Hi, Liming:
Thanks for your reply!
I checked map file, not find this global data array.
I found if added this build option in this PEIM's inf, then it seems ok.
[BuildOptions]
MSFT:*_*_IA32_CC_FLAGS = /Gw-
Thanks

If this global variable is used by code, it will be linked into the final EFI
image. You can check whether the generate map file includes it.
