It's just a different name for the same thing. > In fact, I have already imported relevant kernel code into U-Boot > and it now works perfectly with my experimental UEFI secure boot patch, > but see the total size (and numbers) of files imported is quite big. > I wonder who is willing to maintain them: ... > 37 files changed, 6409 insertions(+), 11 deletions(-) Well, if you compare for example against libressl-portable , then this git repository has 180 files with more than 20,000 lines. We are adding a lot of functionality, and anyone who wants to use this will have to pay the price. But this is what I mentioned before: I think the kernel code has already been tweaked with an eye on resource consumption, while standard public libraries have not. The kernel code may be big, but I would be surprised if there are smaller and leaner alternatives with similar quality? As for who is willing to maintain it: I have no idea. Usually it turns out to be the original implementoer / who pushed the code upstream into U-Boot.
