FYI for Add-in Hardware Developers

• See UEFI Driver Developer Resources with EDK II Support UEFI driver development by independent hardware vendors (IHV), including the UEFI Driver Wizard and UEFI Driver Writers Guide (DWG).
• Both EDK and EDK II contain a Developer’s UEFI Emulation (DuetPkg) environment to aid in development of UEFI drivers for add-in hardware. One of the limitations of the NT32 emulation environment is the inability to communicate directly with hardware. This is of particular concern to add-in hardware developers (IHVs), who are developing UEFI drivers for their hardware devices.
