Along those same lines, if the support level of 0, 1 or 2, there should be no
output anyway because it should not be interactive.

Subject: [edk2] gST->ConOut is NULL when we launch Shell
ShellPkg Maintainers,
At the shell entry point, the following code is there. When shell is
launched, all consoles / Con sole splitter should be initialized. So
gST->ConOut should be initialized by that time. But due to some problem ,if
gST->ConOut is not initialized, there may be a chance of exception. It
would be good if we check the validity of gST->ConOut before calling the
ClearScreen().
if (PcdGet8(PcdShellSupportLevel) > 3) {
return (EFI_UNSUPPORTED);
}
//
// Clear the screen
//
Status = gST->ConOut->ClearScreen(gST->ConOut);
if (EFI_ERROR(Status)) {
return (Status);
Thanks
Siva
