The idea is that UEFI isn't necessarily recommended as an app development platform. Especially since you don't have control over the drivers and interface implementations, and they're quite inefficient in...

@raccog Thanks! > I plan on slowly adding more documentation where I think it would be beneficial in the crate. Should I make a single pull request for each documentation...

@timrobertsdev does this mean we should replace all `extern "efiapi"` declarations in the crate with `extern "C"`, and everything will just work correctly? Or is this workaround just for the...

@timrobertsdev Ah, I've realized there's a little problem which stops us from switching everything over to `extern "C"`. The reason we've introduced the `efiabi` calling convention was to avoid issues...

> Would an ELF binary be capable of calling these functions (or any boot service functions, I guess)? I had assumed that boot services would be exited by the time...

Hi! If you (or anyone else) is interested in adding this protocol to `uefi-rs`, contributions are welcome :) I'd recommend checking out the contributing instructions section on [how to add...

Hi! Usually, we represent such buffers as `*mut u8`, mutable arrays of bytes. If they have any alignment requirements (e.g. the spec says they should be 64-byte aligned), we also...

@necauqua since the original issue author didn't reply, I'm going to guess they're not actively working on this feature anymore? > Although I am unsure about how to non-manually test...

Maybe using [the builder pattern](https://rust-unofficial.github.io/patterns/patterns/creational/builder.html), but the builder is initially passed in a raw buffer of bytes where it will build the device path? Alternatively, we could get rid of...

Hello. Definitely, `uefi-rs` aims to support UEFI systems on all possible architectures! The core library and our [build/test runner script](https://github.com/rust-osdev/uefi-rs/blob/master/uefi-test-runner/build.py) already has support for multiple architectures (x86_64 + AArch64). The...
