Following the Hardware Info library, create the DxeHardwareInfoLib which implements the whole API capable of parsing heterogeneous hardware information. The list-like API grants callers a flexible and common pattern to retrieve the data. Moreover, the initial source is a BLOB which generalizes the host-to-guest transmission mechanism. The Hardware Info library main objective is to provide a way to describe non-discoverable hardware so that the host can share the available resources with the guest in Ovmf platforms. This change features and embraces the main idea behind the library by providing an API that parses a BLOB into a linked list to retrieve hardware data from any source. Additionally, list-like APIs are provided so that the hardware info list can be traversed conveniently. Similarly, the capability is provided to filter results by specific hardware types. However, heterogeneous elements can be added to the list, increasing the flexibility. This way, a single source, for example a fw-cfg file, can be used to describe several instances of multiple types of hardware. This part of the Hardware Info library makes use of dynamic memory and is intended for stages in which memory services are available. A motivation example is the PciHostBridgeLib. This library, part of the PCI driver populates the list of PCI root bridges during DXE stage for future steps to discover the resources under them. The hardware info library can be used to obtain the detailed description of available host bridges, for instance in the form of a fw-cfg file, and parse that information into a dynmaic list that allows, first to verify consistency of the data, and second discover the resources availabe for each root bridge.
