Hi,
seems that in edk2 implementation of efi there is a small violation of
EFI-spec. The UEFI_2_3_1_Errata_C_final.pdf, section "3.1.1 Boot Manager
Programming" says
"Each load option entry resides in a Boot#### variable or a Driver#### variable
where the #### is replaced by a unique option number in printable hexadecimal
representation using the digits 0–9, and the upper case versions of the
characters A–F (0000–FFFF)."
But in most places of EDK2 the characters are in lower-case. For example,
IntelFrameworkModulePkg\Library\GenericBdsLib\BdsMisc.c
BdsLibRegisterNewOption(..)
{
..
UnicodeSPrint (OptionName, sizeof (OptionName), L"Boot%04x",
TempOptionPtr[Index]);
..
Status = gRT->SetVariable (...)
...
}
Seems that there and in other places should be not "Boot%04x", but "Boot%04X"
('X' in uppercase). But need to say that I don't see any issues with that so
far..
