We met a case on GCC toolchain for increment build. the case is user
build Helloworld first, then rename the source file Helloworld.c to
Helloworld_new.c and also update the file name to Helloworld_new.c in
.inf file's [sources] section. finally, he rebuild it again.
It cause build failure due to multiple definition of `UefiMain' because
in the .lib file it both have Helloworld.obj and Helloworld_new.obj.
current we use the option 'cr' to create the .lib file while the 'r'
cmd means replace existing or insert new files into the archive. so
in this patch before we create the .lib file, we delete it first.

As a security measure, some distros now build their GCC toolchains with

for ASLR to be enabled when running the executable.
This typically results in slightly larger code, but it also generates
ELF relocations that our tooling cannot deal with, so let's disable it
explicitly when using GCC49 or later for IA32. (Note that this does not
apply to X64: it uses PIE code deliberately in some cases, and our

However, ".eh_frame" is back now; in upstream gcc commit 9cbee213b579 [4]

"-funwind-tables" were made the default for AARCH64. (The patch author
described the effects on the gcc mailing list [5].) We have to counter the
latter flag with "-fno-unwind-tables", otherwise GenFw chokes on
".eh_frame" again (triggered for example on Fedora 28).
"-f[no-]unwind-tables" goes back to at least gcc-4.4 [6], so it's safe to

TianoCore BZ#700 [1]
Set the '-Wno-unused-const-variables' in RELEASE builds with the
GGC49 and GCC5 toolchain.
This fixes the RELEASE build of OVMF with GCC in version 6 or newer.
GCC 6 added the '-Wunused-const-variable' warning, which gets
activated by '-Wunused-variable' and has the following behavior:
"Warn whenever a constant static variable is unused aside from its
declaration" [2]
Commit 2ad6ba80a1 introduced a case
where exactly this happens on a RELEASE build. All uses of the static
const variable are located in debug code only, which gets thrown out
by the compiler on RELEASE builds and thus triggers the
unused-const-variable warning.
There is currently no GCC 6 toolchain target defined and doing so
would add a lot of boilerplate code. Instead, use the fact that GCC
ignores unknown '-Wno-*' options:
"[...] if the -Wno- form is used [...] no diagnostic is produced for
-Wno-unknown-warning unless other diagnostics are being produced"
This behavior is available in GCC 4.9 [3] (and also earlier, for that
matter), so add the flag to the GCC49 and GCC5 toolchain, even if
both GCC versions do not supports it.
GCC49 doesn't enables LTO whereas GCC5 does. As GCC 6.0 through 6.2
had bugs relating to LTO there can be desire to use the GCC49 target
even if compiling with GCC 6, see 432f1d83f7.
Orient the changes on 20d00edf21 which moved the
'-Wno-unused-but-set-variable' flag to RELEASE builds only, as there
it ensure that it does not gets raised if the only usage of a
variable is in (then collapsed) debug code.

[lersek@redhat.com: fix typo in subject]
While modern AARCH64 server systems use ACPI for describing the platform
topology to the OS, ARM systems and AARCH64 outside of the server space
mostly use device tree binaries, which are compiled from device tree
source files using the device tree compiler.
Currently, such source files and binaries may be kept in the EDK2 platform
trees, but are not integrated with the build, which means they need to be
kept in sync and recompiled manually, which is cumbersome.
So let's wire up BaseTools support for them: add tool definitions for the
DTC compiler and preprocessor flags that allow these source files to use
FixedPcd expressions and other macros defined by AutoGen.h
This way, a device tree binary can be built from source and emitted into
a FFS file automatically using something like:
DeviceTree.inf:
[Defines]
INF_VERSION = 0x00010019
BASE_NAME = SomePlatformDeviceTree
FILE_GUID = 25462CDA-221F-47DF-AC1D-259CFAA4E326 # gDtPlatformDefaultDtbFileGuid
MODULE_TYPE = USER_DEFINED
VERSION_STRING = 1.0
[Sources]
SomePlatform.dts
[Packages]
MdePkg/MdePkg.dec
SomePlatform.fdf:
INF RuleOverride = DTB xxx/yyy/DeviceTree.inf
[Rule.Common.USER_DEFINED.DTB]
FILE FREEFORM = $(NAMED_GUID) {
RAW BIN |.dtb
}
where it can be picked at runtime by the DTB loader that may refer to it
using gDtPlatformDefaultDtbFileGuid.
Note that this is very similar to how ACPI tables may be emitted into a
FFS file with a known GUID and picked up by AcpiTableDxe at runtime.

