Last time I looked, there was no BSD SMB library/codebase for use. No BSD SMB library, no TianoCore library. There is at least one, maybe more closed-source commerical SMB/CIFS libs that may be usable, but not for TianoCore, only for IBVs/OEMs. UEFI has has TFTP and HTTP (but no HTTPS). UEFI 2.5 even has some HTTP helper APIs, though I haven't looked into them yet, maybe they can help. UEFI has TCP/UDP, so you can write your own non-SMB solution. IMO, probably easier to port another non-SMB protocol to UEFI than deal with MS specs/patents and TianoCore/GPL roadblocks. Unless you have a BSD SMB library in C available. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ edk2-devel mailing list edk2-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/edk2-devel
