Commit Message

AKASHI Takahiro Nov. 28, 2018, 6 a.m. UTC
An EFI variable is nothing but a wrapper of a corresponding u-boot
environment variable (See efi_variable.c), but under the current
implementation, NON_VOLATILE attribute is not honored while u-boot
environment variables can be saved/restored in storage.

With this patch, the expected semantics will be mimicked by deleting
all the EFI variables *without* NON_VOLATILE attribute when loading
them from storage at boot time.

This patch would only be needed if we would store non-volatile
variables. So here you try to fix an error after it has happened instead
of stopping it from happening.

EFI variables are not really useful unless we can change them from the
operating system. Saving them via a driver that is not available at
operating system runtime does not lead anywhere.

So I would recommend not to follow this route anymore.

Best regards

Heinrich
