.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
library implements access to EFI Variables via the EFI Runtime
|
|
Services.
|
|
All
|
|
.Vt "char *"
|
|
strings are converted to 16-bit UTF strings before passing
|
|
them to EFI.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn efi_variables_supported
|
|
returns non-zero if the current machine supports setting of EFI firmware
|
|
variables and the kernel support for doing so is present.
|
|
Otherwise zero is returned.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn efi_del_variable
|
|
deletes the EFI variable selected by
|
|
.Va guid
|
|
and
|
|
.Va name .
