[PATCH] efi: Override runtime supported mask from a EFI variable if present

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



For debugging purposes, allow the runtime override mask to be set from a
EFI variable if one exists. For instance, the RT supported mask can be
set to 0xfffd to disable the SetTime() runtime service, and enable all
others:

  echo -ne "\x7\0\0\0\xfd\xff" \
    > /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/LinuxRtMaskOverride-eb66918a-7eef-402a-842e-931d21c38ae9
