13 Build Reports

This section introduces the build report generation tool functionality and its output report format. It describes the external behaviors of the tool, i.e. the accepted command line options and the detailed output report format.

Unless the quiet or silent options are given to the build command, the build system automatically reports the following in build log file:

  • Each region, offset and size defined in the FD.
  • The location of the GUID cross reference file.
  • The size of the data in each FV region.
  • The date and time the build completed.
