2 If a GUID-defined section is encountered when doing section extraction,
3 the PEI Foundation or the EFI_PEI_FILE_LOADER_PPI instance
4 calls the appropriate instance of the GUIDed Section Extraction PPI
5 to extract the section stream contained therein.

34 Processes the input section and returns the data contained therein
35 along with the authentication status.
37 The ExtractSection() function processes the input section and
38 returns a pointer to the section contents. If the section being
39 extracted does not require processing (if the section
40 GuidedSectionHeader.Attributes has the
41 EFI_GUIDED_SECTION_PROCESSING_REQUIRED field cleared), then
42 OutputBuffer is just updated to point to the start of the
43 section's contents. Otherwise, *Buffer must be allocated
44 from PEI permanent memory.
46 @param This Indicates the EFI_PEI_GUIDED_SECTION_EXTRACTION_PPI
48 @param InputSection Buffer containing the input GUIDed section to be
50 @param OutputBuffer *OutputBuffer is allocated from PEI permanent memory
51 and contains the new section stream.
52 @param OutputSize A pointer to a caller-allocated UINTN in which
53 the size of *OutputBuffer allocation is stored.
54 If the function returns anything other than
55 EFI_SUCCESS, the value of *OutputSize is undefined.
56 @param AuthenticationStatus A pointer to a caller-allocated UINT32 that indicates
57 the authentication status of the output buffer.
58 If the input section's
59 GuidedSectionHeader.Attributes field has the
60 EFI_GUIDED_SECTION_AUTH_STATUS_VALID bit as clear,
61 *AuthenticationStatus must return zero. These bits
62 reflect the status of the extraction operation.
63 If the function returns anything other than EFI_SUCCESS,
64 the value of *AuthenticationStatus is undefined.
66 @retval EFI_SUCCESS The InputSection was successfully processed and the
67 section contents were returned.
68 @retval EFI_OUT_OF_RESOURCES The system has insufficient resources to process the request.
69 @retval EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER The GUID in InputSection does not match this instance of the
70 GUIDed Section Extraction PPI.
