46 the pointer to the GUID from the Guid
47 field of EFI_HII_PACKAGE_GUID_HEADER.
48 Otherwise, it must be NULL.
49
50 @param Package Points to the package referred to by the notification.
51
52 @param Handle The handle of the package
53 list which contains the specified package.

140 This function updates the existing package list (which has the
141 specified Handle) in the HII databases, using the new package
142 list specified by PackageList. The update process has the
143 following steps: Collect all the package types in the package
144 list specified by PackageList. A package type consists of the
145 Type field of EFI_HII_PACKAGE_HEADER and, if the Type is
146 EFI_HII_PACKAGE_TYPE_GUID, the Guid field, as defined in
147 EFI_HII_PACKAGE_GUID_HEADER. Iterate through the packages within
148 the existing package list in the HII database specified by
149 Handle. If a package's type matches one of the collected types collected
150 in step 1, then perform the following steps:
151 - Call any functions registered with the notification type
152 REMOVE_PACK.
153 - Remove the package from the package list and the HII
154 database.
155 Add all of the packages within the new package list specified
156 by PackageList, using the following steps:
157 - Add the package to the package list and the HII database.
