When a module M depends on L1, which depends on L2,
which depends on L3, the build fails when the library instance
of L3 cannot be found according to the library class-instance
mapping configuration specified in the DSC file.
When such failure happens, the build tool only prints that the
instance of L3 required by module M cannot be found. But it
does not tell how L3 is required by M.
The change enhances build tool to print the entire dependency
chain when such failure happens.
With the change, the new error message will be as follows:
<dsc-path>(...): error 4000: Instance of library class [L3] is not
found for module [M], [L3] is:
consumed by <instance of L2>
consumed by <instance of L1>

When collecting the required library instances for modules and
libraries, included libraries will be recursed to ensure the module is
built with all the libraries directly linked to it and indirectly
linked to it via included libraries.
Using the following scenario as an example:
[LibraryClasses.common.DXE_CORE]
NULL|Path/To/Library1.inf // Includes DebugLib
[LibraryClasses.common.DXE_DRIVER]
NULL|Path/To/Library2.inf // Includes DebugLib
[LibraryClasses.common.DXE_CORE, LibraryClasses.common.DXE_DRIVER]
DebugLib|MdePkg/Library/BaseDebugLibSerialPort/BaseDebugLibSerialPort.inf
[Components]
MdeModulePkg/Core/Dxe/DxeMain.inf // Includes DebugLib
The DXE_CORE NULL library will be assigned a fake library class like
NULL1 and the DXE_DRIVER will be assigned NULL2. The recursion logic
will see NULL1 as a directly linked and will add an instance of it to
the list of libraries which need to be included in the module. When
DebugLib is evaluated, the recursion logic will add the libraries
DebugLib depends on to the queue which includes both NULL1 and NULL2.
When NULL2 is unqueued, an instance of it will also be added to the
list of libraries needed to build DxeMain which now means that both
NULL1 and NULL2 have been linked.
NULL includes outside of module overrides are not supported according
to the spec, but we do it anyways so this seems like a case which
should be fixed. This change updates the recursion logic to skip
evaluating NULL libraries unless they are linked directly to the
module/library being evaluated.

When a module "Module" depends on a library instance "Lib1" which
depends on "Lib2" which depends on "Lib3" ... depends on "LibN",
but "LibN" doesn't support the type (e.g.: SEC) of the "Module", the
following error messages are printed by build tool:
<DSC path>(...): error 1001: Module by library instance [<LibN path>]
consumed by [<Module path>]
But it's unclear to user how LibN is consumed by the Module.
With the patch, following errors are printed:
<DSC path>(...): error 1001: Module by library instance [<LibN path>]
consumed by library instance [<Lib N-1 path>] which is
consumed by module[<Module path>]
It doesn't print all the intermediate library instances between the
Module and LibN but at least the path of Lib N-1 can help users
to help how to fix the build errors.
I hope this patch can be a trigger point that a better solution could
be developed by tool experts to print all the library instances
between the Module and LibN.

This is a bugfix of
bf9230a9f3.
1.In the current code, gPlatformFinalPcd will save all PCDs used at
whole compile process, which wastes runtime memory and is unnecessary.
This patch makes gPlatformFinalPcd save only the PCDes which are
assigned in the DSC file, and the PCD that has not been assigned will
use the default value in DEC.
2.During the compilation process, gPlatformFinalPcd may be lost, and
the current code cannot selectively assign PCD in DSC by specifying ARCH.
This patch moves gPlatformFinalPcd into datapipe and modifies the
assignment logicto fix this.

value in the expression is from INF or DEC.
When a FeatureFlagExpression is present,if the expression evaluates
to TRUE,then the entry is valid. If the expression evaluates to FALSE,
then the EDK II build tools must ignore the entry.
This patch is going to add this feature.

Currently a PCD (e.g. FeaturePCD) cannot be used in a conditional
statement in a DSC/FDF file without a module in the build referencing
the PCD package DEC file.
An example implementation that to support this is to allow a [Packages]
section in the DSC file to list additional package dependencies for PCD
references in the package DSC/FDF files.
this patch is going to add the ability to have the [packages] section
defined in the DSC file

1. Separate the AutoGen.py into 3 small py files.
One is for AutoGen base class, one is for WorkspaceAutoGen class
and PlatformAutoGen class, and the one for ModuleAutoGen class.
2. Create a new class DataPipe to store the Platform scope settings.
Create a new class PlatformInfo to provide the same interface
as PlatformAutoGen. PlatformInfo class is initialized by
DataPipe instance.
Create a new class WorkspaceInfo to provide the same interface
as WorkspaceAutoGen. WorkspaceInfo class is initialized by
DataPipe instance.
3. Change ModuleAutoGen to depends on DataPipe, PlatformInfo and
WorkspaceInfo. Remove the dependency of ModuleAutoGen to PlatformAutoGen.

This reverts commit 838bc257ba.
After further evaluation, there are the unclear behavior in for the
driver combination feature. To not impact Q1 stable tag, remove it first.
1. If the drivers to be combined have the different PCD or library instance
setting, build should not combine them and report build break. But this
commit doesn't consider this case.
2. When start the sub driver fail, continue to start other sub driver. This
behavior is required to be clarifed in build spec.
3. Unload the sub driver when the combined driver start fail. This case need
to call the sub driver unload function for the driver start fail only.

To save the image size without the compression, more than

one drivers are combined, their depex will be AND together.
Below is the example to combine BootManagerPolicyDxe into
DriverHealthManagerDxe.
Besides this patch, BaseTools also needs to check the module
type and make sure all module type are same. Otherwise,
BaseTools will report the error.

This patch is one of build tool performance improvement
series patches.
This patch is going to use join function instead of
string += string2 statement.
Current code use string += string2 in a loop to combine
a string. while creating a string list in a loop and using
"".join(stringlist) after the loop will be much faster.
