Based on PciIo, the *HCI drivers can query additional information from PCI CFG header, instead of just using the PCI class code. But with the NonDiscoverableDevice protocol, there is no additional information can help the *HCI drivers decide which to manage. I don't see any practical negative point which prevents degrading NonDiscoverableDevice protocol to NonDiscoverable*Pci*Protocol. After all, as I said, all *HCI drivers are based on PciIo. > >Thanks, >Ard. >_______________________________________________ >edk2-devel mailing list >edk2-devel@lists.01.org >https://lists.01.org/mailman/listinfo/edk2-devel
