◆ GetFileBufferByFilePath()

VOID *EFIAPI GetFileBufferByFilePath	(	IN BOOLEAN	BootPolicy,
		IN CONST EFI_DEVICE_PATH_PROTOCOL *	FilePath,
		OUT UINTN *	FileSize,
		OUT UINT32 *	AuthenticationStatus
	)

Get the image file buffer data and buffer size by its device path.

Access the file either from a firmware volume, from a file system interface, or from the load file interface.

Allocate memory to store the found image. The caller is responsible to free memory.

If FilePath is NULL, then NULL is returned. If FileSize is NULL, then NULL is returned. If AuthenticationStatus is NULL, then NULL is returned.

Parameters

[in]	BootPolicy	Policy for Open Image File.If TRUE, indicates that the request originates from the boot manager, and that the boot manager is attempting to load FilePath as a boot selection. If FALSE, then FilePath must match an exact file to be loaded.
[in]	FilePath	The pointer to the device path of the file that is abstracted to the file buffer.
[out]	FileSize	The pointer to the size of the abstracted file buffer.
[out]	AuthenticationStatus	Pointer to the authentication status.

Return values

NULL	FilePath is NULL, or FileSize is NULL, or AuthenticationStatus is NULL, or the file can't be found.
other	The abstracted file buffer. The caller is responsible to free memory.

	)

Searches all the available firmware volumes and returns the file device path of first matching FFS section.

This function searches all the firmware volumes for FFS files with an FFS filename specified by NameGuid. The order that the firmware volumes is searched is not deterministic. For each FFS file found a search is made for FFS sections of type SectionType.

If SectionType is EFI_SECTION_TE, and the search with an FFS file fails, the search will be retried with a section type of EFI_SECTION_PE32. This function must be called with a TPL <= TPL_NOTIFY.

If NameGuid is NULL, then ASSERT().

Parameters

NameGuid	A pointer to to the FFS filename GUID to search for within any of the firmware volumes in the platform.
SectionType	Indicates the FFS section type to search for within the FFS file specified by NameGuid.
SectionInstance	Indicates which section instance within the FFS file specified by NameGuid to retrieve.
FvFileDevicePath	Device path for the target FFS file.

Return values

EFI_SUCCESS	The specified file device path of FFS section was returned.
EFI_NOT_FOUND	The specified file device path of FFS section could not be found.
EFI_DEVICE_ERROR	The FFS section could not be retrieves due to a device error.
EFI_ACCESS_DENIED	The FFS section could not be retrieves because the firmware volume that contains the matching FFS section does not allow reads.
EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER	FvFileDevicePath is NULL.

◆ GetSectionFromAnyFv()

EFI_STATUS EFIAPI GetSectionFromAnyFv	(	IN CONST EFI_GUID *	NameGuid,
		IN EFI_SECTION_TYPE	SectionType,

	)

Searches all the availables firmware volumes and returns the first matching FFS section.

This function searches all the firmware volumes for FFS files with an FFS filename specified by NameGuid. The order that the firmware volumes is searched is not deterministic. For each FFS file found a search is made for FFS sections of type SectionType. If the FFS file contains at least SectionInstance instances of the FFS section specified by SectionType, then the SectionInstance instance is returned in Buffer. Buffer is allocated using AllocatePool(), and the size of the allocated buffer is returned in Size. It is the caller's responsibility to use FreePool() to free the allocated buffer. See EFI_FIRMWARE_VOLUME2_PROTOCOL.ReadSection() for details on how sections are retrieved from an FFS file based on SectionType and SectionInstance.

If SectionType is EFI_SECTION_TE, and the search with an FFS file fails, the search will be retried with a section type of EFI_SECTION_PE32. This function must be called with a TPL <= TPL_NOTIFY.

If NameGuid is NULL, then ASSERT(). If Buffer is NULL, then ASSERT(). If Size is NULL, then ASSERT().

