2 Provides services to create and parse HOBs. Only available for PEI
3 and DXE module types.
4
5 The HOB Library supports the efficient creation and searching of HOBs
6 defined in the PI Specification.
7 A HOB is a Hand-Off Block, defined in the Framework architecture, that
8 allows the PEI phase to pass information to the DXE phase. HOBs are position
9 independent and can be relocated easily to different memory memory locations.

28 This function returns the pointer to first HOB in the list.
29 For PEI phase, the PEI service GetHobList() can be used to retrieve the pointer
30 to the HOB list. For the DXE phase, the HOB list pointer can be retrieved through
31 the EFI System Table by looking up theHOB list GUID in the System Configuration Table.
32 Since the System Configuration Table does not exist that the time the DXE Core is
33 launched, the DXE Core uses a global variable from the DXE Core Entry Point Library
34 to manage the pointer to the HOB list.
