Unix Simulation Platform
========================
UnixPkg is one of platform package which can be built to a platform's firmware from UnixPkg.dsc file.
And this package provide a simulation platform under *INUX environment in IA32 architecture.
- Same points between real platform and simulation platform:
1) Unix simulation platform also run with firmware device image built from UnixPkg
2) The working flow of simulation platform also contains SEC/PEI/DXE phase.
- Different points between real platform and simulation platform:
1) The SEC phase in simulation platform in fact is a *INUX native application which can be run from *INUX shell;
2) The device in simulation platform is not real hardware but simulation component in API level;
3) The ThunkBus driver in simulation platform will get virtual device's desription from PCD and create virtual Device
Build
=====
UnixPkg is built with following command:
build -p UnixPkg/UnixPkg.dsc -a IA32 -t ELFGCC
Notes: ELFGCC is defined in <Workspace>/Conf/tools_def.txt file. This tool chain use native gcc/binutil instead of
cross-compiler like UNIXGCC tool chain.
FAQ
===
1, I fail to build UnixPkg due to "X11/extensions/XShm.h: No such file or directory"?
The display adapter in UnixPkg is a virtual device written in X11 API. The library of x11proto-xext-dev is required
for building.
2, I fail to build UnixPkg due to "/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXext"?
libxext-dev library is required for building.
