You can use PEI Firmware Volume PPI or Firmware Volume2 Protocol to access content from firmware.

https://uefi.org/sites/default/files/resources/PI_Spec_1_7_final_Jan_2019.pdf contain the information you need, the section you need read to get the information is Volume 3, Section 3.3.1 PEI Firmware Volume PPI and Section 3.4.1 Firmware Volume2 Protocol.

I suggest you to read Section 3 Firmware Storage Code Definitions carefully so you can know the storage format.

If you just need sample and just want to support you project quickly, you can search edk2 repository and edk2-platform repository for it.

Hello,

i was wondering if there is a way to embed somehow in the build process of
the edk2 a custom binary and then be able to load it (read it) from a UEFI
driver from C code.
