Description:
markdown
The PC BIOS is a dreadful thing. Poorly standardised and often poorly implemented, it has one job to do and frequently does it badly. The kernel and bootloaders are obliged to devote extensive sections of code to working around issues present in the BIOS, code and time that could have been better spent elsewhere. Everyone agrees that the PC BIOS is awful. So why, when Intel introduced the Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) as a replacement for it, did we not great it with open arms? This presentation will introduce EFI to the audience, covering the reasons for its existence and its benefits. It will then go on to discuss everything that's wrong with it, from poorly considered aspects of the specification to implementation flaws. Should it be necessary, audience members are advised to provide their own gin.
