Hi all,
I am developing a UEFI_DRIVER for a custom PCIe device. I've followed
the UEFI Driver Model, and implemented the Driver Binding, Component
Name, and Component Name 2 protocols for my driver. I'm trying to
retrieve the Controller Name from this driver in a UEFI_APPLICATION, but
I've run into an issue.
In the driver's Start() function, I open the EFI_PCI_IO_PROTOCOL on
ControllerHandle using the following:
Status = gBS->OpenProtocol (
ControllerHandle,
&gEfiPciIoProtocolGuid,
(VOID **)&PciIoProtocol,
This->DriverBindingHandle,
ControllerHandle,
EFI_OPEN_PROTOCOL_BY_DRIVER
);
And leave it open when Start() exits, unless some other part of the
Start() function fails, which doesn't appear to be happening based on my
debug messages.
Following some of the examples in edk2, in my Component Name's
GetControllerName() function, I used EfiTestManagedDevice() to check
that the ControllerHandle opened EFI_PCI_IO_PROTOCOL:
Status = EfiTestManagedDevice (
ControllerHandle,
g<devicename>DriverBinding.DriverBindingHandle,
&gEfiPciIoProtocolGuid
);
Finally, to get the Controller Name in the application, I first get a
buffer of handles that publish the ComponentName2 protocol, then walk
through each and call GetControllerName().
However, the EfiTestManagedDevice() check in my driver is returning
EFI_UNSUPPORTED, indicating the protocol is not supported on the handle.
Furthermore, after using "load <drivername>.efi" from the shell,
openinfo on the handle returns:
Handle 188 (6E16A798)
ComponentName2
ComponentName
DriverBinding
Drv[01] Ctrl[ ] Cnt(200) HandProt Image(<null string>)
ImageDevicePath
Drv[187] Ctrl[ ] Cnt(01) GetProt Image(<null string>)
LoadedImage
Drv[01] Ctrl[ ] Cnt(09) HandProt Image(<null string>)
I feel like maybe I'm missing a step here. Should I see PciIo in
openinfo? Do I need to open a "child" instance of the ControllerHandle
in my application to get EfiTestManagedDevice() to pass? I'm not sure
if that's the right terminology, I'm having a little difficulty
understanding the "child" concept in this context. Any tips appreciated.

Hello again,
I think the problem lies in my application, as upon further
investigation, all the handles that publish the Component Name 2
protocol appear to be failing the EfiTestManagedDevice() check (they all
return EFI_UNSUPPORTED). My eventual goal is, given a buffer of handles
that publish EFI_PCI_IO_PROTOCOL, I would like to locate my specific
device. I was going to do a string comparison of the ControllerName,
but this doesn't seem to be the right approach. Is there a recommended
way to accomplish this?
Regards,
David

Hello David,
It sounds like you are trying to get a list of handles to your specific
devices, correct?
One way to do this is to create a new protocol for your devices and create
an instance of this protocol when your driver attaches to a PCI device.
Then you can just retrieve all handles that match your new protocol.
Creating a new protocol for this use case could be as simple as just
allocating a unique GUID, using uuidgen or something similar. You don't
necessarily need to have data or functions associated with your protocol
for this purpose, although that may prove useful.
I wouldn't consider myself an expert of any kind on UEFI drivers, so if
others see problems with my suggestions or have better ideas, please chime
in.
Regards,
Jeff

This sounds like a simple method to accomplish what I need, thanks. I
assume I would install the custom protocol in the same place I install
the Driver Binding and Component Name(2) implementations?

Hi David,
You would install the protocol in the start function of your driver. When
the start function is called, it passes you an EFI_HANDLE. You install
your protocol on this handle.

Jeff
