2.Built EFI version as vendor/product specific:


$ make bin-x86-64/10222000.efi bin-x86-64/10222001.efi bin-x86-64/10222625.efi.(computer vendor is 1022 ,device id is 2001).


$make bin-x86-64-efi/80861502(computer vendor is 8086,device id is 1502).

Subject:  [ipxe-devel] UEFI SCT patch



Hello,

I recently started working on our UEFI driver, and some of my changes 
may be useful for iPXE upstream.

So here is a first patch dealing with NIC independent code. Can you have 
a look and let me know if it needs some modifications.
It includes:
  - changes to be more UEFI compliant and pass SCT tests (most changes 
in efi_snp.c)
  - initial support for the driver health protocol
  - initial support for the firmware management protocol

You'll probably want to verify the additional checks for UEFI versions:
  - I added the DRIVER_EFI_SUPPORTED_VERSION protocol, as required by 
the UEFI spec.
" Provides information about the version of the EFI specification that a 
driver is following. This
protocol is required for EFI drivers that are on PCI and other plug in 
cards. "
- In efi_init.c I added a check for a minimal version of UEFI required 
to use the driver. I am not sure you want to keep that.
