This function will export one or all package lists in the database to a buffer. For each package list exported, this function will call functions registered with EXPORT_PACK and then copy the package list to the buffer. The registered functions may call EFI_HII_DATABASE_PROTOCOL.UpdatePackageList() to modify the package list before it is copied to the buffer. If the specified BufferSize is too small, then the status EFI_OUT_OF_RESOURCES will be returned and the actual package size will be returned in BufferSize.

Parameters
ThisA pointer to the EFI_HII_DATABASE_PROTOCOL instance.
HandleAn EFI_HII_HANDLE that corresponds to the desired package list in the HII database to export or NULL to indicate all package lists should be exported.
BufferSizeOn input, a pointer to the length of the buffer. On output, the length of the buffer that is required for the exported data.
BufferA pointer to a buffer that will contain the results of the export function.
Return values
EFI_SUCCESSPackage exported.
EFI_OUT_OF_RESOURCESBufferSize is too small to hold the package.
EFI_NOT_FOUNDThe specified Handle could not be found in the current database.
EFI_INVALID_PARAMETERBufferSize was NULL.

The update process has the following steps: Collect all the package types in the package list specified by PackageList. A package type consists of the Type field of EFI_HII_PACKAGE_HEADER and, if the Type is EFI_HII_PACKAGE_TYPE_GUID, the Guid field, as defined in EFI_HII_PACKAGE_GUID_HEADER. Iterate through the packages within the existing package list in the HII database specified by Handle. If a package's type matches one of the collected types collected in step 1, then perform the following steps:

  • Call any functions registered with the notification type REMOVE_PACK.
  • Remove the package from the package list and the HII database. Add all of the packages within the new package list specified by PackageList, using the following steps:
  • Add the package to the package list and the HII database.
  • Call any functions registered with the notification type ADD_PACK.
Parameters
ThisA pointer to the EFI_HII_DATABASE_PROTOCOL instance.
HandleThe handle that was registered to the data that is requested for removal.
PackageListA pointer to an EFI_HII_PACKAGE_LIST package.
