Michael Kinney fd0597aa9c BaseTools/Scripts: Add BinToPcd utility
https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=228

Add a utility that converts a binary file into a VOID* PCD value
or a full DSC file VOID* PCD statement with support for all the
DSC supported PCD sections.

usage: BinToPcd [-h] [--version] -i INPUTFILE [-o OUTPUTFILE] [-p PCDNAME]
                [-t {VPD,HII}] [-m MAXSIZE] [-f OFFSET] [-n VARIABLENAME]
                [-g VARIABLEGUID] [-v] [-q] [--debug [0-9]]

Convert a binary file to a VOID* PCD value or DSC file VOID* PCD statement.

optional arguments:
  -h, --help        show this help message and exit
  --version         show program's version number and exit
  -i INPUTFILE, --input INPUTFILE
                    Input binary filename
  -o OUTPUTFILE, --output OUTPUTFILE
                    Output filename for PCD value or PCD statement
  -p PCDNAME, --pcd PCDNAME
                    Name of the PCD in the form
                    <PcdTokenSpaceGuidCName>.<PcdCName>
  -t {VPD,HII}, --type {VPD,HII}
                    PCD statement type (HII or VPD). Default is standard.
  -m MAXSIZE, --max-size MAXSIZE
                    Maximum size of the PCD. Ignored with --type HII.
  -f OFFSET, --offset OFFSET
                    VPD offset if --type is VPD. UEFI Variable offset if
                    --type is HII.
  -n VARIABLENAME, --variable-name VARIABLENAME
                    UEFI variable name. Only used with --type HII.
  -g VARIABLEGUID, --variable-guid VARIABLEGUID
                    UEFI variable GUID C name. Only used with --type HII.
  -v, --verbose     Increase output messages
  -q, --quiet       Reduce output messages
  --debug [0-9]     Set debug level

This utility can be used in PCD value mode to convert a binary
file into a string that can then be copied into the PCD value field
of a VOID* PCD.  The following is an example of PCD value mode on
an 8 byte test.bin file.

  BinToPcd.py -i test.bin

  {0x48, 0x65, 0x6c, 0x6c, 0x6f, 0x20, 0x0d, 0x0a}

The DSC file VOID* PCD statement mode can be used to generate a
complete PCD statement for the PCD section types that a DSC file
supports:

  [PcdsFixedAtBuild]
  [PcdsPatchableInModule]
  [PcdsDynamicDefault]
  [PcdsDynamicExDefault]
  [PcdsDynamicVpd]
  [PcdsDynamicExVpd]
  [PcdsDynamicHii]
  [PcdsDynamicExHii]

The PCD statement mode is useful when combined with a !include
statement in a DSC file.  BinToPcd.py can be used to convert a
binary file to a PCD statement in an output file, and that output
file can be included into a DSC file in the matching PCD section
to set the value of the PCD to the value from the binary file
without having to copy the value into the DSC file.  Updates can be
made to the included file without editing the DSC file.  Some
example use cases are the setting the public key PCDs such as:

  gEfiSecurityPkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdRsa2048Sha256PublicKeyBuffer
  gEfiSecurityPkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdPkcs7CertBuffer

The following example converts a public key binary file to a
[PcdsFixedAtBuild] compatible PCD statement:

  BinToPcd.py -i PublicKey.bin -o PublicKey.pcd
    --pcd gEfiSecurityPkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdPkcs7CertBufferkenSpaceGuid

The PublicKey.pcd output file contains a single line:

  gEfiSecurityPkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdPkcs7CertBuffer|{0x48, ...}

A DSC file can be updated to include the PublicKey.pcd file:

  [PcdsFixedAtBuild]
  !include PublicKey.pcd

Value examples
===============
  BinToPcd.py -i test.bin
    {0x68, 0x65, 0x6c, 0x6c, 0x6f, 0x20, 0x0d, 0x0a}

Normal examples:
=================
  BinToPcd.py -i test.bin -p Guid.Token
    Guid.Token|{0x68, 0x65, 0x6c, 0x6c, 0x6f, 0x20, 0x0d, 0x0a}

  BinToPcd.py -i test.bin -p Guid.Token -m 20
    Guid.Token|{0x68, 0x65, 0x6c, 0x6c, 0x6f, 0x20, 0x0d, 0x0a}|VOID*|20

VPD examples:
=============
  BinToPcd.py -i test.bin -p Guid.Token -t VPD
    Guid.Name|*|8|{0x48, 0x65, 0x6c, 0x6c, 0x6f, 0x20, 0x0d, 0x0a}

  BinToPcd.py -i test.bin -p Guid.Token -t VPD -f 20
    Guid.Name|20|8|{0x48, 0x65, 0x6c, 0x6c, 0x6f, 0x20, 0x0d, 0x0a}

  BinToPcd.py -i test.bin -p Guid.Token -t VPD -m 10
    Guid.Name|*|10|{0x48, 0x65, 0x6c, 0x6c, 0x6f, 0x20, 0x0d, 0x0a}

  BinToPcd.py -i test.bin -p Guid.Token -t VPD -f 20 -m 10
    Guid.Name|20|10|{0x48, 0x65, 0x6c, 0x6c, 0x6f, 0x20, 0x0d, 0x0a}

HII examples:
=============
  BinToPcd.py -i test.bin -p Guid.Token -t HII -g VarGuid -n VarName
    Guid.Name|L"VarName"|VarGuid|0|{0x48, 0x65, 0x6c, 0x6c}

  BinToPcd.py -i test.bin -p Guid.Token -t HII -g VarGuid -n VarName -f 8
    Guid.Name|L"VarName"|VarGuid|8|{0x48, 0x65, 0x6c, 0x6c}
