About This Repo

Mu Tiano Platform is a public repository of Project Mu based firmware that targets the open-source QEMU processor emulator.

This repository provides readily available, free, and feature rich platforms that serve as an example for feature enablement and validation, demonstrating how a single firmware codebase can be shared across multiple products and architectures, promoting serviceable, maintainable, up-to-date and secure firmware.

A goal of this repository is to reduce the overhead of testing and evaluating common functionality before deployment to physical hardware.

Current Platforms Supported

Getting Started

Individual platforms are maintained in the Platforms directory. Each platform directory has a readme file and a Docs folders with more detailed platform-specific information.

Build Instructions

  1. If you are new to the "stuart" build system in general refer to the following for a general overview How to Build in edk2 with Stuart.
  2. For instructions specific to this repo refer to building QemuQ35Pkg.

You can then apply that knowledge to build the platform you're interested in with the PlatformBuild.py files located in the platform directory.

Releases

It is recommended to consume binaries built from the code in this repo (outside of development purposes) through a release.

Releases are tagged in the repository and are available for download from the Releases page. Each release contains release notes describing the changes since the last release that highlight important changes such as breaking changes.

A semantic versioning process (version is <major.minor.patch>) is followed with the following rules:

  • Major Version
    • A major version change indicates a breaking change. This means that the release is not backward compatible with the previous release. This is typically a change to the API or ABI of a component.
  • Minor Version
    • A minor version change indicates a new feature or enhancement. This means that the release is backward compatible with the previous release but includes new functionality or a major rework of existing functionality.
  • Patch Version
    • A patch version change indicates a bug fix or any other change. This means that the release is backward compatible with the previous release and contains no new functionality.

Every release includes DEBUG and RELEASE binaries for all supported platforms. DEBUG is recommended to debug a release and RELEASE used for non-debug scenarios. If you file a bug and a "debug log" is requested, that needs to be produced from the DEBUG build of the release.

Every release is published as both a NuGet package and a zip file. Both formats contain the exact same content and both can be manually downloaded or used in an automated build environment.

NuGet packages are published in the Mu Tiano Platforms GitHub NuGet Feed and zip files are attached as "assets" to the release on GitHub.

  • Zip File Usage Example: Scroll to the bottom of the v1.0.0 release page and you will see an "Assets" section that contains the zip files for that release. You can manually download the appropriate zip file there.
  • NuGet Package Usage Example: A tool like dependabot can easily hook into the NuGet feed to automatically download releases into a project based on the semantic versioning rules described above.

Outside of topics that should be filed as an issue, please feel free to ask questions about the project in general or a particular release in the Discussions area.

Feature Branches

  1. Create a branch for involved feature development on your fork of the repository.
  2. When the feature is ready, submit a pull request.

You can choose to squash all commits into one feature commit into mu_tiano_platforms/main or prepare a series of commits exactly as you would like them to appear and the pull request will be rebased on top of the mu_tiano_platforms/main branch.

A template for Branch_ReadMe.md can be found in docs/BranchReadMe_template.md

Features must be "on by default" in all applicable platforms to avoid build switch complexity that leads to stale feature coverage.

Repository Origin

QemuQ35Pkg in this repository was originally derived from OvmfPkg in TianoCore. The package is considered stable so regular syncing is not performed with the upstream package. Select changes are cherry-picked based on functional or security importance. Additional cherry picks are welcome if they are necessary for you to be productive with the platform in this repository.

⚠️ Security Warning

This repository and all code within it is not part of an officially supported customer facing product and therefore long term servicing is not supported. All code in this repository is provided as-is and is not intended to be used in a production system and may not be suitable in a production system.
