2 Provides library functions for common UEFI operations. Only available to DXE
5 The UEFI Library provides functions and macros that simplify the development of
6 UEFI Drivers and UEFI Applications. These functions and macros help manage EFI
7 events, build simple locks utilizing EFI Task Priority Levels (TPLs), install
8 EFI Driver Model related protocols, manage Unicode string tables for UEFI Drivers,
9 and print messages on the console output and standard error devices.
11 Note that a reserved macro named MDEPKG_NDEBUG is introduced for the intention
12 of size reduction when compiler optimization is disabled. If MDEPKG_NDEBUG is
13 defined, then debug and assert related macros wrapped by it are the NULL implementations.

830 This function supports both ISO 639-2 and RFC 4646 language codes, but language
831 code types may not be mixed in a single call to this function. The language
832 code returned is allocated using AllocatePool(). The caller is responsible for
833 freeing the allocated buffer using FreePool(). This function supports a variable
834 argument list that allows the caller to pass in a prioritized list of language
835 codes to test against all the language codes in SupportedLanguages.

839 @param[in] SupportedLanguages A pointer to a Null-terminated ASCII string that
840 contains a set of language codes in the format

845 @param[in] ... A variable argument list that contains pointers to
846 Null-terminated ASCII strings that contain one or more
847 language codes in the format specified by Iso639Language.
848 The first language code from each of these language
849 code lists is used to determine if it is an exact or
850 close match to any of the language codes in
851 SupportedLanguages. Close matches only apply to RFC 4646
852 language codes, and the matching algorithm from RFC 4647
853 is used to determine if a close match is present. If
854 an exact or close match is found, then the matching
855 language code from SupportedLanguages is returned. If
856 no matches are found, then the next variable argument
857 parameter is evaluated. The variable argument list

1677 Open or create a file or directory, possibly creating the chain of
1678 directories leading up to the directory.
1680 EfiOpenFileByDevicePath() first locates EFI_SIMPLE_FILE_SYSTEM_PROTOCOL on
1681 FilePath, and opens the root directory of that filesystem with
1682 EFI_SIMPLE_FILE_SYSTEM_PROTOCOL.OpenVolume().
1684 On the remaining device path, the longest initial sequence of
1685 FILEPATH_DEVICE_PATH nodes is node-wise traversed with
1686 EFI_FILE_PROTOCOL.Open().
1688 (As a consequence, if OpenMode includes EFI_FILE_MODE_CREATE, and Attributes
1689 includes EFI_FILE_DIRECTORY, and each FILEPATH_DEVICE_PATH specifies a single
1690 pathname component, then EfiOpenFileByDevicePath() ensures that the specified
1691 series of subdirectories exist on return.)
1693 The EFI_FILE_PROTOCOL identified by the last FILEPATH_DEVICE_PATH node is
1694 output to the caller; intermediate EFI_FILE_PROTOCOL instances are closed. If
1695 there are no FILEPATH_DEVICE_PATH nodes past the node that identifies the
1696 filesystem, then the EFI_FILE_PROTOCOL of the root directory of the
1697 filesystem is output to the caller. If a device path node that is different
1698 from FILEPATH_DEVICE_PATH is encountered relative to the filesystem, the
1699 traversal is stopped with an error, and a NULL EFI_FILE_PROTOCOL is output.
1701 @param[in,out] FilePath On input, the device path to the file or directory
1702 to open or create. The caller is responsible for
1703 ensuring that the device path pointed-to by FilePath
1704 is well-formed. On output, FilePath points one past
1705 the last node in the original device path that has
1706 been successfully processed. FilePath is set on
1707 output even if EfiOpenFileByDevicePath() returns an
1710 @param[out] File On error, File is set to NULL. On success, File is
1711 set to the EFI_FILE_PROTOCOL of the root directory
1712 of the filesystem, if there are no
1713 FILEPATH_DEVICE_PATH nodes in FilePath; otherwise,
1714 File is set to the EFI_FILE_PROTOCOL identified by
1715 the last node in FilePath.
1717 @param[in] OpenMode The OpenMode parameter to pass to
1718 EFI_FILE_PROTOCOL.Open().
1720 @param[in] Attributes The Attributes parameter to pass to
1721 EFI_FILE_PROTOCOL.Open().
1723 @retval EFI_SUCCESS The file or directory has been opened or
1726 @retval EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER FilePath is NULL; or File is NULL; or FilePath
1727 contains a device path node, past the node
1729 EFI_SIMPLE_FILE_SYSTEM_PROTOCOL, that is not a
