LocateDevicePath (
IN EFI_GUID *Protocol,
IN OUT EFI_DEVICE_PATH **DevicePath,
OUT EFI_HANDLE *Device
);
Parameters
Protocol Theprotocoltosearchfor. TypeEFI_GUID is defined in the
InstallProtocolInterface()
function description.
DevicePath On input, a pointer to a pointer to the device path. On output, the device
path pointer is modified to point to the remaining part of the device
path—that is, when the function finds the closest handle, it splits the
device path into two parts, stripping off the front part, and returning the
remaining portion. Type EFI_DEVICE_PATH is defined in “Related
Definitions.”

in the InstallProtocolInterface() function description.
