Subject: [PATCH 2/2] riscv: Restart via EFI runtime services when available
Date: Mon, 15 Jun 2026 16:28:22 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260615-efi_reset_shutdown-v1-2-9414edcbbab0@meta.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260615-efi_reset_shutdown-v1-0-9414edcbbab0@meta.com>
From: Atish Patra <atishp@meta.com>
Firmware-preferred reset and EFI capsule update support requires reset
via EFI runtime services rather than direction M-mode firmware invocation
via SBI. Unlike poweroff, restart mechanism is directly controlled from
machine_restart function though.
Prefer the EFI runtime ResetSystem() service for restart when UEFI
runtime services are available.
