Subject: IpmiCommandLib's IpmiGetSystemUuid clarification
Date: Mon, 26 Jun 2023 12:43:53 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <370171eb-5fd3-449c-b44a-5d0ef747f57c@linux.microsoft.com> (raw)
I was hoping to get a clarification on the IpmiGetSystemUuid from
MdeModulePkg...
IPMI specification's Get Device Guid Command says that data is returned
in "least signification byte first" and "this is the reverse of
convention described in RFC4122".
IpmiGetSystemUuid specifies that it is returning an EFI_GUID. Does this
mean that the IpmigetSystemUuid is going to reverse the formatting and
return an EFI_GUID as opposed to what is directly returned from the
Management Device?
To help clarify:
typedef struct {
UINT32 Data1;
UINT16 Data2;
UINT16 Data3;
UINT8 Data4[8];
} EFI_GUID;
vs
typedef struct {
UINT8 Data4[8];
UINT16 Data3;
UINT16 Data2;
UINT32 Data1;
} IPMI_GUID;
Thank you,
Aaron
