+# Note: The EDK II DSC file is not used to specify how compiled binary images get placed
+# into firmware volume images. This section is just a list of modules to compile from
+# source into UEFI-compliant binaries.
+# It is the FDF file that contains information on combining binary files into firmware
+# volume images, whose concept is beyond UEFI and is described in PI specification.
+# Binary modules do not need to be listed in this section, as they should be
+# specified in the FDF file. For example: Shell binary (Shell_Full.efi), FAT binary (Fat.efi),
+# Logo (Logo.bmp), and etc.
+# There may also be modules listed in this section that are not required in the FDF file,
+# When a module listed here is excluded from FDF file, then UEFI-compliant binary will be
+# generated for it, but the binary will not be put into any firmware volume.
