Detailed Description

UEFI Platform to Driver Configuration Protocol is defined in UEFI specification.

This is a protocol that is optionally produced by the platform and optionally consumed by a UEFI Driver in its Start() function. This protocol allows the driver to receive configuration information as part of being started.

Typedef Documentation

typedef EFI_STATUS(EFIAPI * EFI_PLATFORM_TO_DRIVER_CONFIGURATION_QUERY)(IN CONST EFI_PLATFORM_TO_DRIVER_CONFIGURATION_PROTOCOL *This, IN CONST EFI_HANDLE ControllerHandle, IN CONST EFI_HANDLE ChildHandle, IN CONST UINTN *Instance, OUT EFI_GUID **ParameterTypeGuid, OUT VOID **ParameterBlock, OUT UINTN *ParameterBlockSize)

The UEFI driver must call Query early in the Start() function before any time consuming operations are performed. If ChildHandle is NULL the driver is requesting information from the platform about the ControllerHandle that is being started. Information returned from Query may lead to the drivers Start() function failing. If the UEFI driver is a bus driver and producing a ChildHandle, the driver must call Query after the child handle has been created and an EFI_DEVICE_PATH_PROTOCOL has been placed on that handle, but before any time consuming operation is performed. If information return by Query may lead the driver to decide to not create the ChildHandle. The driver must then cleanup and remove the ChildHandle from the system. The UEFI driver repeatedly calls Query, processes the information returned by the platform, and calls Response passing in the arguments returned from Query. The Instance value passed into Response must be the same value passed into the corresponding call to Query. The UEFI driver must continuously call Query and Response until EFI_NOT_FOUND is returned by Query. If the UEFI driver does not recognize the ParameterTypeGuid, it calls Response with a ConfigurationAction of EfiPlatformConfigurationActionUnsupportedGuid. The UEFI driver must then continue calling Query and Response until EFI_NOT_FOUND is returned by Query. This gives the platform an opportunity to pass additional configuration settings using a different ParameterTypeGuid that may be supported by the driver. An Instance value of zero means return the first ParameterBlock in the set of unprocessed parameter blocks. The driver should increment the Instance value by one for each successive call to Query.

Parameters
ThisA pointer to the EFI_PLATFORM_TO_DRIVER_CONFIGURATION_PROTOCOL instance.
ControllerHandleThe handle the platform will return configuration information about.
ChildHandleThe handle of the child controller to return information on. This is an optional parameter that may be NULL. It will be NULL for device drivers and for bus drivers that attempt to get options for the bus controller. It will not be NULL for a bus driver that attempts to get options for one of its child controllers.
InstancePointer to the Instance value. Zero means return the first query data. The caller should increment this value by one each time to retrieve successive data.
ParameterTypeGuidAn EFI_GUID that defines the contents of ParameterBlock. UEFI drivers must use the ParameterTypeGuid to determine how to parse the ParameterBlock. The caller should not attempt to free ParameterTypeGuid.
ParameterBlockThe platform returns a pointer to the ParameterBlock structure which contains details about the configuration parameters specific to the ParameterTypeGuid. This structure is defined based on the protocol and may be different for different protocols. UEFI driver decodes this structure and its contents based on ParameterTypeGuid. ParameterBlock is allocated by the platform and the platform is responsible for freeing the ParameterBlock after Result is called.
ParameterBlockSizeThe platform returns the size of the ParameterBlock in bytes.
Return values
EFI_SUCCESSThe platform return parameter information for ControllerHandle.
EFI_NOT_FOUNDNo more unread Instance exists.
EFI_INVALID_PARAMETERControllerHandle is NULL.
EFI_INVALID_PARAMETERInstance is NULL.
EFI_DEVICE_ERRORA device error occurred while attempting to return parameter block information for the controller specified by ControllerHandle and ChildHandle.
EFI_OUT_RESOURCESThere are not enough resources available to set the configuration options for the controller specified by ControllerHandle and ChildHandle.
typedef EFI_STATUS(EFIAPI * EFI_PLATFORM_TO_DRIVER_CONFIGURATION_RESPONSE)(IN CONST EFI_PLATFORM_TO_DRIVER_CONFIGURATION_PROTOCOL *This, IN CONST EFI_HANDLE ControllerHandle, IN CONST EFI_HANDLE ChildHandle, IN CONST UINTN *Instance, IN CONST EFI_GUID *ParameterTypeGuid, IN CONST VOID *ParameterBlock, IN CONST UINTN ParameterBlockSize, IN CONST EFI_PLATFORM_CONFIGURATION_ACTION ConfigurationAction)

