IntelFrameworkModulePkg: AcpiS3SaveDxe: prepare for End-of-Dxe callback
We are preparing for detaching the S3Ready() functionality from the
EFI_ACPI_S3_SAVE_PROTOCOL.S3Save() protocol member function. Instead, we
will hook the same logic to the End-of-Dxe event group.
The EFI_ACPI_S3_SAVE_PROTOCOL has another member: GetLegacyMemorySize().
According to the documenation,
This function returns the size of the legacy memory (meaning below 1 MB)
that is required during an S3 resume. Before the Framework-based
firmware transfers control to the OS, it has to transition from flat
mode into real mode in case the OS supplies only a real-mode waking
vector. This transition requires a certain amount of legacy memory.
After getting the size of legacy memory below, the caller is responsible
for allocating the legacy memory below 1 MB according to the size that
is returned. The specific implementation of allocating the legacy memory
is out of the scope of this specification.
When EFI_ACPI_S3_SAVE_PROTOCOL.S3Save() is called, the address of the
legacy memory allocated above must be passed to it, in the
LegacyMemoryAddress parameter.
In practice however:
- The S3Ready() function ignores the LegacyMemoryAddress completely.
- No code in the edk2 tree calls
EFI_ACPI_S3_SAVE_PROTOCOL.GetLegacyMemorySize(), ever.
- All callers of EFI_ACPI_S3_SAVE_PROTOCOL.S3Save() in the edk2 tree pass
a NULL LegacyMemoryAddress:
BdsLibBootViaBootOption()
[IntelFrameworkModulePkg/Library/GenericBdsLib/BdsBoot.c]
OnReadyToBoot()
[Vlv2TbltDevicePkg/AcpiPlatform/AcpiPlatform.c]
InstallReadyToLock()
[Vlv2TbltDevicePkg/Library/PlatformBdsLib/BdsPlatform.c]
BdsLibBootViaBootOption()
[Vlv2TbltDevicePkg/Override/IntelFrameworkModulePkg/Library/GenericBdsLib/BdsBoot.c]
For this reason, ASSERT() explicitly that LegacyGetS3MemorySize() is never
called, and that the LegacyMemoryAddress parameter is always NULL.
This fact is important to capture in the code, because in the End-of-Dxe
callback, no LegacyMemoryAddress parameter can be taken. So let's make it
clear that we actually don't even have any use for that parameter.
