The Firmware Volume Protocol provides file-level access to the firmware volume.
Each firmware volume driver must produce an instance of the
Firmware Volume Protocol if the firmware volume is to be visible to
the system during the DXE phase. The Firmware Volume Protocol also provides
mechanisms for determining and modifying some attributes of the firmware volume.

ReadFile() is used to retrieve any file from a firmware volume

format defined in Code Definitions: PI Firmware File Format.
If the input value of Buffer==NULL, it indicates the caller is
requesting only that the type, attributes, and size of the

case, the following occurs:
- BufferSize is returned with the size that is required to
successfully complete the read.
- The output parameters FoundType and *FileAttributes are

- The returned value of *AuthenticationStatus is undefined.
If the input value of Buffer!=NULL, the output buffer is
specified by a double indirection of the Buffer parameter. The
input value of *Buffer is used to determine if the output
buffer is caller allocated or is dynamically allocated by
ReadFile(). If the input value of *Buffer!=NULL, it indicates
the output buffer is caller allocated. In this case, the input
value of *BufferSize indicates the size of the

WriteFile() is used to write one or more files to a firmware
volume. Each file to be written is described by an
EFI_FV_WRITE_FILE_DATA structure. The caller must ensure that
any required alignment for all files listed in the FileData
array is compatible with the firmware volume. Firmware volume
capabilities can be determined using the GetVolumeAttributes()
call. Similarly, if the WritePolicy is set to
EFI_FV_RELIABLE_WRITE, the caller must check the firmware volume
capabilities to ensure EFI_FV_RELIABLE_WRITE is supported by the
firmware volume. EFI_FV_UNRELIABLE_WRITE must always be
supported. Writing a file with a size of zero
(FileData[n].BufferSize == 0) deletes the file from the firmware
volume if it exists. Deleting a file must be done one at a time.
Deleting a file as part of a multiple file write is not allowed.

Retrieves information about the next file in the firmware volume store
that matches the search criteria.
GetNextFile() is the interface that is used to search a firmware
volume for a particular file. It is called successively until
the desired file is located or the function returns
EFI_NOT_FOUND. To filter uninteresting files from the output,
the type of file to search for may be specified in FileType. For
example, if *FileType is EFI_FV_FILETYPE_DRIVER, only files of
this type will be returned in the output. If *FileType is
EFI_FV_FILETYPE_ALL, no filtering of file types is done. The Key
parameter is used to indicate a starting point of the search. If
the buffer *Key is completely initialized to zero, the search
re-initialized and starts at the beginning. Subsequent calls to
GetNextFile() must maintain the value of *Key returned by the
immediately previous call. The actual contents of *Key are
implementation specific and no semantic content is implied.

beginning of the firmware volume, the entire buffer must be cleared to zero. Other
than clearing the buffer to initiate a new search, the caller must not modify the data in
the buffer between calls to GetNextFile().
@param FileType Pointer to a caller-allocated
EFI_FV_FILETYPE. The GetNextFile() API can
filter its search for files based on the
value of the FileType input. A *FileType
input of EFI_FV_FILETYPE_ALL causes
GetNextFile() to search for files of all
types. If a file is found, the file's type
is returned in FileType. *FileType is not
modified if no file is found.
@param NameGuid Pointer to a caller-allocated EFI_GUID. If a
matching file is found, the file's name is
returned in NameGuid. If no matching file is
found, *NameGuid is not modified.
@param Attributes Pointer to a caller-allocated
EFI_FV_FILE_ATTRIBUTES. If a matching file

Attributes is not modified. Type
EFI_FV_FILE_ATTRIBUTES is defined in
