This only limits allowed PLDM commands to the supported array: https://github.com/changab/edk2-platforms/blob/5af7ca1555863288bd2887ca465a= d07d74b9868e/Features/ManageabilityPkg/Universal/PldmProtocol/Common/PldmPr= otocolCommon.c#L261 This means that right now I can't execute my simple 'GetPLDMTypes' command through the 'PldmSubmit' protocol function.
