The only thing I can imagine that's worse than having weird vendor implementations of a standard that cause unexpected chaos is not having a standard to have any expectations in the first place, to have everyone doing whatever. The security benefits of having something that has a robust capable platform with a good test suites feels unmatched compared. Even if you don't know the code (and most are just edk2), at least there's a pretty well defined surface, whose expectations we can test. I'm open in principle to the idea that maybe UEFI isn't the right fit, that there's other things we should try. but if that answer is BIOS, i'm going to laugh my way out of this thread. Maybe not strictly required but man, the wild incredible janky world of weird antics required to get PXE or a add-on drive card running under bios: it was a piecemeal bodge through and through. I don't know what we see we even try to consider? |
