The ChaosKey driver implements the UEFI driver model, and so it is
not guaranteed that any controllers will be attached to this driver
unless it is connected explicitly. On many platforms today, this is
taken care of by the ConnectAll() call that occurs in the BDS, but
this is not something we should rely on.
So add a protocol notification event that will attempt to connect
the ChaosKey on each USB I/O protocol instance that carries the
expected vendor and product IDs. This still relies on the USB host
controllers to be connected by the platform, which is typically the
case (given that a USB keyboard is required to interrupt the boot)
On platforms where USB is not connected at all by default, it is really
not up to a third party driver to meddle with this, and so relying on
the USB host controllers to have been connected non-reursively is the
best we can do. Note that third party drivers registered via Driver####
can set a 'reconnect all' flag if needed to mitigate this.

Unfortunately, the previous approach of connecting a short-form USB device
path containing the ChaosKey's VID/PID turned out not to be reliable in
practice (it doesn't work at all on ThunderX2 with AMI firmware)
So instead, we have to rely on USB I/O protocols having been instantiated
by the DXE core. This is what typically happens, given that USB keyboards
are also exposed via USB I/O protocol instances. The only difference with
a non-fast [ConnectAll()] boot is that those USB I/O protocol instances
are not connected further automatically, but it is reasonable to expect
that the handles themselves have been instantiated.
Platforms that do not produce those USB I/O handles would not be able to
offer the ability to interrupt the boot or enter the menu using a USB
keyboard, so this is rather rare in practice. Also, if such platforms do
exist, it is not up to this 3rd party driver to override this policy and
enumerate the entire USB hierarchy.
So this means we need to call UsbHwrngDriverBindingSupported() directly
to check whether the USB I/O protocol in question has the right VID/PID.
If that succeeds, there is really no point in using ConnectController(),
so just call UsbHwrngDriverBindingStart() directly to connect the driver
to the controller.
Actually there is a point in using gBS->ConnectController().
1) You make it impossible for the platform to override the drivers choice. The
philosophy of EFI has alway been that the drivers should not cary policy and
the platforms should cary policy. This inverts that.
2) I’m not sure it is well defined behavior by UEFI to NOT call
gBS->ConnectController(). I took a quick look at the DXE Core and the
gBS->ConnectController() is not doing any book keeping, other than managing the
precedence rules, but it seems like it would be legal to add something in the future.
+ Mike in case I’m off on this one.
The idea is really that by loading this driver, you are indicating that
you want it to connect to any supporting controller and produce the RNG
protocol, despite the platform policy. The UEFI driver model simply
isn't a great fit here, since the RNG is never a boot target and you
just want it to connect all the time.
It is a shame my first approach did not work: it attempted to connect
the short form USB class device path carrying the VID and PID of this
controller as the remaining device path on each detected USB host
controller, similar to how USB keyboards are connected in the upstream
BDS code.
But yes, ConnectController() should also work - it will invoke the
Supported() method again, and call Start(). I did check that doing this
directly amounts to the same in terms of bookkeeping, but I agree that
this could potentially change at some point. However, the question is
whether connecting the controller to another, higher priority driver is
the right thing to do in this case. It is really hard to answer that
question in general terms.
Also It would like be a good idea to have a PCD to turn on/off this feature.
Fair enough.
Thanks,
