Hi,
The embedded 'nvram' command of loader.efi (-CURRENT, r286279) fails to list
EFI variables with the following message :
??=<error retrieving variable>
Find attached a patch that brings the following :
- Fix variables enumeration (to initiate the search, the 'VariableName'
argument of GetNextVariableName() should be a pointer to NULL, not a NULL
pointer [1])
- Add a '-v' (verbose) option to display variables' contents (now hidden by
default, as the output is un-readable with too many variables)
- Add the ability to specify a variable name to restrict display to variable(s)
matching this name only
- Print GUID along with each variable name
- Simplify contents' rendering by *always* printing them in hex (most of the
contents were un-readable in ascii)
Best Regards,
Ganael.
