Hello,
The mantis ticket (created by Jose Marinho) is available at:
https://mantis.uefi.org/mantis/view.php?id=2386

Also, are there any comments on the patch-set ?

Regards,
Pierre

Hi Jiewen,

There is an open ECR for UEFI spec review: 
https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4441. These patches can wait on 
the list until the ECR is reviewed by UEFI Forum and the decision is documented 
in the BZ. If approved, then the code patches should be able to proceed.

Thanks,
--Samer

Subject: RE: [PATCH v1 4/8] MdePkg/Rng: Add GUIDs to describe Rng algorithms

Is this defined in UEFI spec? or approved in future UEFI spec?

Subject: [PATCH v1 4/8] MdePkg/Rng: Add GUIDs to describe Rng algorithms

From: Pierre Gondois <pierre.gond...@arm.com>

BZ: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4441

The EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL can rely on the RngLib. The RngLib has multiple
implementations, some of them are unsafe (e.g. BaseRngLibTimerLib).
To allow the RngDxe to detect when such implementation is used,
a GetRngGuid() function is added in a following patch.

Prepare GetRngGuid() return values and add GUIDs describing
Rng algorithms:
- gEfiRngAlgorithmArmRndr
to describe a Rng algorithm accessed through Arm's RNDR instruction.
[1] states that the implementation of this algorithm should be
compliant to NIST SP900-80. The compliance is not guaranteed.
- gEfiRngAlgorithmUnSafe
to describe an unsafe implementation, cf. the BaseRngLibTimerLib.
