7.2.3 Adding Driver Health Protocol Feature
The Driver Health Protocol provides services allowing a UEFI Driver to express the health status of a controller, return status messages associated with the health status, perform repair operations and request configuration changes required to place the controller in a usable state. This protocol is required only for devices that may be in a bad state which can be recovered through a repair operation or a configuration change. If a device can never be in a bad state, or a device can be in a bad state for which there is no recovery possible, this protocol should not be installed.
There are no EDK II library functions to help install the Driver Health Protocol. Instead, the UEFI Driver that requires this feature must install the Driver Health Protocol using the UEFI Boot Service
InstallMultipleProtocolInterfaces()
. Example 92, below, expands Example 91, above, and adds a Driver Health Protocol instance to ImageHandle, the same handle on which the Driver Binding Protocol is installed.#include <Uefi.h>
