+ The EfiFvbEraseCustomBlockRange() function erases the specified range in the firmware
+ volume index by Instance. If Instance is larger than the max FVB number, StartLba or
+ LastLba index is larger than the last block of the firmware volume, StartLba > LastLba
+ or StartLba equal to LastLba but OffsetStartLba > OffsetLastLba, this function return
+ the status code EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER.
- @param[in] Instance The FV instance.
- @param[in] StartLba The starting logical block index to be erased.
- @param[in] OffsetStartLba Offset into the starting block at which to
- begin erasing.
- @param[in] LastLba The last logical block index to be erased.
- @param[in] OffsetLastLba Offset into the last block at which to end erasing.
+ @param[in] Instance The FV instance to be operated.
+ @param[in] StartLba The starting logical block index to be erased.
+ @param[in] OffsetStartLba Offset into the starting block at which to
+ begin erasing.
+ @param[in] LastLba The last logical block index to be erased.
+ @param[in] OffsetLastLba Offset into the last block at which to end erasing.
- @retval EFI_EFI_SUCCESS Range was erased
- @retval EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER invalid parameter
- @retval EFI_UNSUPPORTED Range can not be erased
+ @retval EFI_EFI_SUCCESS Successfully erase custom block range
+ @retval EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER Invalid parameter. Instance is larger than the max FVB number.
+ @retval EFI_UNSUPPORTED Firmware volume block device has no this capability.
