50a64e5b | 2 | Provides library services to make PAL Calls.\r |
8789c5e0 | 3 | \r |
4 | The PAL Library provides a service to make a PAL CALL. This service is identical\r | |
1a2f870c | 5 | in functionality to AsmPalCall() in the functions of the Base Library specific to Intel Itanium architecture.\r |
6 | The only difference is that the PAL Entry Point is not passed in. Implementations\r | |
8789c5e0 | 7 | of this library class must manage PAL Entry Point on their own. For example, a PEI\r |
8 | implementation can use a PPI to lookup the PAL Entry Point, and a DXE implementation\r | |
9 | can contain a constructor to look up the PAL Entry Point from a HOB. This library class \r | |
1a2f870c | 10 | is only available on Intel Itanium-based platforms.\r |

29 | Makes a PAL procedure call.\r | |
30 | \r | |
31 | This is a wrapper function to make a PAL procedure call. Based on the Index value,\r | |
32 | this API will make static or stacked PAL call. Architected procedures may be designated\r | |
33 | as required or optional. If a PAL procedure is specified as optional, a unique return\r | |
34 | code of 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF is returned in the Status field of the PAL_CALL_RETURN structure.\r | |
35 | This indicates that the procedure is not present in this PAL implementation. It is the\r | |
ac644614 | 36 | caller's responsibility to check for this return code after calling any optional PAL\r |
fb3df220 | 37 | procedure. No parameter checking is performed on the 4 input parameters, but there are\r |
38 | some common rules that the caller should follow when making a PAL call. Any address\r | |
39 | passed to PAL as buffers for return parameters must be 8-byte aligned. Unaligned addresses\r | |
40 | may cause undefined results. For those parameters defined as reserved or some fields\r | |
41 | defined as reserved must be zero filled or the invalid argument return value may be\r | |
42 | returned or undefined result may occur during the execution of the procedure.\r | |
1a2f870c | 43 | This function is only available on Intel Itanium-based platforms.\r |
