/** @file
This file declares EFI IDE Controller Init Protocol
+ The EFI_IDE_CONTROLLER_INIT_PROTOCOL provides the chipset-specific information to
+ the IDE bus driver. This protocol is mandatory for IDE controllers if the IDE devices behind the
+ controller are to be enumerated by an IDE bus driver.
+ There can only be one instance of EFI_IDE_CONTROLLER_INIT_PROTOCOL for each IDE
+ controller in a system. It is installed on the handle that corresponds to the IDE controller. An IDE
+ bus driver that wishes to manage an IDE bus and possibly IDE devices in a system will have to
+ retrieve the EFI_IDE_CONTROLLER_INIT_PROTOCOL instance that is associated with the
+ controller to be managed.
