Chapter/Appendix
Description
19. EFI Byte Code Virtual Machine
Defines the EFI Byte Code virtual processor and its instruction
set. It also defines howEBC object files are loaded into
memory, and the mechanism for transitioning from native code to
EBC code and back to native code. The information in this
document is sufficient to implement an EFI Byte Code
interpreter, an EFI Byte Code compiler, and an EFI Byte Code
linker.
A.
GUID and Time Formats
Explains format of EFI GUIDs (Guaranteed Unique Identifiers).
B.
Console
Describes the requirements for a basic text-based console
required by EFI-conformant systems to provide communication
capabilities.
C. Device Path Examples
Examples of use of the data structures that defines various
hardware devices to the EFI boot services.
D. Status Codes
Lists success, error, and warning codes returned by EFI
interfaces.
E.
32/64-Bit UNDI Specification
This appendix defines the 32/64-bit H/W and S/W Universal
Network Driver Interfaces (UNDIs).
F.
Using the Simple Pointer Protocol
This appendix provides the suggested usage of the Simple
Pointer Protocol.
G. Using the EFI SCSI Pass Thru
Protocol
This appendix provides an example on howthe SCSI Pass Thru
Protocol can be used.
H. Compression Source Code
The C source code to an implementation of the EFI Compression
Algorithm.
I.
Decompression Source Code
The C source code to an implementation of the EFI
Decompression Algorithm.
J.
EFI Byte Code Virtual Machine
Opcode Summary
A summary of the opcodes in the instruction set of the EFI Byte
Code Virtual Machine.
K.
Alphabetic Function List
Lists all EFI interface functions alphabetically.
References
Lists all necessary and/or useful specifications, web sites, and
other documentation that is referenced in this EFI Specification.
Glossary
Briefly describes terms defined or referenced by this
specification.
Index
Provides an index to the key terms and concepts in the
specification.
