Hi,

Is it ok to close the event and release the resource allocated to be
sent as context inside the notify function. May be something like this

VOID
EFIAPI
NotifyRoutine (
       EFI_EVENT Event,
       VOID  *Context
)
{
   //
   // Perform intended task
   //
   FreePool (Context);
   gBS->CloseEvent (Event);
}

In the above example Context was allocated before creating the event
and passed as a parameter to CreateEvent().

Regards,
Arka
