Apr 1, 2025April 2025 monthly summary for NVIDIA/edk2-nvidia. Delivered a robust SSIF Transaction Timeout Safeguard to address boot-time instability caused by slow BMC responses. Implemented an average-based timeout on SSIF transactions by tracking the last 10 timings and enforcing EFI_TIMEOUT when the average exceeds 1 second, preventing boot failures during critical boot phases.
