Changes since v2:
- Addressed the comments given by Sami.
- Added Readme file with all cover letter information.
- Rebased to the latest upstream code.
Hardware Error Source Table (HEST)[1] and Software Delegated Exception Interface
(SDEI)[2] ACPI tables are used to acomplish firmware first error handling.This
patch series introduces a framework to build and install the HEST ACPI table
dynamically.
The following figure illustrates the possible usage of the dyanamic
generation of HEST ACPI table.

Figure: Firmware First Error Handling approach.
All the hardware error sources are added to HEST table as GHESv2[3] error source
descriptors. The framework comprises of following DXE and MM drivers:
- HestTableDxe:
Builds HEST table header and allows appending error source descriptors to the
HEST table. Also provides protocol interface to install the built HEST table.
- HestErrorSourceDxe & HestErrorSourceStandaloneMM:
These two drivers together retrieve all possible error source descriptors of
type GHESv2 from the MM drivers implementing HEST Error Source Descriptor
protocol. Once all the descriptors are collected HestErrorSourceDxe appends
it to HEST table using HestTableDxe driver.
