1. The PPI interface supports to set and clear any attributes with single invocation. That's much better than the existing UEFI protocol prototype which requires caller to call the interfaces twice to set and clear some attributes.
So far I see two patterns for attributes setting: *. The patten in this patch: SetMask/ClearMask *. The pattern I used in PageTableLib: Attribute/Mask. I think from caller side, they provide the same capabilities. The difference is SetMask/ClearMask expects callers to not set the same BIT in both SetMask/ClearMask. (I thought there would be similar existing interfaces as pattern 2. But I didn't find any now.) Do you mind to align to pattern #2? 2. When a memory region is marked from not-present to present, PageTableLib expects caller to supply all memory attributes (including RW, NX, etc.) as the lib implementation doesn't want to carry any default attributes.. Do you think the MemoryAttribute PPI should expect the same to caller?