The UEFI driver repeatedly calls Query, processes the information returned by the platform, and calls Response passing in the arguments returned from Query. The UEFI driver must continuously call Query until EFI_NOT_FOUND is returned. For every call to Query that returns EFI_SUCCESS a corrisponding call to Response is required passing in the same ContollerHandle, ChildHandle, Instance, ParameterTypeGuid, ParameterBlock, and ParameterBlockSize. The UEFI driver may update values in ParameterBlock based on rules defined by ParameterTypeGuid. The platform is responsible for freeing ParameterBlock and the UEFI driver must not try to free it.

Parameters
ThisA pointer to the EFI_PLATFORM_TO_DRIVER_CONFIGURATION_PROTOCOL instance.
ControllerHandleThe handle the driver is returning configuration information about.
ChildHandleThe handle of the child controller to return information on. This is an optional parameter that may be NULL. It will be NULL for device drivers, and for bus drivers that attempt to get options for the bus controller. It will not be NULL for a bus driver that attempts to get options for one of its child controllers. Instance Instance data returned from Query().
InstanceInstance data passed to Query().
ParameterTypeGuidParameterTypeGuid returned from Query.
ParameterBlockParameterBlock returned from Query.
ParameterBlockSizeThe ParameterBlock size returned from Query.
ConfigurationActionThe driver tells the platform what action is required for ParameterBlock to take effect.
Return values
EFI_SUCCESSThe platform return parameter information for ControllerHandle.
EFI_NOT_FOUNDInstance was not found.
EFI_INVALID_PARAMETERControllerHandle is NULL.
EFI_INVALID_PARAMETERInstance is zero.

Enumeration Type Documentation

Enumerator
EfiPlatformConfigurationActionNone 

The controller specified by ControllerHandle is still in a usable state, and its configuration has been updated via parsing the ParameterBlock. If required by the parameter block, and the module supports an NVRAM store, the configuration information from PB was successfully saved to the NVRAM. No actions are required before this controller can be used again with the updated configuration settings.

EfiPlatformConfigurationActionStopController 

The driver has detected that the controller specified by ControllerHandle is not in a usable state and needs to be stopped. The calling agent can use the DisconnectControservice to perform this operation, and it should be performed as soon as possible.

EfiPlatformConfigurationActionRestartController 

This controller specified by ControllerHandle needs to be stopped and restarted before it can be used again. The calling agent can use the DisconnectController() and ConnectController() services to perform this operation. The restart operation can be delayed until all of the configuration options have been set.

EfiPlatformConfigurationActionRestartPlatform 

A configuration change has been made that requires the platform to be restarted before the controller specified by ControllerHandle can be used again. The calling agent can use the ResetSystem() services to perform this operation. The restart operation can be delayed until all of the configuration options have been set.

EfiPlatformConfigurationActionNvramFailed 

The controller specified by ControllerHandle is still in a usable state; its configuration has been updated via parsing the ParameterBlock. The driver tried to update the driver's private NVRAM store with information from ParameterBlock and failed. No actions are required before this controller can be used again with the updated configuration settings, but these configuration settings are not guaranteed to persist after ControllerHandle is stopped.

EfiPlatformConfigurationActionUnsupportedGuid 

The controller specified by ControllerHandle is still in a usable state; its configuration has not been updated via parsing the ParameterBlock. The driver did not support the ParameterBlock format identified by ParameterTypeGuid. No actions are required before this controller can be used again. On additional Query calls from this ControllerHandle, the platform should stop returning a ParameterBlock qualified by this same ParameterTypeGuid. If no other ParameterTypeGuid is supported by the platform, Query should return EFI_NOT_FOUND.
