The Section 6.1.3, SMBIOS specification version 3.6.0 describes the
handling of test strings in SMBIOS tables.
Text strings are added at the end of the formatted portion of the SMBIOS
structure and are referenced by index in the SMBIOS structure.
Therefore, introduce a SmbiosStringTableLib to simplify the publishing
of the string set.
SmbiosStringTableLib introduces a concept of string table which records
the references to the SMBIOS strings as they are added and returns an
string reference which is then assigned to the string field in the
formatted portion of the SMBIOS structure. Once all strings are added,
the library provides an interface to get the required size for the string
set. This allows sufficient memory to be allocated for the SMBIOS table.
The library also provides an interface to publish the string set in
accordance with the SMBIOS specification.
Example:
EFI_STATUS
BuildSmbiosType17Table () {
STRING_TABLE StrTable;
UINT8 DevLocatorRef;
UINT8 BankLocatorRef;
SMBIOS_TABLE_TYPE17 *SmbiosRecord;
CHAR8 *StringSet;
...
// Initialize string table for 7 strings
StringTableInitialize (&StrTable, 7);
StringTableAddString (&StrTable, "SIMM 3", &DevLocatorRef);
StringTableAddString (&StrTable, "Bank 0", &BankLocatorRef);
...
SmbiosRecord = AllocateZeroPool (
sizeof (SMBIOS_TABLE_TYPE17) +
StringTableGetStringSetSize (&StrTable)
);
...
SmbiosRecord->DeviceLocator = DevLocatorRef;
SmbiosRecord->BankLocator = BankLocatorRef;
...
// get the string set area
StringSet = (CHAR8*)(SmbiosRecord + 1);
// publish the string set
StringTablePublishStringSet (
&StrTable,
StringSet,
StringTableGetStringSetSize (&StrTable)
);
// free string table
StringTableFree (&StrTable);
return EFI_SUCCESS;
}

The DynamicPlatRepo library allows to handle dynamically created
CmObj. The dynamic platform repository can be in the following states:
1 - Non-initialised
2 - Transient:
Possibility to add CmObj to the platform, but not to query them.
3 - Finalised:
Possibility to query CmObj, but not to add new.
A token is allocated to each CmObj added to the dynamic platform
repository (except for reference tokens CmObj). This allows to retrieve
dynamic CmObjs among all CmObj (static CmObj for instance).
This patch add the inf file of the module and the main module
functionnalities and update the dsc file of the package.

Hardware information parser is an optional module defined
by the Dynamic Tables Framework. It can either parse an
XML, a Device Tree or a Json file containing the platform
hardware information to populate the platform information
repository.
FdtHwInfoParser library is an instance of a HwInfoParser
that parses a Device Tree and populates the Configuration
Manager Platform information repository.
FdtHwInfoParser library is aimed at providing a solution
for generating ACPI tables for Guest Partitions launched
by virtual machine managers (VMMs). One such use case is
Kvmtool where the Device Tree for the Guest is passed on
to the firmware by Kvmtool. The Configuration Manager for
Kvmtool firmware shall invoke the FdtHwInfoParser to parse
the Device Tree to populate the hardware information in
the Platform Info Repository. The Kvmtool Configuration
Manager can the process this information to generate the
required ACPI tables for the Guest VM.
This approach also scales well if the number of CPUs or
if the hardware configuration of the Guest partition is
varied.
FdtHwInfoParser thereby introduces 'Dynamic Tables for
Virtual Machines'.

According to Arm Server Base Boot Requirements,
Platform Design Document version 1.2 revision D,
September 2, 2019, section '4.2.1.8 SPCR'; The
SPCR console device must be included in the DSDT.
Additionally, it is often desirable to describe the
serial ports available on a platform so that they
are available for use by a rich OS.
To facilitate the description of serial ports on a
platform a common SSDT Serial Port Fixup library is
introduced. It provides interfaces to build a SSDT
serial port definition block table based on the
serial port information.
The SSDT Serial Port Fixup library is used by the
SPCR, DBG2 and SSDT Serial Port generator to describe
the serial port information in a definition block.
+------------+ +------------+ +------------+
| SPCR Gen | | DBG2 Gen | | SERIAL Gen |
+------------+ +------------+ +------------+
+----------------------------------+
| SSDT Serial Port Fixup library |
+----------------------------------+
The SSDT Serial Port Fixup library:
- Parses the SSDT Serial Port template using the
AmlLib library to generate an AML tree.
- Updates the _UID, _HID and _CID values.
- Fixes up the Serial port base address, length
and the interrupt number in the _CRS descriptor.
- Fixes up the serial-port name.
- Serialises the AML Tree to a buffer containing
the definition block data.
The definition block data is then installed by the
corresponding table generator.

ACPI Definition blocks are implemented using AML which has
a complex grammar making run-time generation of definition
blocks difficult. Dynamic AML is a feature of Dynamic Tables
framework that provides a solution for dynamic generation of
ACPI Definition block tables.
Since, AML bytecode represents complex AML grammar, an AmlLib
library is introduced to assist parsing and traversing of the
AML bytecode at run-time.
The AmlLib library parses a definition block and represents it
as an AML tree. The AML objects, methods and data are represented
as tree nodes. Since the AML data is represented as tree nodes,
it is possible to traverse the tree, locate a node and modify the
node data. The tree can then be serialized to a buffer (that
represents the definition block). This definition block containing
the fixed-up AML code can then be installed as an ACPI Definition
Block table.
Dynamic AML introduces the following techniques:
* AML Fixup
* AML Codegen
* AML Fixup + Codegen
AML Fixup is a technique that involves compiling an ASL template
file to generate AML bytecode. This template AML bytecode can be
parsed at run-time and a fixup code can update the required fields
in the AML template.
AML Codegen employs generating small segments of AML code.
AmlLib provides a rich set of APIs to operate on AML data for AML
Fixup and Codegen.

DynamicTablesPkg can be built for ARM as well as for AARCH64, but on
the former, doing so will result in a build failure due to the lack
of 64-bit division helpers provided by the ArmPkg intrinsics library.
So add the missing reference, for both ARM and AARCH64 (which may
start relying on intrinsics due to future changes)
