Hi Felix, Some of the future work that I described in my last GSoC 2019 blog post [1] still applies, such as creating a dependency graph for UEFI protocols. While it doesn't include this feature, another project (efiSeek) implements a Ghidra analyzer plugin with several features, including improved type detection and support for UEFI SMM modules. I don't know if it's worth duplicating this effort in ghidra-firmware-utils, though I was working on refactoring the helper script into an analyzer plugin at some point.
Overall, there is some work that could be done in ghidra-firmware-utils, but I'm not sure if it's enough for an entire GSoC project. Unfortunately, my free time is quite limited these days, so I don't think I can be a mentor for this project. :( [1]: https://blogs.coreboot.org/blog/2019/08/22/gsoc-ghidra-firmware-utilities-wrap-up/ [2]: https://github.com/DSecurity/efiSeek Regards, Alex On Tue, Jan 25, 2022 at 6:35 PM Felix Singer <felixsin...@posteo.net> wrote: > Hello coreboot community, > > We are about to prepare our application for participating in Google > Summer of Code 2022 (FAQ [1]).
