Tim: I agree that HII resource section for the same purpose. But now, most HII drivers still uses EDKII implement way to access VFR and UNI in source code. To support this usage model in the binary image, BaseTools will generate a binary file to record each offset for VFR and UNI packages in EFI image. Then, it can be integrated into FFS file in BIOS image. If so, the tool can parse BIOS image to get HII package data and analyze them.

I don't think I've seen this discussed anywhere. It seems to me that a better course of action would have been to solve the problem with linking the resources in the method defined in the UEFI specification. Tim
