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

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