\pard\keep\keepn\nowidctlpar\s2\li-1440\sb400\sa60\sl-340\slmult0\cf1\b\f0\fs28 Description\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\sb200\cf2\b0\fs18 GenFfs is used to generate FFS files for inclusion in a firmware volume. FFS file is the file system file for the firmware storage defined in the Volume 3 of the PI 1.0 specification. This utility is responsible for aggregating all of the file components into a single, correctly formed FFS file\par
\pard\keep\keepn\nowidctlpar\s2\li-1440\sb400\sa60\sl-340\slmult0\cf1\b\fs28 Options\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\sb200\cf2\fs18 -o FileName, --outputfile FileName\par

\pard\nowidctlpar\sb200\b -t Type, --filetype Type\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\li360\sb200\b0 Type is one FV file type defined in PI spec, which is one type of EFI_FV_FILETYPE_RAW, EFI_FV_FILETYPE_FREEFORM, EFI_FV_FILETYPE_SECURITY_CORE, EFI_FV_FILETYPE_PEIM, EFI_FV_FILETYPE_PEI_CORE, EFI_FV_FILETYPE_DXE_CORE, EFI_FV_FILETYPE_DRIVER, EFI_FV_FILETYPE_APPLICATION, EFI_FV_FILETYPE_COMBINED_PEIM_DRIVER, EFI_FV_FILETYPE_FIRMWARE_VOLUME_IMAGE. This option is required.\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\sb200\b -g FileGuid, --fileguid FileGuid\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\li360\sb200\b0 FileGuid is the unique identifier for this FFS file. Its format is 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000. This option is required.\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\sb200\b -x, --fixed\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\li360\sb200\b0 Set fixed attribute in FFS file header to indicate that the file may not be moved from its present location.\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\sb200\b -s, --checksum\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\li360\sb200\b0 Set checksum attribute in FFS file header to calculate the whole file checksum.\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\sb200\b -a FileAlign, --align FileAlign\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\li360\sb200\b0 FileAlign specifies FFS file alignment, which only support the following alignment: 8,16,128,512,1K,4K,32K,64K.\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\sb200\b -i SectionFile, --sectionfile SectionFile\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\li360\sb200\b0 Section file will be read into this FFS file. This option is required.\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\sb200\b -n SectionAlign, --sectionalign SectionAlign\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\li360\sb200\b0 SectionAlign specifies this section file alignment in the FFS file, which support the alignment scope 1~64K. It is specified together with sectionfile parameter. \par
\pard\nowidctlpar\sb200\b -v, --verbose\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\fi360\sb200\b0 Turn on verbose output with informational messages.\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\sb200\b --version\par

\pard\keep\keepn\nowidctlpar\s2\li-1440\sb400\sa60\sl-340\slmult0\cf1\b\fs28 Example\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\sb200\cf2\b0\fs18 1. Generate PeiCore FFS file with the input sections, fileguid, and the output file name.\par
\b GenFfs -t EFI_FV_FILETYPE_PEI_CORE -g 52C05B14-0B98-496c-BC3B-04B50211D680 -i PeiMain.pe32 -i PeiMain.ui -i PeiMain.ver -o 52C05B14-0B98-496c-BC3B-04B50211D680-PeiMain.ffs\par
\b0 2. Generate PeiCore FFS file with the fixed, checksum attributes, the input sections with 16 byte alignment, the fileguid, and the output file name.\par
\b GenFfs -t EFI_FV_FILETYPE_PEI_CORE -g 52C05B14-0B98-496c-BC3B-04B50211D680 \cf3\endash x \endash s\cf2 -i PeiMain.pe32 \cf3\endash n 16\cf2 -i PeiMain.ui -i PeiMain.ver -o 52C05B14-0B98-496c-BC3B-04B50211D680-PeiMain.ffs\par
\b0 3. Generate RAW type FFS file with the input raw files, checksum attribute, fileguid, and the output file name. The RAW type FFS file doesn\rquote t care whether the input files are the formed section files or not.\par
\b GenFfs \endash t EFI_FV_FILETYPE_RAW \endash g E8B33A4F-4C07-4e3f-A746-4A1E4036C5EC \endash s \endash i vendor.raw \endash o E8B33A4F-4C07-4e3f-A746-4A1E4036C5EC-vendor.raw\par
\b0 4. Generate FV type FFS file with the input FV section file, checksum attribute, fileguid, and the output filename.\par
\b GenFfs \endash t EFI_FV_FILETYPE_FIRMWARE_VOLUME_IMAGE \endash g 47C70572-CA18-455d-ABB9-B37FBA402AB2 \endash s \endash i fvmain.fvsec \endash o 47C70572-CA18-455d-ABB9-B37FBA402AB2-fvmain.ffs\par
