Ard, what's going on with this one? I didn't see it resubmitted along with v3 of "efi/arm64: handle missing virtual mapping for UEFI System Table". Note that we already have a lock to serialize access to the UEFI variable services in the form of __efivars->lock, see drivers/firmware/efi/vars.c. It's a spinlock because of the context we may need to create variables in from efi_pstore_write(). -- Matt Fleming, Intel Open Source Technology Center -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-efi" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
