2. Add MODULE_UNI_FILE file that contains the localized Abstract and Description of a module.
a. Addresses an information gap between INF files and the UEFI Distribution Packaging Specification XML schema
b. There will be an associated update to UPT in BaseTools to consume MODULE_UNI_FILE and associated UNI file during UDP creation that performs the INF -> XML conversion.
c. There will be an associated update to UPT in BaseTools to produce MODULE_UNI_FILE and associated UNI file during UDP installation that performs the XML -> INF conversion.
3. Add Module Extra UNI file that provides the localized Name of a module.
a. [UserExtensions.TianoCore."ExtraFiles"] provides an easy method for a module to specify extra files not listed in [Sources] or [Binaries] sections to be added to a UDP without having to list the files in the UPT package information data file.
b. There will be an associated update to UPT in BaseTools to package up files listed in [UserExtensions.TianoCore."ExtraFiles"] during UDP creation.
c. UNI file contains localized name of a module to go along with the localized Abstract and Description from the MODULE_UNI_FILE.

1. Usage information in INF file comment blocks are either incomplete or incorrect.
This includes usage information for Protocols/PPIs/GUIDs/PCDs/HOBs/Events/BootModes.
The syntax for usage information in comment blocks is defined in the EDK II Module Information (INF) Specification

PEI variable implementation checks only the variable header signature for validity. This does not seem robust if system crash occurred during previous Reclaim() operation. If the crash occurred while FTW was rewriting the variable FV, the signature could be valid even though the rest of the FV isn't valid.
Solution: PEI variable and early phase(before FTW protocol ready) of DXE variable can check the FTW last write status provided by FaultTolerantWritePei and determine if all or partial variable data has been backed up in spare block, and then use the backed up data.
