Re: [edk2-devel][edk2-test][PATCH v2 1/1] uefi-sct/SctPkg AdapterInfo SetInformation may return unsupported

["Eric Jin" <eric.jin@intel.com>]

Add [edk2-test] in subject

Hi Tom,

Revisit the test, it gets the InformationType from GetSupportedTypes(), then call SetInformation() with the supported InformationType. In this scenario,  the EFI_UNSUPPORTED doesn't make sense. If the adapter doesn't want to support the function SetInformation at all, EFI_WRITE_PROTECTED may be better choice.

Copy the spec description as below.
EFI_WRITE_PROTECTED The InformationType cannot be modified using
EFI_ADAPTER_INFO_SET_INFO()
EFI_UNSUPPORTED The InformationType is not known.

Best Regards
Eric

EFI_UNSUPPORTED The InformationType is not known.
The description is described as above in UEFI Spec.

In this case, the test gets the InformationType from EFI_ADAPTER_GET_INFO(), so the SetInformationfunction return EFI_UNSUPPORTED doesn't make sense. The reason is not covered by spec at least.

How about to do some basic check in device or return EFI_DEVICE_ERROR. 
And the test could add EFI_DEVICE_ERROR into acceptable return code.

If AdapterInfo.SetInformation() is unsupported, it will return EFI_UNSUPPORTED. Do not fail the test in this case.
