### Building a driver
There are three types of UEFI executables: application, boot service
driver, and runtime driver. All of Rust's UEFI targets default to
producing applications. To build a driver instead, pass a
[`subsystem`][linker-subsystem] linker flag with a value of
`efi_boot_service_driver` or `efi_runtime_driver`.
Example:
```toml
# In .cargo/config.toml:
[build]
rustflags = ["-C", "link-args=/subsystem:efi_runtime_driver"]
```
