I've been learning something every day for more than half a century and now, thanks to this thread, I have a good grasp of the fuel systems of current heavies. But a couple of loose ends.

Are the B-777's high pressure fuel pumps gear type or swash plate piston ?
If gear type how is their output varied to control engine thrust/n?

Cannot conceive that there could only be one HP pump per engine.
