Subject: EFI_FIRMWARE_IMAGE_DESCRIPTOR v1/v2/v3: MdePkg and ShellPkg
Date: Thu, 16 Feb 2017 15:47:33 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <27f6c46b-aebe-a250-eb17-b93267c12a82@bluestop.org> (raw)
I'm a bit confused about why Firmware Management Protocol image
descriptor structures are split between MdePkg and ShellPkg:
In MdePkg/Include/Protocol/FirmwareInformation.h there's the definition
of EFI_FIRMWARE_IMAGE_DESCRIPTOR (version 3). But then the
EFI_FIRMWARE_IMAGE_DESCRIPTOR_V1 and EFI_FIRMWARE_IMAGE_DESCRIPTOR_V2
struct definitions are in
ShellPkg/Library/UefiHandleParsingLib/UefiHandleParsingLib.h along with
some seemingly-unrelated stuff - and that file appears to have a
ridiculous number of #include's!
Is there a reasoning behind putting the older structures in ShellPkg, or
should they be moved to FirmwareInformation.h?
