Didn't you remove this in v2?

This does not work as expected:

=> setenv -e -guid 0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef -bs ARGONAUT hello world
=> printenv -e
OsIndicationsSupported:
     EFI_GLOBAL_VARIABLE_GUID: BS|RT, DataSize = 0x8
PlatformLang:
     EFI_GLOBAL_VARIABLE_GUID: NV|BS|RT, DataSize = 0x6
PlatformLangCodes:
     EFI_GLOBAL_VARIABLE_GUID: BS|RT, DataSize = 0x6
RuntimeServicesSupported:
     EFI_GLOBAL_VARIABLE_GUID: BS|RT, DataSize = 0x2

Neither do I see an error nor is the variable set.

The patch increases the size of u-boot.bin by 2216 bytes for qemu-arm64.
Tom is always asking me how we can stop the size increase in the UEFI
sub-system.

Why do we need this patch? This functionality is already available via
the UEFI shell.

Just open the UEFI shell and run

Shell> setvar ARGONAUT -guid 01234567-89ab-cdef-0123-456789abcdef -rt
=L"Hello world"
Shell> exit

Best regards

Heinrich
