Yes, this is expected behavior. The messages are to encourage code owners to move from using the VariableLockRequestToLock() interface to the VariablePolicy interface so that the RTL interface may be removed in the future.
The correct solution is to find the offending code and submit a patch that updates it to not use RTL. My guess is that this is the location that you’re hitting, if you’re using the edk2 BdsDxe: https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/blob/4bf2a5b045ebf8b5e90d9210ad5190699bddb592/MdeModulePkg/Universal/BdsDxe/BdsEntry.c#L723 I can try to submit a patch next week (I’m slammed this week) to port this over to VariablePolicy. Note, however, that the messages are not affecting the functionality. They’re purely nag messages. - Bret From: Laszlo Ersek<mailto:ler...@redhat.com> Sent: Thursday, March 25, 2021 12:04 PM To: Bret Barkelew<mailto:bret.barke...@microsoft.com> Cc: devel@edk2.groups.io<mailto:devel@edk2.groups.io>; m...@semihalf.com<mailto:m...@semihalf.com> Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: [edk2-devel] !!!
