Michael D Kinney 540fd45f75 MdePkg/Library/BaseLib: Add BaseLib instance for host based unit tests ... REF: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2800 Add a new version of BaseLib that is safe for use from host based unit test applications. Host based unit test applications may need to provide implementations of some BaseLib functions that provide simple emulation to exercise the code under test. The structure UNIT_TEST_HOST_BASE_LIB is filled in with services that provide default emulation for BaseLib APIs that would normally generate exceptions in a host based unit test application. This structure allows an individual unit test to replace the default emulation of a BaseLib service with an alternate version that is required by a specific unit test. A global variable of type UNIT_TEST_HOST_BASE_LIB is provided through the new UnitTestHostBaseLib library class. Normally cmocka would be used to mock services the code under test calls. However, the BaseLib is used by the Unit Test Framework itself, so using a mocked interface is not possible. The use of a structure to provide hooks for unit test is not expected to be a common feature. It should only be required for libraries that are used by both the Unit Test Framework and the code under test where the code under test requires a different behavior than the Unit Test Framework.
