3.3 Platform DSC Definition
The DSC definitions set the final properties (including final PCD values) for building UEFI/PI compliant binaries. Only command-line values override values in this file.
Values in this file override any values set in INF or DEC files.
Binary modules do not need to be listed in this file unless they reference PatchableInModule or DynamicEx PCDs.
Note: Some PCD values may be obtained from the Flash Description (FDF) file
specified in the [Defines] section or SET statements.
The [Defines] section must appear before any other sections (except the
header comment blocks). The remaining sections may appear in any order, however
the EBNF, below, shows the recommended order.
Summary
The EDK II Platform Description (DSC) file has the following format (using the EBNF).
<EDK_II_DSC> ::= [<Header>]
<Defines>
[<SkuIds>]
<LibraryClasses>*
<Pcds>*
<Components>+
<BuildOptions>*
<UserExtensions>*
Note: Assignments set as command-line arguments to the parsing tools take precedence over all assignments defined in the DSC file. If a variable/value assignment is specified on the build tool's command-line, that value will override any variable/value assignment defined in the DSC file.
Note: Conditional statements may be used anywhere within the DSC file, with the ability to group any item within a section as well as entire sections.

Note: When using CString, UnicodeString or byte array format as UINT8/UINT16/UINT32/UINT64 values, please make sure they fit in the target type's size, otherwise tool would report failure.
Note: LABEL() macro in byte arrays to tag the byte offset of a location in a byte array. OFFSET_OF() macro in byte arrays that returns the byte offset of a LABEL() declared in a byte array.
Note: When using the characters "|" or "||" in an expression, the expression must be encapsulated in open "(" and close ")" parenthesis.
Note: Comments may appear anywhere within a DSC file, provided they follow the rules that a comment may not be enclosed within Section headers, and that in line comments must appear at the end of a statement.
Parameters
Expression
There is also a membership expression, using the non-C "in" operator, which allows for testing if an item is present in a list. The usage of this membership expression is restricted to testing architectures, targets and tool chain tag names that are being built. Refer to the EDK II Expression Syntax Specification for additional information.
UnicodeString
When the <UnicodeString> element (these characters are string literals as
defined by the C99 specification: L"string"/L'string', not actual Unicode
characters) is included in a value, the build tools may be required to expand
the ASCII string between the quotation marks into a valid UCS-2 character string.
The build tools parser must treat all content between the field separators
(excluding white space characters around the field separators) as ASCII literal
content when generating the AutoGen.c and AutoGen.h files.
Comments
Strings that appear in comments may be ignored by the build tools. An ASCII
string matching the format of the ASCII string defined by <UnicodeString>
(L"Foo" for example,) that appears in a comment must never be expanded by any
tool.
CFlags
CFlags refers to a string of valid arguments appended to the command line of any third party or provided tool. It is not limited to just a compiler executable tool. MACRO values that appear in quoted strings in CFlags content must not be expanded by parsing tools.
OA
Other Architecture - One or more user defined target architectures, such as ARM
or PPC. The architectures listed here must have a corresponding entry in the
EDK II meta-data file, Conf/tools_def.txt. Only IA32, X64, COMMON and
EBC are routinely validated.
FileSep
FileSep refers to either the back slash "\" or forward slash "/" characters that are used to separate directory names. All EDK II DSC files must use the "/" forward slash character when specifying the directory portion of a filename. Microsoft operating systems, that normally use a back slash character for separating directory names, will interpret the forward slash character correctly.
CArray
All C data arrays used in PCD value fields must be byte arrays. The C format
GUID style is a special case that is permitted in some fields that use the
<CArray> nomenclature.
CData
All C data used in PCD value CODE syntax can be C style value to initialize C structure or Array in C source code.
EOL
The DOS End Of Line: "0x0D 0x0A" character must be used for all EDK II meta-data files. All Nix based tools can properly process the DOS EOL characters. Microsoft based tools cannot process the Nix style EOL characters.
3.3.2 MACRO Statements
Use of MACRO statements is optional.
Summary
Macro statements are characterize by a DEFINE token or may be defined on a
command line of a parsing tool.
Define statements are processed according to the following precedence.
Highest Priority
Command-line option
-D MACRO=ValueMost recent in file
Macros defined in the DSC file's
[Defines]section
Lowest Priority
Macros defined in the [Defines] section are considered global during the
processing of the FDF file and the DSC file.
Macros are not allowed to redefine the reserved words specified in this file.