3.18 Options for Code Generation Conventions

'-fPIE'

position independent code can be only linked into executables.
Usually these options are used when '-pie' GCC option is used

'-fpie' and '-fPIE' both define the macros '__pie__' and

On AARCH64, any code that may execute with the MMU off needs to be built
with -mstrict-align, given that unaligned accesses are not allowed unless
the MMU is enabled. This does not only affect SEC and PEI modules, but
also static libraries of the BASE type, which may be linked into such
modules, as well as into modules of other types. As it turns out, the
presence of -mstrict-align is reflected in the internal representations
of the types defined in those libraries.
When -fstrict-aliasing is passed to GCC, it assumes that pointers to
objects of different types cannot refer to the same memory location, and
attempts to exploit this fact when optimizing the code. Since such
assumptions are only valid under very strict conditions which are not
guaranteed to be met in EDK2, we disable this optimization by passing
-fno-strict-aliasing by default. [*]
When LTO is in effect, this applies equally to the code generation that
may occur at link time, which is why the linker warns about unexpected
differences in type definitions between the intermediate representations
that are present in the object files being linked. This may result in
warnings such as the one below, even if -fno-strict-aliasing is used:
MdePkg/Include/Library/BaseLib.h:1712:1:
warning: type of 'StrToGuid' does not match original declaration
[-Wlto-type-mismatch]
StrToGuid (
^
MdePkg/Library/BaseLib/SafeString.c:1506:1:
note: 'StrToGuid' was previously declared here
StrToGuid (
^
MdePkg/Library/BaseLib/SafeString.c:1506:1:
note: code may be misoptimized unless -fno-strict-aliasing is used
This warning is inadvertently triggered when linking BASE libraries built
with -mstrict-align into modules of types other than SEC or PEI, since the
types are subtly different, even though the use of code that maintains
strict alignment in a module that does not care about this is unlikely to
cause problems. And even if it did, it would still only affect code built
with -fstrict-aliasing enabled, which we disable unconditionally. So let's
just silence the warning by passing -Wno-lto-type-mismatch.
[*] Leif adds: "-fstrict-aliasing is GCC default, because it is a
restriction in the C language. Because it's a bit non-obvious, things
can go hilariously wrong in very non-obvious ways, and the potential
optimization gains are unlikely to be generally relevant,
-fno-strict-aliasing is a sensible thing to always have set (like we
do)."

Update BaseTools/Conf/tools_def.template to add the define
-D NO_MSABI_VAARGS
To CC_FLAGS for X64 XCODE5 builds.
The llvm/clang compiler used in XCODE5 builds supports the
_ms_ versions of the vararg builtins, but the compiler
generates build errors.
The recommendation from the XCODE5 experts is to never use
the _ms_ version of the vararg builtins. The define
NO_MSABI_VARARGS is already supported in MdePkg/Include/Base.h
and forces the use the standard vararg builtins.

Now, -fno-builtin option is added for the specific GCC tool chain.
It is a generic option. It can be moved to common GCC option to keep
the consistent compiler option.

As a security measure, some distro toolchains now default to PIC code
generation, allowing executables (as opposed to shared libraries) using
the objects to be built as PIE binaries, which can be loaded at a random
virtual offset.
However, our ELF to PE/COFF generation code does not deal with the
resulting relocation types (i.e., GOT based), and so the use of PIC code
leads to GenFw errors.
Given that
a) our non-PIC PE/COFF executables are already relocatable,
b) PIC code leads to all symbol references to be indirected via GOT
entries containing absolute addresses, each requiring an entry in the
relocation table,
c) the AArch64 ISA makes it perfectly feasible to built PIE executables
from non-PIC code,
there is absolutely no upside to using PIC code for building EDK2 modules,
and so we're better off simply disabling it unconditionally.
Note that when running under the OS, the GOT has an additional advantage,
i.e., that all .text/.rodata pages remain clean and so can be shared between
processes. This does not apply to the UEFI environment, however.
