This command builds all of the packages, including the NT32 reference platform.
\r
187 -------------------------
\r
188 Individual Package Builds
\r
189 -------------------------
\r
190 After running the setup command, you can build individual packages.
\r
191 In the command window, cd to the package that you want to build, and just
\r
193 c:\MyWork\Edk2.0\EdkNt32Pkg\> ant
\r
195 The EdkNt32Pkg has a special target; "run" that will execute the Nt32 emulation
\r
196 platform under Microsoft Windows.
\r
198 ------------------------
\r
199 Individual Module Builds
\r
200 ------------------------
\r
201 After running the setup command, you can build individual modules.
\r
202 In the command window, cd to the module that you want to build, and just
\r
204 c:\MyWork\Edk2.0\MdePkg\Library\BaseLib\> ant
\r
206 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\r
207 A Word on Apache-ANT
\r
208 --------------------
\r
209 The Apache-ANT program is a build tool that uses XML-based project files.
\r
210 Similar to Makefiles, these project files may contain multiple targets. Most
\r
211 build.xml files in Edk2.0 are auto-generated; any edits performed on the
\r
212 build.xml files will be overwritten the next time ant is executed.
\r
214 Pre-defined targets in the build.xml files include:
\r
215 all - This target builds binaries for defined architectures
\r
216 clean - This target removes object files generated by commands
\r
217 cleanall - This target removes all generated files and directories.
\r
219 A Word on GCC tool chain
\r
220 ------------------------
\r
221 You will find a script in the tree that will download, configure, compile, and
\r
222 install a gcc 4.0.2 tool chain for development. It has support for the ia32
\r
223 architecture. It can be built and run on Cygwin, Linux, and many other POSIX
\r
224 compliant host environments. There are a few tools that you will need on your
\r
225 host computer in order to compile the tool chain. Among them are bash, gcc,
\r
226 gmake, curl (or wget).
\r
228 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\r
230 General Information:
\r
231 ===============================================================
\r
234 A quick understanding:
\r
236 A) Surface Area Package Description (SPD) file contains information about the
\r
237 modules that the package contains, including the location of all MSA files, and
\r
238 public library names and headers that might be provided by a module in the
\r
239 package. Packages are defined by SPD files. (Found in the root of the Package
\r
240 subdirectory (i.e. EdkNt32Pkg)) The SPD is further explained in the "Build
\r
241 Packaging Specification" document.
\r
243 B) Module Surface Area Definition (MSA) files. A description of a module's
\r
244 surface area, with all module specific default flags and features specified.
\r
245 Refer to the "Module Surface Area Architecture Specification" for additional
\r
246 details. The MSA is further explained in the "Build Packaging Specification"
\r
249 C) Module Build Description (MDB). The "as-built" definition file that contains
\r
250 only the changes to the default flags defined in the MSA. The MSA and MDB are
\r
251 further explained in the "Build Packaging Specification" document.
\r
253 D) Platform Configuration Database (PCD). A platform database which contains a
\r
254 variety of current platform settings or directives by which a driver or
\r
255 application can interact with. The PCD is defined by the PCD_Protocol (This is
\r
256 further explained in the "Platform Configuration Database Infrastructure
\r
257 Description" document.
\r
259 E) Library Class. A library class is a logical grouping of similar functions.
\r
260 When developing components, the module surface area declares the class of
\r
261 libraries that can be used by the component. The MBD file specifies the
\r
262 instance(s) of the library that will be used during compilation/linking. All
\r
263 library type modules must include header files in their distribution package,
\r
264 as well as their surface area and module build description files. Components,
\r
265 on the other hand, need only provide the binary and build description files
\r
266 when distributing BINARY packages. The Library Classes are further explained
\r
267 in the "Build Packaging Specification" document.
\r
269 =========================================================================
\r
270 The common operations by developers of new modules are:
\r
271 -------------------------------------------------------
\r
273 1) How to manually create a new module in a package:
\r
274 - The module source code must first be created in an appropriate directory
\r
275 (under the package the module is to be a part of.)
\r
276 - An MSA file must be created, spelling out all aspects of the module.
\r
277 - The MSA must be added to the SPD for the package to include the module.
