Hi Ard, I think this registration protocol would be a new protocol in the MdeModulePkg and the protocol would be produced by the DXE Core. The emulation drivers, including EBC would consume this protocol to register their services. This removes the need for the DXE Core to do a Register Protocol Notify event for the emulator protocol. The DXE Core would build a table of registered services, so it can quickly loop through them to check if an emulator supports a specific PE/COFF image or not.
