which one is the "authoritative" first name that you would like to use
in edk2 context?

For example, if you sent a patch tomorrow, would it come from

- Aaron Li <aaron...@intel.com>

or

- Songpeng Li <songpeng...@intel.com>

?

The idea of the mailmap file is that we establish a "canonical" and
"live" {name, email-address} pair for each contributor, and map
everything else that has stood for the same contributor in the past to
the canonical pair.

(We have to be careful with cross-domain mappings, such as
cross-employer mappings -- which is why every contributor is asked to
R-b such changes, from their current (hence canonical) address.)

In fact your present email contains R-b from "Songpeng" in the body, but
the "From:" header on your email says "Aaron". So I would suggest that
Phil capture "Aaron" as your canonical name, and map "Songpeng" to it.
Then we'd ask you to R-b that patch from your "Aaron" address.

Does that make sense?

Thanks,
Laszlo
