Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes an information handling system that consists of a Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) and a management controller. The management controller establishes a communication channel with the UEFI and provides a memory path for a driver associated with a specific operation. The UEFI then retrieves the requested driver from its memory using the provided memory path and loads it. The UEFI then executes the loaded driver and reports the execution status back to the management controller.


Original Abstract Submitted

An information handling system includes a Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) and a management controller. The management controller establishes a communication channel with the UEFI, and provides a memory path associated with a driver associated with an operation to be performed in the UEFI. Based on the memory path, the UEFI receives the requested driver from a memory associated with the UEFI, and loads the requested driver. The UEFI executes the loaded requested driver, and provides an execution status for executed driver to the management controller.
