Current BaseTools follow previous PI spec to use UINT8 for SkuId, to follow PI1.4a, BaseTools need to be updated to fix artificial limitation of PCD SkuId range. This patch is to update BaseTools to use UINT64 for SkuId, since the PCD database structure needs to be naturally aligned, the PCD database structure layout is adjusted to keep the natural alignment and version is updated to 6. Note: As the PCD database structure layout is adjusted, the structure definition in MdeModulePkg/Include/Guid/PcdDataBaseSignatureGuid.h and PCD drivers also need to be updated. That means the source code and BaseTools need to be upgraded at the same time, and if they are not upgraded at the same time, build error like below will be triggered to help user identify the problem. "Please make sure the version of PCD PEIM Service and the generated PCD PEI Database match."

This directory contains the next generation of EDK II build tools and template files. Templates are located in the Conf directory, while the tools executables for Microsoft Windows 32-bit Operating Systems are located in the Bin\Win32 directory, other directory contatins tools source. 1. Build step to generate the binary tools. === Windows/Visual Studio Notes === To build the BaseTools, you should run the standard vsvars32.bat script from your preferred Visual Studio installation or you can run get_vsvars.bat to use latest automatically detected version. In addition to this, you should set the following environment variables: * EDK_TOOLS_PATH - Path to the BaseTools sub directory under the edk2 tree * BASE_TOOLS_PATH - The directory where the BaseTools source is located. (It is the same directory where this README.txt is located.) * PYTHON_FREEZER_PATH - Path to where the python freezer tool is installed After this, you can run the toolsetup.bat file, which is in the same directory as this file. It should setup the remainder of the environment, and build the tools if necessary. Please also refer to the 'BuildNotes.txt' file for more information on building under Windows. === Unix-like operating systems === To build on Unix-like operating systems, you only need to type 'make' in the base directory of the project. === Ubuntu Notes === On Ubuntu, the following command should install all the necessary build packages to build all the C BaseTools: sudo apt-get install build-essential uuid-dev === Python sqlite3 module === On Windows, the cx_freeze will not copy the sqlite3.dll to the frozen binary directory (the same directory as build.exe and GenFds.exe). Please copy it manually from <PythonHome>\DLLs. The Python distributed with most recent Linux will have sqlite3 module built in. If not, please install sqlit3 package separately. 26-OCT-2011
