System and method for pre-boot dynamic video rendering and graphics interpretation by a virtual graphics browser

摘要

An information handling system is configured, during a pre-extensible firmware interface initialization phase of the information handling system, to learn capabilities of components of the information handling system, create a hand-off block for storage of a virtual graphical browser firmware volume payload, and store learned capabilities of the components of the information handling system in the hand-off block. During a driver execution environment phase, the information handling system may retrieve the learned capabilities of the components of the information handling system stored in the hand-off block, publish learned capabilities retrieved from the hand-off block, retrieve the virtual graphics browser firmware volume payload stored in the hand-off block, and dispatch a virtual graphics browser learning driver and a virtual graphics browser interpreter driver based on retrieved virtual graphics browser firmware volume payload. The virtual graphics browser learning driver may learn capabilities of a graphics library associated with the information handling system, and publish learned capabilities of the graphics library. The virtual graphics browser interpreter driver may interpret a user interface input based on published learned capabilities and published learned capabilities of the graphics library, and draw user interface elements on a screen based on interpreted user interface input.
