Thank You ! You are right. My pointer was incorrect and your correction fixed
it Aaron. Next question. I'm trying to use CopyMem.Can I do something like this
? It's not working right. Type, Length and Handle in my custom struct are
exactly the same types as in (from Smbios.h)
typedef struct { EFI_SMBIOS_TYPE Type; UINT8 Length;
EFI_SMBIOS_HANDLE Handle;} EFI_SMBIOS_TABLE_HEADER;
My custom struct:
#pragma pack(1)
typedef struct _GENERAL_INFORMATION{ UINT8 Type; UINT8
Length; UINT16 Handle; UINT16 MemberIdentifier; UINT8
MemberName; UINT8 Field_A UINT8 Field_B;
UINT8 Field_C; UINT8 FIeld_D, UINT8
Field_E;} GENERAL_INFORMATION; #pragma pack()
GENERAL_INFORMATION foo;
CopyMem ((VOID *)&foo, (VOID *)&SmbiosRecord, SmbiosRecord->Length);

return EFI_SUCCESS;
Please see my code below.
If you’ll notice, I’m passing
In EFI_SMBIOS_HANDLEInSmbiosHandle = 0xFFFE; EFI_SMBIOS_TYPE Type=160;
Which is as the header file “Smbios.h”and the protocol implementation
“SmbiosDxe.c”
Instruct. According to my understanding,GetNext should return the address of the
First table whose Type=160. I used SmbiosView.efiand saw that indeed such a
table
with Type=160 is present. I tried other validTypes too, though and the result
is the same.
What I expect to be returned is the EFI_STATUSof “Success” and the correct
Address for the SmbiosRecord with type=160.I’m getting neither. I’m getting an
EFI_STATUS
Code of 0xB58FBD02. At the very least, Iwould expect EFI_NOT_FOUND. According
To the protocol, this weird 0xB58FBD02 shouldnot be returned for EFI_STATUS.
I did search archives however, and it seemsthat others have had problems with
Smbios GetNext,
With no resolution that I saw.
The following two paths are the Smbios Protocolimplementation in the latest
EDK2 repo:
C:\edk2\MyWorkspace\MdeModulePkg\Universal\SmbiosDxe\SmbiosDxe.c
C:\edk2\MyWorkspace\MdeModulePkg\Universal\SmbiosDxe\Smbios.h
There is also a shell tool
C:\edk2\MyWorkspace\ShellPkg\Library\UefiShellDebug1CommandsLib\Sm
biosView which does not use the Smbios protocolat all. It seems to use a
backdoor approach of
internal data structures. I wonder why ?Is this because the Smbios protocol
doesn’t work ?
We would like to use the Smbios Protocolbecause it’s simple and provides what
we need.
We would like to avoid the backdoor approachembraced by Smbiosview if possible.
Can someone comment on my issue ? Am I usingGetNext incorrectly ?