\r
279 -----------------------------------------
\r
280 2) Add/Remove module(s) to/from a package:
\r
282 - Setup environment as Build
\r
283 - Add a module to a package
\r
284 * Generate the module SurfaceArea description file and build description
\r
286 * Run GenBuildFile.bat under <PackageDir> to generate an entrance
\r
287 build.xml for the module
\r
288 * Add a new <MsaFile> element under <MsaFiles> into
\r
289 <PackageDir>\<PackageName>.spd, using relative path to package
\r
290 * Add a new <ModuleSA> entry under each <TianoImage> into
\r
291 <PackageDir>\<PackageName>.fpd file
\r
293 - Remove a module from a package
\r
294 * Comment out or remove corresponding <MsaFile> element under <MsaFiles>
\r
295 from <PackageDir>\<PackageName>.spd
\r
296 * Comment out or remove corresponding <ModuleSA> entry under each
\r
297 <TianoImage> from <PackageDir>\<PackageName>.fpd
\r
299 -----------------------------------
\r
300 3) How to manually create a package:
\r
301 - Identify the modules that are to be members of the project.
\r
302 - Identify the Variables and Guids required in and of the Package (including
\r
303 consumption/production information).
\r
304 - Create an SPD file defining these modules and calling out their MSA files.
\r
306 --------------------------------------
\r
307 4) Declare a new Protocol in a package:
\r
308 - This release requires manual editing of the SPD file, adding the protocol
\r
309 to the ProtocolDeclarations section of the file.
\r
310 - Add the Protocol .h file to the Include\Protocol directory.
\r
311 - Add an entry to the Protocol.info file
\r
312 * Each line contains Protocol base name then the global variable name and
\r
313 then the hex value of the Protocol GUID.
\r
315 Example Protocol.info file (2 lines):
\r
316 UnicodeCollation gEfiUnicodeCollationProtocolGuid
\r
317 { 0x1d85cd7f, 0xf43d, 0x11d2, 0x9a, 0xc, 0x0, 0x90, 0x27, 0x3f, 0xc1, 0x4d }
\r
318 UsbHc gEfiUsbHcProtocolGuid
\r
319 { 0xf5089266, 0x1aa0, 0x4953, 0x97, 0xd8, 0x56, 0x2f, 0x8a, 0x73, 0xb5, 0x19 }
\r
321 ---------------------------------
\r
322 5) Declare a new PPI in a package:
\r
323 - This release requires manual editing of the SPD file
\r
324 - Add the PPI .h file to the Include\Ppi directory.
\r
325 - Add an entry to the Ppi.info file
\r
326 * Each line contains PPI base name then the global variable name and then
\r
327 the hex value of the PPI GUID.
\r
329 Example Ppi.info file (2 lines):
\r
330 NtPeiLoadFile gNtPeiLoadFilePpiGuid
\r
331 { 0xfd0c65eb, 0x405, 0x4cd2, 0x8a, 0xee, 0xf4, 0x0, 0xef, 0x13, 0xba, 0xc2 }
\r
332 NtThunk gPeiNtThunkPpiGuid
\r
333 { 0x98c281e5, 0xf906, 0x43dd, 0xa9, 0x2b, 0xb0, 0x3, 0xbf, 0x27, 0x65, 0xda }
\r
335 ----------------------------------
\r
336 6) Declare a new GUID in a package:
\r
337 - This release requires manual editing of the SPD file to include the new
\r
340 ---------------------------------------
\r
341 7) Declare a new PCD entry in a package:
\r
342 - This release requires manual editing of the SPD file to include the new
\r
345 ------------------------------
\r
346 8) Declare a new Library Class:
\r
347 - This release requires manual editing of the SPD file to include the new
\r
350 --------------------------------------
\r
351 9) Add a library instance to a package:
\r
352 - This requires manual MSA and MBD file.
\r
354 -----------------------------
\r
355 10) Add a module to a package:
\r
356 - This requires manual MSA and MBD editing
\r
359 =======================================================
\r
362 The EDK 2.0 represents significant changes in the structure of the EDK.
\r
363 Therefore it is very difficult to isolate all of the changes of this version of
\r
364 the EDK with the previous (EDK 1.0) version.
\r
366 Of particular note:
\r
368 1) EDK 2.0 contains new hardware feature support for the ICH SMBUS Libraries.
\r
369 These libraries are provided to make Memory Reference Code (MRC) development
\r
371 2) The MDE Libraries - The MDE libraries resent significant changes in source
\r
372 (with only limited changes in functionality.) These new libraries conform
\r
373 to the "MDE Library Specification".
\r
374 3) The Fat Binary and the EDK Shell Binary Packages are functionally identical
\r
375 to the EDK 1.0 version.
\r
376 4) The EDK tools directory has been expanded to include more tools and more
\r
377 tool functionality.
\r
378 5) The EDK NT32 section has been ported to the new build process, but
\r
379 functionally remains the same as the EDK 1.0 version.
\r
380 6) The Application "HelloWorld" has been ported to EDK 2.0 as well.
