This book provides an overview of modern boot firmware, including
the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) and its associated
EFI Developer Kit II (EDKII) firmware. The authors have each made
significant contributions to developments in these areas. The
reader will learn to use the latest developments in UEFI on modern
hardware, including open source firmware and open hardware designs.
The book begins with an exploration of interfaces exposed to
higher-level software and operating systems, and commences to the
left of the boot timeline, describing the flow of typical systems,
beginning with the machine restart event. Software engineers
working with UEFI will benefit greatly from this book, while
specific sections of the book address topics relevant for a general
audience: system architects, pre-operating-system application
developers, operating system vendors (loader, kernel), independent
hardware vendors (such as for plug-in adapters), and developers of
end-user applications. As a secondary audience, project technical
leaders or managers may be interested in this book to get a feel
for what their engineers are doing. The reader will find: An
overview of UEFI and underlying Platform Initialization (PI)
specifications How to create UEFI applications and drivers Workflow
to design the firmware solution for a modern platform Advanced
usages of UEFI firmware for security and manageability
