Provides a service to retrieve a pointer to the DXE Services Table.
Only available to DXE module types.
-
+
+ This library does not contain any functions or macros. It simply exports a global
+ pointer to the DXE Services Table as defined in the Platform Initialization Driver
+ Execution Environment Core Interface Specification. The library constructor must
+ initialize this global pointer to the DX Services Table, so it is available at the
+ module¡¯s entry point. Since there is overhead in looking up the pointer to the DXE
+ Services Table, only those modules that actually require access to the DXE Services
+ Table should use this library. This will typically be DXE Drivers that require GCD
+ or Dispatcher services.
