Description
Feature Overview
Reduce or remove the requirement that DXE architectural protocols must be produced for the DXE Core. Allow an alternative mechanism using Rust services.
Solution Overview
- Suggest services required if Rust services are used
- The service APIs and platform dependencies to produce the service
- How DXE architectural protocol compatibility is maintained for C drivers that depend on the protocols
