E-1. Functions Listed In Alphabetic Order - Intel Extensible Firmware Interface Specification

This appendix contains two tables that list all EFI functions alphabetically. Table E-1 lists the
functions in pure alphabetic order. Functions that have the same name can be distinguished by the
associated service or protocol (column 2). For example, there are two "Flush" functions, one from
the Device I/O Protocol and one from the File System Protocol. Table E-2 orders the functions
alphabetically within a service or protocol. That is, column one names the service or protocol, and
column two lists the functions in the service or protocol.
