Re: UEFI Image Attribute

[TVKR <tresko1@gmail.com>]

Thanks for the reply Igor.

Yes, I was referring to the AttributesSetting of the
EFI_FIRMWARE_IMAGE_DESCRIPTOR which is read as part of the GetImageInfo
service of the FMP on a device.

So,if the device sets this attributes, does it mean that its UEFI driver's
FMP implementation can ONLY support firmware files created as per the PI
spec's FV/FFS format?
