In the current implementation, EFI_SIMPLEFILE_SYSTEM_PROTOCOL is always
installed to all the partitions even if some of them may house no file
system.

With this patch, that protocol will be installed only if FAT file system
exists.

Before your patch we could use any supported file system (e.g. EXT2). I
see no need for a restriction to FAT. You could compare the string to
"unsupported":

No. As far as you want to stick to compliance to UEFI specification,
"fat" is the only file system supported by UEFI.

In the case of device path node VenHw() there is a direct rule in the
spec indicating how it should be rendered. I have not seen anything in
the UEFI spec saying that you should not support file systems besides
FAT. So there is no compliance issue. I would be reluctant to remove an
existing capability of U-Boot.

See section 13.3. It says,
         The file system supported by the Extensible Firmware Interface is
         based on the FAT file system.

Any comments here?

The spec does not say: Thou shalt not support other file systems.



if (!strcmp(fs_get_type_name(), "unsupported"))
        return 0;

But wouldn't it be preferable to have a function to access fs_type (in
fs/fs.c) directly instead of a string representation?

Agree, but there is no direct function in fs/fs.c.
I'm reluctant to invent a new function just for this purpose.

In that case we should compare to a string that is defined as constant
in fs.h.

Are you saying that we should add new macros in fs.h?
All the file system names are initialized in fs/fs.c now.

Otherwise we should convert the string "unsupported" of fstypes[] into a
constant in fs.h so that we can be sure we are using the same value.
