Detailed Description

Provides services to print debug and assert messages to a debug output device.

The Debug library supports debug print and asserts based on a combination of macros and code. The debug library can be turned on and off so that the debug code does not increase the size of an image.

Note that a reserved macro named MDEPKG_NDEBUG is introduced for the intention of size reduction when compiler optimization is disabled. If MDEPKG_NDEBUG is defined, then debug and assert related macros wrapped by it are the NULL implementations.

◆ ASSERT

#define ASSERT ( Expression )

Value:

    do {                            \
      if (DebugAssertEnabled ()) {  \
        if (!(Expression)) {        \

    } while (FALSE)

Macro that calls DebugAssert() if a protocol is already installed in the handle database.

If MDEPKG_NDEBUG is defined or the DEBUG_PROPERTY_DEBUG_ASSERT_ENABLED bit of PcdDebugProperyMask is clear, then return.

If Handle is NULL, then a check is made to see if the protocol specified by Guid is present on any handle in the handle database. If Handle is not NULL, then a check is made to see if the protocol specified by Guid is present on the handle specified by Handle. If the check finds the protocol, then DebugAssert() is called passing in the source filename, source line number, and Guid.

If Guid is NULL, then ASSERT().

Parameters

Handle	The handle to check for the protocol. This is an optional parameter that may be NULL. If it is NULL, then the entire handle database is searched.
Guid	The pointer to a protocol GUID.

    } while (FALSE)

Macro that calls DebugAssert() if a RETURN_STATUS evaluates to an error code.

If MDEPKG_NDEBUG is not defined and the DEBUG_PROPERTY_DEBUG_ASSERT_ENABLED bit of PcdDebugProperyMask is set, then this macro evaluates the RETURN_STATUS value specified by StatusParameter. If StatusParameter is an error code, then DebugAssert() is called passing in the source filename, source line number, and StatusParameter.

Parameters

StatusParameter RETURN_STATUS value to evaluate.

Definition at line 471 of file DebugLib.h.

◆ CR

#define CR	(	Record,
		TYPE,
		Field,
		TestSignature
	)

Value:

    (DebugAssertEnabled () && (BASE_CR (Record, TYPE, Field)->Signature != TestSignature)) ?  \
    (TYPE *) (_ASSERT (CR has Bad Signature), Record) :                                       \
    BASE_CR (Record, TYPE, Field)

Macro that calls DebugAssert() if the containing record does not have a matching signature. If the signatures matches, then a pointer to the data structure that contains a specified field of that data structure is returned. This is a lightweight method hide information by placing a public data structure inside a larger private data structure and using a pointer to the public data structure to retrieve a pointer to the private data structure.

If MDEPKG_NDEBUG is defined or the DEBUG_PROPERTY_DEBUG_ASSERT_ENABLED bit of PcdDebugProperyMask is clear, then this macro computes the offset, in bytes, of the field specified by Field from the beginning of the data structure specified by TYPE. This offset is subtracted from Record, and is used to return a pointer to a data structure of the type specified by TYPE.

If MDEPKG_NDEBUG is not defined and the DEBUG_PROPERTY_DEBUG_ASSERT_ENABLED bit of PcdDebugProperyMask is set, then this macro computes the offset, in bytes, of field specified by Field from the beginning of the data structure specified by TYPE. This offset is subtracted from Record, and is used to compute a pointer to a data structure of the type specified by TYPE. The Signature field of the data structure specified by TYPE is compared to TestSignature. If the signatures match, then a pointer to the pointer to a data structure of the type specified by TYPE is returned. If the signatures do not match, then DebugAssert() is called with a description of "CR has a bad signature" and Record is returned.

If the data type specified by TYPE does not contain the field specified by Field, then the module will not compile.

If TYPE does not contain a field called Signature, then the module will not compile.

Parameters

Record	The pointer to the field specified by Field within a data structure of type TYPE.
TYPE	The name of the data structure type to return This data structure must contain the field specified by Field.
Field	The name of the field in the data structure specified by TYPE to which Record points.
TestSignature	The 32-bit signature value to match.

◆ DEBUG

#define DEBUG ( Expression )

Value:

    do {                           \
      if (DebugPrintEnabled ()) {  \
        _DEBUG (Expression);       \
      }                            \
    } while (FALSE)

Macro that calls DebugPrint().

If MDEPKG_NDEBUG is not defined and the DEBUG_PROPERTY_DEBUG_PRINT_ENABLED bit of PcdDebugProperyMask is set, then this macro passes Expression to DebugPrint().

Parameters

If the DEBUG_PROPERTY_CLEAR_MEMORY_ENABLED bit of PcdDebugProperyMask is set, then this macro calls DebugClearMemory() passing in Address and Length.

Parameters

Length	The number of bytes in the buffer to set.

Definition at line 573 of file DebugLib.h.

◆ DEBUG_CODE

#define DEBUG_CODE ( Expression )

  DEBUG_CODE_BEGIN ();          \
  Expression                    \
  DEBUG_CODE_END ()

The macro that declares a section of debug source code.

If the DEBUG_PROPERTY_DEBUG_CODE_ENABLED bit of PcdDebugProperyMask is set, then the source code specified by Expression is included in a module. Otherwise, the source specified by Expression is not included in a module.

Definition at line 558 of file DebugLib.h.

◆ DEBUG_CODE_BEGIN

#define DEBUG_CODE_BEGIN ( ) do { if (DebugCodeEnabled ()) { UINT8 __DebugCodeLocal

Macro that marks the beginning of debug source code.

If the DEBUG_PROPERTY_DEBUG_CODE_ENABLED bit of PcdDebugProperyMask is set, then this macro marks the beginning of source code that is included in a module. Otherwise, the source lines between DEBUG_CODE_BEGIN() and DEBUG_CODE_END() are not included in a module.

◆ DEBUG_EVENT

#define DEBUG_EVENT 0x00080000

Definition at line 46 of file DebugLib.h.

◆ DEBUG_EXPRESSION_STRING

#define DEBUG_EXPRESSION_STRING ( Expression ) #Expression

Macro that converts a Boolean expression to a Null-terminated ASCII string.

The default is to use the C pre-processor stringizing operator '#' to add quotes around the C expression. If DEBUG_EXPRESSION_STRING_VALUE is defined then the C expression is converted to the fixed string value.

Defining DEBUG_EXPRESSION_STRING_VALUE to a fixed value is useful when comparing builds across source code formatting changes that may make changes to spaces or parenthesis in a Boolean expression.

Parameters

Expression Boolean expression.

◆ DebugAssert()

VOID EFIAPI DebugAssert	(	IN CONST CHAR8 *	FileName,
		IN UINTN	LineNumber,
		IN CONST CHAR8 *	Description
	)

Prints an assert message containing a filename, line number, and description. This may be followed by a breakpoint or a dead loop.

Print a message of the form "ASSERT <FileName>(<LineNumber>): <Description>\n" to the debug output device. If DEBUG_PROPERTY_ASSERT_BREAKPOINT_ENABLED bit of PcdDebugProperyMask is set then CpuBreakpoint() is called. Otherwise, if DEBUG_PROPERTY_ASSERT_DEADLOOP_ENABLED bit of PcdDebugProperyMask is set then CpuDeadLoop() is called. If neither of these bits are set, then this function returns immediately after the message is printed to the debug output device. DebugAssert() must actively prevent recursion. If DebugAssert() is called while processing another DebugAssert(), then DebugAssert() must return immediately.

If FileName is NULL, then a <FileName> string of "(NULL) Filename" is printed. If Description is NULL, then a string of "(NULL) Description" is printed.
