Hi Volodymyr, Add my comments below.
Thanks, Eric -----Original Message----- From: Volodymyr Sharovar [mailto:volodymyrsharo...@gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, August 21, 2014 6:38 AM To: edk2-devel@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [edk2] Driver with HII hangs on machines with EFI 2.00 specification revision I get an assertion error when loading a driver with HII stuff on machines with EFI 2.00 specification revision in uefi shell with load command. Specifically the error I got was: ASSERT c:\myworkspace\MdeModulePkg\Library\UefiHiiServicesLib\UefiHiiServicesLib.c(100) : !EFI_ERROR (Status) If loading the driver through the rom image the machines just hangs. [[[Eric]]] From your error message, it is caused because system can't find the Hii Config Routing Protocol. The HII infrastructure is new added in UEFI 2.1, so if the system before UEFI 2.1, driver can find this protocol. Through my testing this assertion happens even before DriverEntry is called. My question is how does it work? [[[Eric]]] Before the driver entry is called, the library used by this driver must be constructed, this error is raised when do library contruct. As well as I understand that HII was introduced in EFI 2.1 specification revision. So how should the cases be handled when the driver is loaded in revisions of EFI that are lower then 2.1? [[[Eric]]] in this case, I suggest you do driver build with the same system version, else, just like this case, some protocol maybe not find and driver can't run. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Slashdot TV.