Parameters

NameGuid	A pointer to to the FFS filename GUID to search for within any of the firmware volumes in the platform.
SectionType	Indicates the FFS section type to search for within the FFS file specified by NameGuid.
SectionInstance	Indicates which section instance within the FFS file specified by NameGuid to retrieve.
Buffer	On output, a pointer to a callee allocated buffer containing the FFS file section that was found. Is it the caller's responsibility to free this buffer using FreePool().
Size	On output, a pointer to the size, in bytes, of Buffer.

Return values

EFI_SUCCESS	The specified FFS section was returned.
EFI_NOT_FOUND	The specified FFS section could not be found.
EFI_OUT_OF_RESOURCES	There are not enough resources available to retrieve the matching FFS section.
EFI_DEVICE_ERROR	The FFS section could not be retrieves due to a device error.

		OUT UINTN *	Size
	)

Searches all the available firmware volumes and returns the first matching FFS section.

This function searches all the firmware volumes for FFS files with FV file type specified by FileType The order that the firmware volumes is searched is not deterministic. For each available FV a search is made for FFS file of type FileType. If the FV contains more than one FFS file with the same FileType, the FileInstance instance will be the matched FFS file. For each FFS file found a search is made for FFS sections of type SectionType. If the FFS file contains at least SectionInstance instances of the FFS section specified by SectionType, then the SectionInstance instance is returned in Buffer.

		IN UINTN	SectionInstance,
		OUT VOID **	Buffer,
		OUT UINTN *	Size
	)

Allocate and fill a buffer from a Firmware Section identified by a Firmware File GUID name, a Firmware Section type and instance number from the specified Firmware Volume.

This functions first locate the EFI_FIRMWARE_VOLUME2_PROTOCOL protocol instance on FvHandle in order to carry out the Firmware Volume read operation. The function then reads the Firmware Section found specified by NameGuid, SectionType and SectionInstance.

The details of this search order is defined in description of EFI_FIRMWARE_VOLUME2_PROTOCOL.ReadSection () found in PI Specification.

If SectionType is EFI_SECTION_TE, EFI_SECTION_TE is used as section type to start the search. If EFI_SECTION_TE section is not found, EFI_SECTION_PE32 will be used to try the search again. If no EFI_SECTION_PE32 section is found, EFI_NOT_FOUND is returned.

The data and size is returned by Buffer and Size. The caller is responsible to free the Buffer allocated by this function. This function can be only called at TPL_NOTIFY and below.

If NameGuid is NULL, then ASSERT(); If Buffer is NULL, then ASSERT(); If Size is NULL, then ASSERT().

Parameters

FvHandle	The device handle that contains a instance of EFI_FIRMWARE_VOLUME2_PROTOCOL instance.
NameGuid	The GUID name of a Firmware File.
SectionType	The Firmware Section type.
SectionInstance	The instance number of Firmware Section to read from starting from 0.
Buffer	On output, Buffer contains the data read from the section in the Firmware File found.
Size	On output, the size of Buffer.

Return values

EFI_SUCCESS	The image is found and data and size is returned.
EFI_NOT_FOUND	The image specified by NameGuid and SectionType can't be found.
EFI_OUT_OF_RESOURCES	There were not enough resources to allocate the output data buffer or complete the operations.
EFI_DEVICE_ERROR	A hardware error occurs during reading from the Firmware Volume.
EFI_ACCESS_DENIED	The firmware volume containing the searched Firmware File is configured to disallow reads.

◆ InternalImageHandleToFvHandle()

EFI_HANDLE InternalImageHandleToFvHandle ( EFI_HANDLE ImageHandle )

Identify the device handle from which the Image is loaded from. As this device handle is passed to GetSectionFromFv as the identifier for a Firmware Volume, an EFI_FIRMWARE_VOLUME2_PROTOCOL protocol instance should be located successfully by calling gBS->HandleProtocol ().

This function locates the EFI_LOADED_IMAGE_PROTOCOL instance installed on ImageHandle. It then returns EFI_LOADED_IMAGE_PROTOCOL.DeviceHandle.

If ImageHandle is NULL, then ASSERT (); If failed to locate a EFI_LOADED_IMAGE_PROTOCOL on ImageHandle, then ASSERT ();

Parameters

ImageHandle The firmware allocated handle for UEFI image.

Return values

EFI_HANDLE The device handle from which the Image is loaded from.
