I realise this comment is just being moved, but it's confusing. It refers to a state that is only visible if you're already aware of 2 or 3 facts not visible at this point.

The consplitter is one example of where multiple consoles may be available, but it really applies to any situation where multiple device paths are provided. So it is not that the function is *entered* with *Interface non-null, but that any additional iterations of the loop will clobber *Handle whereas *Interface will only be set in the first iteration. I will go ahead and apply this with a clarified comment. _______________________________________________ edk2-devel mailing list edk2-devel@lists.01.org https://lists.01.org/mailman/listinfo/edk2-devel

We take the first protocol implementation
The InitializeConsolePipe() routine takes care to only set its output argument *Interface if it is not already set, to prevent overwriting the ConSplitter interface pointer that may have already been assigned. However, the associated OUT argument 'Handle' is clobbered by the subsequent unnecessary LocateDevicePath() invocation, which should similarly be made dependent on whether *Interface has been set already.
