Leo,
The general design issue here is that a PCD and PCD macro were
added to a UefiCpuPkg include file Include/Register/SmramSaveStateMap.h.
This means any library or module that includes this package include
file will break the build until the PCD is added to the INF file for
that library or module.
The INF file for a module is supposed to express the PCDs that the
library or module sources access. We do not expect #include
statements from package include files to require adding additional
PCDs.
Updating the code for these values to be detected or configurable
is a good idea.
One option is to update the C code that currently uses the #define
names to use the PCD access function directly, instead of adding
the PcdGetxxx() to the Include/Register/SmramSaveStateMap.h file.
Jiewen's idea to remove the PCD and detect the offset from CPUID
also looks like a reasonable approach.
Thanks,
Mike
