Without this change we get: error: equality comparison with extraneous parentheses when building on XCODE5. Signed-off-by: Mike Beaton

MdeModulePkg/VariablePolicyLib: Use wildcard character constant

2024-07-22T11:52:02+00:00

Makes the `#` character used for comparison against wildcard characters in `CHAR16` strings to be prefixed with `L` so the character is treated as a wide character constant. Signed-off-by: Michael Kubacki

MdeModulePkg/VariablePolicy: Add more granular variable policy querying

2023-10-31T14:40:50+00:00

Introduces two new APIs to EDKII_VARIABLE_POLICY_PROTOCOL: 1. GetVariablePolicyInfo() 2. GetLockOnVariableStateVariablePolicyInfo() These allow a caller to retrieve policy information associated with a UEFI variable given the variable name and vendor GUID. GetVariablePolicyInfo() - Returns the variable policy applied to the UEFI variable. If the variable policy is applied toward an individual UEFI variable, that name can optionally be returned. GetLockOnVariableStateVariablePolicyInfo() - Returns the Lock on Variable State policy applied to the UEFI variable. If the Lock on Variable State policy is applied to a specific variable name, that name can optionally be returned. These functions can be useful for a variety of purposes such as auditing, testing, and functional flows. Also fixed some variable name typos in code touched by the changes.

MdeModulePkg: Update code to be more C11 compliant by using func

2023-04-10T14:19:57+00:00

__FUNCTION__ is a pre-standard extension that gcc and Visual C++ among others support, while __func__ was standardized in C99. Since it's more standard, replace __FUNCTION__ with __func__ throughout MdeModulePkg. Signed-off-by: Rebecca Cran Reviewed-by: Michael D Kinney Reviewed-by: Ard Biesheuvel

MdeModulePkg/VariablePolicyLib: Fix runtime panic in ValidateSetVariable()

2020-11-27T01:19:34+00:00

The current variable policy is allocated by AllocatePool(), which is boot time only. This means that if you do any variable setting in the runtime, the policy has been freed. Ordinarily this isn't detected because freed memory is still there, but when you boot the Linux kernel, it's been remapped so the actual memory no longer exists in the memory map causing a page fault. Fix this by making it AllocateRuntimePool(). For SMM drivers, the platform DSC is responsible for resolving the MemoryAllocationLib class to the SmmMemoryAllocationLib instance. In the SmmMemoryAllocationLib instance, AllocatePool() and AllocateRuntimePool() are implemented identically. Therefore this change is a no-op when the RegisterVariablePolicy() function is built into an SMM driver. The fix affects runtime DXE drivers only.

MdeModulePkg: Define the VariablePolicyLib

2020-11-17T01:03:43+00:00

https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2522 VariablePolicy is an updated interface to replace VarLock and VarCheckProtocol. Add the VariablePolicyLib library that implements the portable business logic for the VariablePolicy engine. Also add host-based CI test cases for the lib.
