This new field will be shown as a driver's name in "efitool drivers"
command.

We can have drivers supplied by U-Boot and drivers supplied by an EFI
binary that we recently installed via the bootefi command.

A driver installed via the bootefi command will not have allocated
memory for the extra fields.

So you cannot use the name field in your "efitool drivers" command.

Best regards

You raised a couple of questions to me.

I assume that what you mention here is a UCLASS_EFI driver.

What's the problem is;
efi_add_driver() adds EFI_DRIVER_BINDING_PROTOCOL with
*efi_driver_binding_extended_protocol* interface, which is NOT compatible
with EFI_DRIVER_BINDING_PROTOCOL.
On the other hand, for example, in your efi_selftest_controller test
a test driver is set up by installing EFI_DRIVER_BINDING_PROTOCOL
with EFI_DRIVER_BINDING_PROTOCOL interface.

So we have no way to distinguish the two cases(handles) and cannot
deal with them properly.

There is no good example of driver of such kind.
I don't know how we can retrieve a meaningful "driver name."

Any suggestion?

Correct. It is allowable to add private fields to a protocol. EDK2 does
the same. But we cannot make any assumptions about the private fields here.

The UEFI spec does not foresee any name field.

The interesting information is: on which handle did the driver install
which protocol.

This information could be gathered by looping over all protocols on all
handles and looking for an OpenProtocolInformation where the driver is
the controller.

For me it would be fine if we leave that to a later patch.

I misunderstood something here, but anyhow,

Edk2's shell does get a driver's name by using COMPONENT_NAME2_PROTOCOL,
and we'd better do the same way.
So "<NULL>" will be printed with my patch for now.
