Hi Pete,

Well prodded (off-list).

I expect I saw that arrive, expected the corresponding RPi
resubmission to arrive shortly afterwards for me to test with and put
it soundly at the back of my mind. Presumably you were waiting for
this to be merged before resubmitting that one?

Yes. I tend to find it inconvenient to reference to work that has not yet been integrated, as I'm not sure how you're suppose to reference it. Should you point to an edk2-devel post in the commit message? In the cover letter? Something else?

As a result, provided the dependency should be simple enough to review independently, I prefer to alleviate that issue by just waiting for it to be integrated. But if that's a problem, I can certainly ensure that future co-dependent patches are submitted together.

Anyway:
Reviewed-by: Leif Lindholm <[email protected]>
Pushed as bbb8a8185838.

Thanks!

Regards,

Leif

These can be used, for instance, to automate the population of an SMBIOS
Type 0 BIOS Release Date when building a UEFI firmware (which is how we
plan to use these macros for the Raspberry Pi platform).

These macros should work for any compiler that follows ISO/IEC 9899, but
we add a check for the compiler we have tested to be on the safe side.

Note that we decided against adding a #error or #warn for compilers that
haven't been validated, as we don't want to introduce breakage for people
who may already be using the header with something else than gcc, MSVC or
Clang. Instead, we expect those to send a patch that adds their compiler
to the list, once they have tested the macros there.
