This is an essential feature for booting OpenBSD. And I believe it is a requirement for several Linux distros as well. I don't think disabling this by default is a good idea. How much of that 31kB is due to recent improvements of the EFI loader support? I understand the desire to have a more complete EFI implementation, but if the consequence of that is that the EFI loader gets disabled by default on many boards I think we're throwing out the baby with the bathwater... > Signed-off-by: Maxime Ripard <maxime.rip...@free-electrons.com> > --- > lib/efi_loader/Kconfig | 2 +- > 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) > > diff --git a/lib/efi_loader/Kconfig b/lib/efi_loader/Kconfig > index d2b6327119b4..a80a914b2fe8 100644 > --- a/lib/efi_loader/Kconfig > +++ b/lib/efi_loader/Kconfig > @@ -1,7 +1,7 @@ > config EFI_LOADER > bool "Support running EFI Applications in U-Boot" > depends on (ARM || X86) && OF_LIBFDT > - default y > + default y if !ARCH_SUNXI > help > Select this option if you want to run EFI applications (like grub2) > on top of U-Boot.