For example, it is not permitted to DEFINE DEFINE = FOOBAR, then use FOOBAR
as a the reserved word.
A macro that is not defined has a value of 0.
If the Macro statement is within the [Defines] section, then the Macro is
common to the entire file as well as common to the FDF file, with later
definitions overriding previous values (if the same MACRO name is used in
subsequent sections, then the MACRO value overrides all remaining instances
that following the definition.)
Macro statements referenced before they are defined are "undefined" (for the
!ifndef and !ifdef conditional directive statements).
If the tools encounter a macroval used in a directive, an expression or a value
field, as in $(MACRO), that is not defined, the macro will have a value of 0
and, as in C programming, the build may break.
While it is recommended that tools catch exceptions for incorrect content, they
may report the error on the line that uses the macro, $(MACRO), rather than
where the macro was defined.
Prototype
<MacroDefinition> ::= {<NormalMacro>}
<NormalMacro> ::= <TS> "DEFINE" <MTS> <MACRO> <Eq> [<Value>] <EOL>
<Value> ::= {<Number>} {<BoolType>} {<GUID>}
{<CString>} {<UnicodeString>} {<CArray>}
{<PATH>} {<Expression>} {<CFlags>}
{<RelativePath>} {<Filename>}
Restrictions
System Environment Variables
System environment variable may not be re-defined in this file. System environment variables cannot be overridden by the build system tools.
Token and Statements
It is not permissible to use $(MACRO) to replace a token or a complete token
statement. Tokens are the keywords defined in this specification.
Values
The macro's value must not include any <EOL> character sequences. (Using \r
and \n within a quoted string is permitted.
Parameters
Expression
Refer to the EDK II Expression Syntax Specification for additional information.
Note: MACRO values defined in the [Defines] _section and PCD values
defined in this file may be used in the Flash FDF file.
Examples:
DEFINE GEN_SKU = MyPlatformPkg/GenPei
DEFINE SKU1 = MyPlatformPkg/Sku1/Pei
DEFINE HACK = DEBUG
3.3.3 Conditional Directive Blocks
Use of conditional directive blocks is optional.
Summary
The conditional statements may appear anywhere within the file. Conditional directive blocks can be nested.
All conditional directives can use MACRO, FixedAtBuild or FeatureFlag PCD values, which must evaluate to either "True" or "False".
Directives must be the only statement on a line.
String evaluations are permitted, and are case sensitive; the two string values must be an exact match to evaluate to "True".
The expression immediately following the "!if" statement controls whether the content after the line is processed or not.
TRUEis any non-zero and/or non-null value other than zero.Each "!if" within the source code must be matched with a closing "!endif".
Zero or more "!elseif" statements are permitted; only one "!else" statement is permitted.
Conditional directive blocks may be nested.
Keyword
!ifdef, !ifndef, !if, !elseif, !else, !endifare case-insensitive.Directives can be used to encapsulate entire sections or elements within a single section, such that they do not break the integrity of the section definitions.
Directives are in-fix expressions that are evaluated left to right; content within parenthesis is evaluated before the outer statements are evaluated. Use of parenthesis is recommended to remove ambiguity.
The values of the FixedAtBuild and FeatureFlag PCDs used in the conditional statements must be set in the
[PcdsFixedAtBuild]or[PcdsFeatureFlag]section(s) of this DSC file. Other forms of PCDs cannot be used in conditional directive statements.Default PCD values from the DEC files cannot be used in conditional directives within the DSC file; all PCD values used in directive statements must be defined in the DSC file.
Conditional directives may appear before a Macro, FixedAtBuild or FeatureFlag PCD has been defined. Therefore, the reference build tools must perform two passes on this file:
Obtain the values of the MACROs, FixedAtBuild and FeatureFlag PCDs which are used for the conditional directives (these values must not be located within a conditional directive).
Evaluate the conditional statements for inclusion in the build.
If the value of a FixedAtBuild or FeatureFlag PCD used in a conditional directive cannot be determined during the first pass, the build must break. It is permissible to have a Macro that is undefined after the first pass. Macros must be defined before they can be used in an expression. Macros, FixedAtBuild and FeatureFlag PCDs used in conditional statements in the first pass must not be located within conditional directives.
The build system must break if a PCD in the directive is listed in
[PcdsPatchableInModule], [PcdsDynamic] or [PcdsDynamicEx] section.
Note: PCDs, used in conditional directives, must be defined and the value set in either the FDF or DSC file in order to be used in a conditional statement; values from INF or DEC files are not permitted.

