Uboot implements the simple file protocol of ext4 file system, already. However, the driver is embedded in Uboot. Is it possible to build a standalone ext4 file system driver for UEFI, in the format of efi, just like the helloworld.efi. So I can use the UEFI shell command: load to load the driver and access a ext4 partition.
Thanks
Best Regards

No, we do not support anything like that. You'll need to look at the
other existing UEFI filesystem drivers instead. There's at least one,
as of a few years ago.
