Subject: [PATCH 7/7] efi/libstub: Add efi_snprintf() to construct wide strings
Date: Sun, 6 Sep 2026 15:08:25 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260906130817.1151961-16-ardb@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260906130817.1151961-9-ardb@kernel.org>
The native EFI character set is UTF-16 (or in practice, UCS-2).
Implement efi_snprintf() to construct UTF-16 strings using printf style
templates. This will be used in a subsequent patch to set the
LoaderDevicePartUUID EFI variable.
