/** @file When installed, the MP Services Protocol produces a collection of services that are needed for MP management. The MP Services Protocol provides a generalized way of performing following tasks: - Retrieving information of multi-processor environment and MP-related status of specific processors. - Dispatching user-provided function to APs. - Maintain MP-related processor status. The MP Services Protocol must be produced on any system with more than one logical processor. The Protocol is available only during boot time. MP Services Protocol is hardware-independent. Most of the logic of this protocol is architecturally neutral. It abstracts the multi-processor environment and status of processors, and provides interfaces to retrieve information, maintain, and dispatch. MP Services Protocol may be consumed by ACPI module. The ACPI module may use this protocol to retrieve data that are needed for an MP platform and report them to OS. MP Services Protocol may also be used to program and configure processors, such as MTRR synchronization for memory space attributes setting in DXE Services. MP Services Protocol may be used by non-CPU DXE drivers to speed up platform boot by taking advantage of the processing capabilities of the APs, for example, using APs to help test system memory in parallel with other device initialization. Diagnostics applications may also use this protocol for multi-processor. Copyright (c) 2006 - 2009, Intel Corporation.

APs can run either simultaneously or one at a time in sequence. This service supports both blocking and non-blocking requests. The non-blocking requests use EFI events so the BSP can detect when the APs have finished. This service may only be called from the BSP. This function is used to dispatch all the enabled APs to the function specified by Procedure. If any enabled AP is busy, then EFI_NOT_READY is returned immediately and Procedure is not started on any AP. If SingleThread is TRUE, all the enabled APs execute the function specified by Procedure one by one, in ascending order of processor handle number. Otherwise, all the enabled APs execute the function specified by Procedure simultaneously. If WaitEvent is NULL, execution is in blocking mode. The BSP waits until all APs finish or TimeoutInMicroSecs expires. Otherwise, execution is in non-blocking mode, and the BSP returns from this service without waiting for APs. If a non-blocking mode is requested after the UEFI Event EFI_EVENT_GROUP_READY_TO_BOOT is signaled, then EFI_UNSUPPORTED must be returned. If the timeout specified by TimeoutInMicroseconds expires before all APs return from Procedure, then Procedure on the failed APs is terminated. All enabled APs are always available for further calls to EFI_MP_SERVICES_PROTOCOL.StartupAllAPs() and EFI_MP_SERVICES_PROTOCOL.StartupThisAP(). If FailedCpuList is not NULL, its content points to the list of processor handle numbers in which Procedure was terminated. Note: It is the responsibility of the consumer of the EFI_MP_SERVICES_PROTOCOL.StartupAllAPs() to make sure that the nature of the code that is executed on the BSP and the dispatched APs is well controlled. The MP Services Protocol does not guarantee that the Procedure function is MP-safe. Hence, the tasks that can be run in parallel are limited to certain independent tasks and well-controlled exclusive code. EFI services and protocols may not be called by APs unless otherwise specified. In blocking execution mode, BSP waits until all APs finish or TimeoutInMicroSeconds expires. In non-blocking execution mode, BSP is freed to return to the caller and then proceed to the next task without having to wait for APs. The following sequence needs to occur in a non-blocking execution mode: -# The caller that intends to use this MP Services Protocol in non-blocking mode creates WaitEvent by calling the EFI CreateEvent() service. The caller invokes EFI_MP_SERVICES_PROTOCOL.StartupAllAPs(). If the parameter WaitEvent is not NULL, then StartupAllAPs() executes in non-blocking mode. It requests the function specified by Procedure to be started on all the enabled APs, and releases the BSP to continue with other tasks. -# The caller can use the CheckEvent() and WaitForEvent() services to check the state of the WaitEvent created in step 1. -# When the APs complete their task or TimeoutInMicroSecondss expires, the MP Service signals WaitEvent by calling the EFI SignalEvent() function. If FailedCpuList is not NULL, its content is available when WaitEvent is signaled. If all APs returned from Procedure prior to the timeout, then FailedCpuList is set to NULL. If not all APs return from Procedure before the timeout, then FailedCpuList is filled in with the list of the failed APs. The buffer is allocated by MP Service Protocol using AllocatePool(). It is the caller's responsibility to free the buffer with FreePool() service. -# This invocation of SignalEvent() function informs the caller that invoked EFI_MP_SERVICES_PROTOCOL.StartupAllAPs() that either all the APs completed the specified task or a timeout occurred.

If it is NULL, then execute in blocking mode. BSP waits until all APs finish or TimeoutInMicroSeconds expires. If it's not NULL, then execute in non-blocking mode. BSP requests the function specified by Procedure to be started on all the enabled APs, and go on executing immediately. If all return from Procedure or TimeoutInMicroSeconds expires, this event is signaled. The BSP can use the CheckEvent() or WaitForEvent() services to check the state of event. Type EFI_EVENT is defined in CreateEvent() in the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface Specification. @param[in] TimeoutInMicrosecsond Indicates the time limit in microseconds for APs to return from Procedure, either for blocking or non-blocking mode. Zero means infinity. If the timeout expires before all APs return from Procedure, then Procedure on the failed APs is terminated.
