Where can I read about how flash storage / fault tolerant writes are supposed to work? Like spare area, reclaim, the PCDs we had to adjust recently for secure boot, and so on. The series is currently Greek to me, I need to educate myself. This is a complex area I think. For example the NvVars stuff in OVMF only got clear(er) to me when I spent half a day on Michael Chang's patch and the code it touches -- it's completely non-intuitive that OVMF has a memory buffer as flash storage (with fault tolerant writes) which is snooped on by another component that writes to a file during the boot phase whatever it hears. Or some such. (I could easily be confused still...) Thanks!
