If there is an exact match, the mapping is returned and *DevicePath points to the end-of-device-path node.

If there are multiple map names they will be semi-colon separated in the NULL-terminated string.

Parameters
DevicePathOn entry, points to a device path pointer. On exit, updates the pointer to point to the portion of the device path after the mapping.
Return values

◆ EfiShellOpenFileByName()

EFI_STATUS EFIAPI EfiShellOpenFileByName ( IN CONST CHAR16 *  FileName,
OUT SHELL_FILE_HANDLE *  FileHandle,
IN UINT64  OpenMode 
)

Opens a file or a directory by file name.

This function opens the specified file in the specified OpenMode and returns a file handle. If the file name begins with >v, then the file handle which is returned refers to the shell environment variable with the specified name. If the shell environment variable exists, is non-volatile and the OpenMode indicates EFI_FILE_MODE_WRITE, then EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER is returned.

If the file name is >i, then the file handle which is returned refers to the standard input. If the OpenMode indicates EFI_FILE_MODE_WRITE, then EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER is returned.

If the file name is >o, then the file handle which is returned refers to the standard output. If the OpenMode indicates EFI_FILE_MODE_READ, then EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER is returned.

If the file name is >e, then the file handle which is returned refers to the standard error. If the OpenMode indicates EFI_FILE_MODE_READ, then EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER is returned.

If the file name is NUL, then the file handle that is returned refers to the standard NUL file. If the OpenMode indicates EFI_FILE_MODE_READ, then EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER is returned.

If return EFI_SUCCESS, the FileHandle is the opened file's handle, else, the FileHandle is NULL.

Parameters
FileNamePoints to the NULL-terminated UCS-2 encoded file name.
FileHandleOn return, points to the file handle.
OpenModeFile open mode. Either EFI_FILE_MODE_READ or EFI_FILE_MODE_WRITE from section 12.4 of the UEFI Specification.
