[202405] ImageValidation.py: Don't parse entire image @Javagedes (#1127)
Change Details
## Description
This commit modifies the PE parsing functionality to only parse the headers of the image, rather than the entire image. This change is made to improve performance and also the probability of failing to parse the entire image. This comes after this commit (erocarrera/pefile#365) in pefile resulted in efi image parsing failures, breaking the build.

This commit also wraps the parsing of the image in a try-except block to catch any exceptions that may be raised during parsing, to cleanly exit.

See: microsoft/mu_tiano_platforms#1025 and erocarrera/pefile#421

[202405] ImageValidation: Determine profile from inf MODULE\_TYPE @Javagedes (#1124)
Change Details
## Description
In previous iterations, the profile was determined by parsing the makefile, looking for MODULE_TYPE. As each OS / tool chain may use a different makefile type, this was not a reliable method. This updates the plugin to read the INF for the compiled efi file to determine the MODULE_TYPE and thus the profile.

Update BaseCryptLib tests to reference the PCDs before running @kenlautner (#1034)
Change Details
## Description
The BaseCryptLibUnitTestApp tests the linked BaseCryptLib instance's crypto to make sure all functions are performing as expected. With the move to the Crypto binary and the BaseCryptLibOnProtocol instances we disable certain crypto functionality on purpose which causes the test to fail (and also the BaseCryptLibOnProtocol lib to assert). The changes made here use the already existing crypto PCDs to check if the tested cryptography is enabled with the current Crypto binary and if not to skip the test. This will allow the test to show if the enabled crypto is working correctly instead of failing for crypto we don't care about.

How This Was Tested

Tested on Qemu and intel physical platforms with various crypto binary layouts. The relevant tests pass and disabled crypto skips their tests. Furthermore when the PCDs are configured to run tests for crypto we don't support with the selected crypto binary, the test fails as expected.

Integration Instructions

N/A. Using the crypto binaries should automatically configure the correct PCDs and BaseCryptLib library for the test to work correctly.

MdeModulePkg: Compatibility Mode: Only Remap System Memory Regions @os-d (#1030)
Change Details
## Description
When we enter memory protections compatibility mode, we attempt to disable null protection and remap 0 - 0xA0000 as RWX. This was done for x86 systems with broken shim/grubs on Linux that would attempt to use those regions. This resolved that issue and we could boot non-memory protection safe Linux images on x86 HW. However, this approach did not take into account systems that do not have that range marked as system memory, for example ARM64 systems do not have this requirement. As such, this would inappropriately map these regions as RWX when they were not system memory.

This patch updates the remapping to only remap and disable null protection if these ranges are marked as system memory, otherwise it will leave them alone.

How This Was Tested

Tested on an ARM64 platform that does not have 0 - 0xA0000 as system memory, as well as an X86 system that does have that range as system memory, booting a Linux image on both that forces us to enter compatibility mode.

[CHERRY-PICK] UefiCpuPkg:fix issue when splitting paging entry @kenlautner (#909)
Change Details
## Description
This patch is to fix issue when splitting leaf paging entry in CpuPageTableLib code.

In previous code, before we assign the new child paging structure address to the content of splitted paging entry, PageTableLibSetPnle() is called to make sure the bit7 is set to 0, which indicate the previous leaf entry is changed to non-leaf entry now. There is a gap between we change the bit7 and we assign the new child paging structure address to the content of the splitted paging entry. If the address of code execution or data access happens to be in the range covered by the splitted paging entry, this gap may cause issue.

In this patch, we prepare the new paging entry content value in a local variable and assign the value to the splitted paging entry at once. The volatile keyword is used to ensure that no optimization will occur in compilation.

🐛 Bug Fixes

[CHERRY-PICK] [Release/202311] UnitTestFrameworkPkg: Fix Google Test components with multiple files @Flickdm (#891)
Change Details
# Preface
REF: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4610

Google Test hides test registration in global constructors on global objects. Global constructors are traditionally implemented by placing references to the global constructor's symbol in special sections (traditionally named .ctors or .init_array). These sections are not explicitly referenced by the linker, and libc only looks at special start and end symbols (and calls them).

This works fine if you're linking a program manually using
```
gcc a.o b.o c.o -o test_suite
```
but fails miserably when using static libraries (such as what EDK2 does), because traditional static archive symbol resolution rules don't allow for obj...

[REVERT] [CHERRY-PICK] Reverts previous commit to update to 2023.2.16, moves to 2023.2.15, corrects extdep, removes duplicate files @Flickdm (#913)
Change Details
## Description
An incorrect assumption was made that the INF's need to be removed from the CryptoPkgDriver because the MU_BASECORE already had duplicate entries and this aligned with previous releases (Now unlisted 2023.2.16). This goes back to the working release (2023.2.15) and updates the extdep accordingly. Further additional (potentially breaking) changes were required to be made to get the crypto package working.

[CHERRY-PICK] Add RNG PPI Support [Rebase \& FF] @makubacki (#888)
Change Details
## Description
MdePkg: Add Random Number Generator (RNG) PPI

Adds a new PPI that serves the same purpose as EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL in
DXE. This PPI can be produced by a PEIM to provide a dynamic interface
to RNG services in PEI.

This PPI is called EFI_RNG_PPI because it shares the exact same
interface with EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL which is described in the UEFI
Speficiation.

MdePkg: Add PeiRngLib

Adds a new PEI library instance for RngLib that uses the RNG services
provided by the RNG PPI.

This library instance will add a DEPEX on gEfiRngPpiGuid on modules
it links against. It can be used to allow PEIMs to get RNG support
over a dynamic interface.

(cherry picked from mu_basecore/release/202311)
- Impacts functionality?
- Impacts security?
- Breaking change?
- Includes tests?
- Includes documentation?
How This Was Tested
- MdePkg CI
- Verify the RNG PPI can be successfully produced and consumed
Integration Instructions

If a platform needs to share RNG support across a dynamic interface
between PEIMs, the RNG PPI can be used. PeiRngLib provides a RngLib
instance that use the RNG PPI. It will include a dependency on gEfiRngPpiGuid.

🐛 Bug Fixes

[CHERRY-PICK] Set EFI\_MEMORY\_SP as System Memory @makubacki (#920)
Change Details
## Description
Cherry picks 9051d2e from release/202311.

When supplying DxeCore with a resource descriptor HOB, a platform can choose which memory type to specify. For EFI_MEMORY_SP resource descriptor HOBs, instead of blindly setting GcdReserved as the memory type, respect what the resource descriptor HOB specified. Closes #884.

[CHERRY-PICK] [Release/202302] UnitTestFrameworkPkg: Fix Google Test components with multiple files @Flickdm (#893)
Change Details
# Preface REF: https://github.com//pull/891 - Dropping GOOGLETEST_HOST_UNIT_BUILD option as release/202302 does not have any expectation to support it.
REF: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4610

Google Test hides test registration in global constructors on global objects. Global constructors are traditionally implemented by placing references to the global constructor's symbol in special sections (traditionally named .ctors or .init_array). These sections are not explicitly referenced by the linker, and libc only looks at special start and end symbols (and calls them).

This works fine if you're linking a program manually using
```
gcc a.o b.o c.o -o test_suite
```
but fails miserably when using static libraries (such as what EDK2 does), because traditional static archive symbol resolution rules don't allow for object files to be pulled in to the link if there isn't an undefined symbol reference to that .o elsewhere.

Fix it by passing --whole-archive (GCC) and /WHOLEARCHIVE (MSVC). These options force the linker to pull in the entire s...
