The big question is what happens when EFI runs out of space. Matthew avoided the question by implementing the "just one record" policy. Was this because he has some specific knowledge about what happens, or does he just have an irrational[1] fear that the EFI implementation will handle this poorly? Without some tests on at least a couple of different platforms that show that EFI handles out of space conditions gracefully, I continue to have concerns. -Tony [1] Perhaps his fears are rational given how many other places he has found EFI not doing what we'd expect or want. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-doc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
