Thanks for the patch!
The reference to commit 277a3958d93a is very welcome.
(1) However, this patch doesn't follow commit 277a3958d93a closely
enough. The present patch only conditionalizes some FDF files. We should
conditionalize the DSC files too, otherwise we're still going to build
LinuxInitrdDynamicShellCommand, just not include it in the firmware.
(2) The "Fixes:" reference is incorrect. Technically, the issue (for
XCODE5) was introduced in the commit that modified the FDF file(s).
Therefore, based on "git-blame", we should have
Fixes: ec41733cfd10
Now, if you look at that commit -- i.e., "OvmfPkg: add the 'initrd'
dynamic shell command" --, then not only will you find the parts in the
DSC files that are necessary to gate (per my point (1) above), you'll
also notice my next point:
(3) The present patch only covers 2 out of the 4 OvmfPkg platforms;
namely, "OvmfPkgIa32X64" and "OvmfXen" are missed.
Please extend the patch to those platforms as well.
In total, the patch should modify 8 files:
OvmfPkg/OvmfPkgIa32.dsc
OvmfPkg/OvmfPkgIa32.fdf
OvmfPkg/OvmfPkgIa32X64.dsc
OvmfPkg/OvmfPkgIa32X64.fdf
OvmfPkg/OvmfPkgX64.dsc
OvmfPkg/OvmfPkgX64.fdf
OvmfPkg/OvmfXen.dsc
OvmfPkg/OvmfXen.fdf
because they all reference
"OvmfPkg/LinuxInitrdDynamicShellCommand/LinuxInitrdDynamicShellCommand.inf".
Thanks!
