Subject: [PATCH v2] efi/efivars: Create efivars mount point via efivars abstraction
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2020 00:07:19 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200825160719.7188-1-jlee@suse.com> (raw)
This patch creates efivars mount point when active efivars abstraction
be set. It is useful for userland to determine the availability of efivars
filesystem.
v2:
Using efivars_kobject() helper instead of checking GetVariable or
GetNextVariable EFI runtime services. Because the efivarfs code could be
instantiated using a different efivars abstraction.
