Re: OSRecovery boot options

For #1.
Typically the OS.  The platform already has its own PlatformRecovery.

For #2
There's a prototype available to UEFI members that was used to vet some of the changes during UEFI 2.7 deliberations at https://github.com/UEFI/uefiproto/tree/master/OsRecovery 
You can request access as a UEFI member to the repo if interested near-term.  This needs to move to EDKII staging since the 2.7 specification is now public, though.

Subject: [edk2] OSRecovery boot options

Hi All,
   I am looking at EDK2 implementation for OS Recovery boot options but could not find a code in EDK2 which handles OSRecovery#### option creation and a code to parse OSRecoveryOrder variable and launch OS Recovery boot options.

Questions:

1.       Who is responsible to create OSRecovery#### boot options and OSRecoveryOrder variable? Is UEFI platform owner or OS vendor responsible to create?

2.       Is there an existing BDS implementation out there to manage/launch OS Recovery boot options?

Thanks,
Tapan
