Extend EFI support in BSDs
Bring automated firmware update to BSDs
UEFI/EFI support covers boot integrity and as such has become a structural part of Linux, Windows, and other OS-es. There are a number of relevant operating systems however that are not able to benefit from this technical capability just yet. This project would fill that gap by extending EFI support to OpenBSD, NetBSD, and DragonflyBSD. This will allow proper hardware initialization as well as additional security features within those open source operating systems.
