Description Creates a new library, FlatPageTableLib, which works on X64 and AARCH64 platforms and converts the page table to a "flat" version. The flat version is a one-dimensional array where each entry is an address, a length, and attributes. The library will walk the page/translation table and combine blocks/leaves with the same attributes into a single entry in the flat array. The attributes mask for each architecture is defined in the header and includes both the upper and lower block/leaf attributes. On both X64 and AARCH64, the hierarchical inheritance of attributes is factored into the determination of block/leaf attributes. This allows the consumer of the library to easily check the attributes of any region in the page/translation table. - [x] Impacts functionality? - **Functionality** - Does the change ultimately impact how firmware functions? - Examples: Add a new library, publish a new PPI, update an algorithm, ... - [ ] Impacts security? - **Security** - Does the change have a direct security impact on an application, flow, or firmware? - Examples: Crypto algorithm change, buffer overflow fix, parameter validation improvement, ... - [ ] Breaking change? - **Breaking change** - Will anyone consuming this change experience a break in build or boot behavior? - Examples: Add a new library class, move a module to a different repo, call a function in a new library class in a pre-existing module, ... - [ ] Includes tests? - **Tests** - Does the change include any explicit test code? - Examples: Unit tests, integration tests, robot tests, ... - [ ] Includes documentation? - **Documentation** - Does the change contain explicit documentation additions outside direct code modifications (and comments)? - Examples: Update readme file, add feature readme file, link to documentation on an a separate Web page, ...