Restrictions
MACRO and PCD Values
When a MACRO is used in conditional directives !if or !elseif, the
<MACROVAL> - $(MACRO) - format is used. When a PCD is used in a conditional
directive (or in an expression) just the PcdName format is used.
Number values
For Numeric expressions, numbers must not be encapsulated by double quotation marks
Strings
Strings in PCD elements must be NULL terminated. The NULL character is not
part of the string that is tested. All other string comparisons do not include
the double quotation marks encapsulating the string. If the string is
"myapple", the only characters that would be tested are myapple. When using
strings in the expression statements, there must be a comparison operator.
Parameters
ValidStatements
Any valid section, multiple sections, section statement or set of section statements defined in this specification may be within the scope of the conditional statements.
MACRO Usage in Expression Statements
A macro is said to be defined if and only if it has been set to a non-NULL
value. When used in the !ifdef and !ifndef statement, the <MACROVAL>
format is being deprecated.
PcdFeatureFlag
The FeatureFlag PCD is a boolean PCD that is set to either True (1) or
False (0). The PCD datum type for a Feature PCD is always BOOLEAN. It may
be used in a logical expression.
FixedPcdName
A FixedAtBuild PCD will have a set value at build time, and the value cannot be
modified in the binary image, nor modified at runtime. For directives, the PCD
datum type is limited to UINT8, UINT16, UINT32, UINT64, UINTN and
BOOLEAN. Using a FixedAtBuild PCD that has a datum type of VOID* is limited
to text-based comparisons in directives. Using a PCD that has a value of a byte
array is not permitted. FixedAtBuild PCDs may be used in a logical expression.
Numeric Expressions
This is a test of numbers, using relational or equality operators, that
evaluates to TRUE or FALSE
Logical Expressions
This is a test where the expression, MACRO value or PCD value (include
<MACROVAL> or <PCDVAL> used in an expression) must evaluate to either
TRUE (1) or FALSE (0), no operators are required, however logical
operators, as well full expressions can be used. (expressions that do not
evaluate to TRUE or FALSE must break the build).
String Expressions
The strings must be exactly identical in order to match. Literal strings must be encapsulated by double quotation marks. There must be a comparison operator between two strings (using a string without an operator is not permitted). Also permitted are the membership expressions, for architectures, targets and tool chain tag names.
All Expressions
Refer to the EDK II Expression Syntax Specification for additional information.

3.3.4 !include Statements
Use of this statement is optional.
Summary
This section defines the !include statement in EDK II Platform (DSC) files.
This statement is used to include, at the statement's line, a file which is
processed at that point, as though the text of the included file was actually
in the DSC file. The included file's content must match the content of the
section that the !include statement resides, or it may contain completely new
sections. If the included file starts with a section header, then the section
being processed in the Platform DSC file is considered to have been terminated.
If the <Filename> contains "$" characters, then macros defined in the DSC
file and the system environment variable $(WORKSPACE) are substituted into <Filename>.
The tools look for <Filename> relative to the directory the DSC file resides.
If the file is not found, and a directory separator is in <Filename>, the
tools attempt to find the file in a WORKSPACE (or a directory listed in the
PACKAGES_PATH) relative path. If the file cannot be found, the build system
must exit with an appropriate error message.
Statements in the include file are permitted to override previous definitions as well as to define new entries.
The keyword !include is case-insensitive.
Prototype
<IncludeStatement> ::= <TS> "!include" <MTS> <Filename> <EOL>
Example (EDK II DSC)
!include MyPlatformPkg/feature_pcds.mak
!include MyFeatures.mak
!include $(WORKSPACE)/PackageDir/Features.dsc
!include $(MACRO1)/AnotherDir/$(MACRO2)/Features.dsc
Note: The extension used in the example, "mak", is just a three
character extension, and would not processed by make or nmake commands. It
might just as well have been "foo".
3.3.5 !error Statements
Use of this statement is optional.
Summary
This section defines the !error statement in EDK II Platform (DSC) files.
This statement is used to cause build tool to stop at the location where the
statement is encountered and error message following the !error statement
is output as a message.
The keyword !error is case-insensitive.
Prototype
<ErrorStatement> ::= <TS> "!error" <MTS> <ErrorMessage> <EOL>
<ErrorMessage> ::= <AsciiString>
Parameters
ErrorMessage
It should in the same line with !error statement, and it can consist of several
words not necessarily in quotes.
Example (EDK II DSC)
!error "unsupported feature!"
