How about update SmbiosDxe to detect if SMBIOS table is installed in
Configuration Table in its entry point?
If it is not installed, no change to current behavior (install SmbiosProtocol
on an empty SMBIOS table).
If it is installed, install SmbiosProtocol with the SMBIOS table from
Configurati
Hi, Patrick,
Since BlSupportDxe does some very basic initialization for UEFI payload (EX:
Initialize PcdPciExpressBaseAddress dynamic PCD), and it needs to be done in
very early phase. So it is desired not to push the dispatching order by adding
more dependencies. Otherwise, drivers dispatch
Hi Maurice,

If you think Depex must be true, there should be

Hi, Patrick
In this patch I noticed that we changed the BlSupportDxe dependency from True
to gEfiSmbiosProtocolGuid.
Since BlSupportDxe is considered as critical for UEFI payload, and on the
other side SMBIOS driver could be optional in some case, do you think it is
better to handle it throug

As the SMBIOS tables are provided by the bootloader, install the
SMBIOS tables using the EfiSmbiosProtocol.
This fixes the settings menu not showing any hardware information, instead
only "0 MB RAM" was displayed.
Tests showed that
