/** @file
This file defines the GUID and data structure used to pass information about
a variable store mapped on flash (i.e. a MMIO firmware volume) to the modules
that consume that information such as the DXE and MM UEFI variable drivers.
The HOB described in this file is currently optional. It is primarily provided
to allow a platform to dynamically describe the flash information to environments
such as Standalone MM that cannot access the prior method using dynamic PCDs.
Even for platforms that use Standalone MM, if the information is only stored
statically such as with FixedAtBuild PCDs, the HOB is not required.
Every point of consumption in this package that uses the PCDs will first check
for the HOB and use its value if present.
Early modules such as the PEI UEFI variable driver might also consume this
information. For modules such as these, that execute early in the boot flow,
at least two approaches are possible depending on platform design.
1. If the information in the HOB exactly matches the information in the PCDs,
(i.e. the HOB values are set using the PCD values), let the driver read
the information from the PCD and produce the HOB later in boot.
2. Produce the HOB very early in boot. For example, the earliest point the HOB
is currently consumed is in FaultTolerantWritePei. Note that FaultTolerantWritePei
produces gEdkiiFaultTolerantWriteGuid which is a dependency for VariablePei.
Therefore, attaching a NULL class library to FaultTolerantWritePei with a
constructor that produces the HOB will guarantee it is produced before the first
point of consumption as the constructor is executed before the module entry point.
