Method and device for executing driving program of peripheral equipment by unified extensible firmware interface (UEFI) kernel

2013 
The embodiment of the invention discloses a method and device for executing a driving program of peripheral equipment by a unified extensible firmware interface (UEFI) kernel. By the method and the device, the required driving program can be loaded quickly, so that the starting speed of a computer system is increased. The method comprises the following steps of: distributing an inlet address for the driving program to be distributed according to a preset distribution rule; storing the driving program to be distributed into a corresponding inlet address table according to the inlet address; and when the driving program needs to be loaded, searching a target driving program according to a preset calculation rule. Compared with the prior art, the method has the advantages that not all the driving programs need to be loaded. Different inlet addresses are distributed for the driving programs according to the preset distribution rule; when a certain driving program needs to be loaded, the inlet address where the target driving program is positioned is calculated according to the preset calculation rule, and the target driving program is extracted from the corresponding inlet, so that the needed driving program can be quickly searched; and the starting speed of the computer system is increased.
