# r-efi - UEFI Reference Specification Protocol Constants and Definitions
## CHANGES WITH 4.2.0:
* Bump required compiler version to: rust-1.68
* New Protocols: debugport, debug-support, driver-diagnostics2,
mp-services, shell, shell-dynamic-command,
shell-parameters, udp-4, udp-6
* Use const-generics instead of ZSTs to represent dynamic trailing
members in C structs.
* The `examples` feature has been renamed to `native` (a backwards
compatible feature is left in place).
* Add support for riscv64.
* Use the official rust `efiapi` calling convention. This was
stabilized with rust-1.68.

## CHANGES WITH 4.1.0:
* New Protocols: device-path-{from,to}-text, ip4, ip6, managed-network,
rng, service-binding, tcp4, tcp6, timestamp
* `ImageEntryPoint` is now correctly annotated as `eficall`.
* `Time` now derives `Default`.
* Fix nullable function pointers to use `Option<fn ...>`.
* Function prototypes now have an explicit type definition and can be
used independent of their protocol definition.
* The new `rust-dep-of-std` feature option allows pulling in r-efi
into the rust standard library. It prepares the crate workspace to
be suitable for the standard library. It has no use outside of this.
* Adopt the MIT license as 3rd licensing option to allow for
integration into the rust compiler and ecosystem.

## CHANGES WITH 4.0.0:
* Convert all enums to constants with type-aliases. This is an API
break, but it is needed for spec-compliance. With the old enums, one
couldn't encode all the possible values defined by the spec.
Especially, the vendor-reserved ranges were unable to be encoded in
a safe manner. Also see commit 401a91901e860 for a detailed
discussion.
API users likely need to convert their CamelCase enum usage to the
new UPPER_CASE constants.
* Convert all incomplete types to empty arrays. This affects all
structures that use trailing unbound arrays. These are actually ABI
incompatible with UEFI, since rust represents raw-pointers to such
types as fat-pointers. Such arrays have now been converted to empty
arrays, which should still allow accessing the memory location and
retaining structure properties, but avoids fat-pointers.
This is an API break, so you might have to adjust your accessors of
those trailing structure members.
* Implement `Clone` and `Copy` for most basic structures. Since these
are used as plain carriers, no higher clone/copy logic is needed. It
should be clear from the project-description, that only basic UEFI
compatibility is provided.
* Add the console-control vendor protocol. This protocol allows
controlling console properties. It is not part of the UEFI
specification, but rather defined by the TianoCore project.
* Add a new example showing how to use the GOP functions to query the
active graphics device.

## CHANGES WITH 3.2.0:
* Add new protocols: DiskIo, DiskIo2, BlockIo, DriverBinding
* Extend the Device-Path payload structure and add the HardDriveMedia
payload.
* Add HII definitions: A new top-level module `hii` with all the basic
HII constants, as well as a handful of HII protocols (hii_database,
hii_font, hii_string)
* Document new `-Zbuild-std` based cross-compilation, serving as
official rust alternative to cargo-xbuild.

## CHANGES WITH 3.1.0:
* Add the basic networking types to `r_efi::base`. This includes MAC
and IP address types.
* Add the EFI_SIMPLE_NETWORK_PROTOCOL definitions and all required
constants to make basic networking available.
* Add a new uefi-cross example, which is copied from upstream rustc
sources, so we can test local modifications to it.

## CHANGES WITH 3.0.0:
* Fix a missing parameter in `BootServices::locate_device_path()`. The
prototype incorrectly had 2 arguments, while the official version
takes 3. The final `handle` argument was missing.
This is an API break in `r-efi`. It should have a limited impact,
since the function was mostly useless without a handle.
Thanks to Michael Kubacki for catching this!
* Adjust the `device_path` parameter in a bunch of `BootServices`
calls. This used to take a `*mut c_void` parameter, since the device
path protocol was not implemented.
Since we have to bump the major version anyway, we use this to also
fix these argument-types to the correct device-path protocol type,
which has been implemented some time ago.

## CHANGES WITH 2.2.0:
* Provide `as_usize()` accessor for `efi::Status` types. This allows
accessing the raw underlying value of a status object.
* The project moved to its new home at: github.com/r-efi/r-efi

## CHANGES WITH 2.1.0:
* Add the graphics-output-protocol.
* Expose reserved fields in open structures, otherwise they cannot be
instantiated from outside the crate itself.
Contributions from: David Herrmann, Richard Wiedenhöft, Rob Bradford
- Tübingen, 2019-03-20
## CHANGES WITH 2.0.0:
* Add a set of UEFI protocols, including simple-text-input,
file-protocol, simple-file-system, device-path, and more.
* Fix signature of `BootServices::allocate_pages`.
Contributions from: David Rheinsberg, Richard Wiedenhöft, Tom Gundersen
- Tübingen, 2019-03-01
## CHANGES WITH 1.0.0:
* Enhance the basic UEFI type integration with the rust ecosystem. Add
`Debug`, `Eq`, `Ord`, ... derivations, provide converters to/from the
core library, and document the internal workings.
* Fix `Boolean` to use `newtype(u8)` to make it ABI compatible to UEFI.
This now accepts any byte value that UEFI accetps without any
conversion required.

## CHANGES WITH 0.1.1:
* Feature gate examples to make `cargo test` work on non-UEFI systems
like CI.
