Subject: [PATCH 0/2] efi: cosmetic patches for the error messages when loading certificates
Date: Thu, 12 Dec 2019 17:38:10 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191212093812.10518-1-jlee@suse.com> (raw)

When loading certificates list from EFI variables, the error
message and efi status code always be emitted to dmesg. It looks
ugly:

[    2.335031] Couldn't get size: 0x800000000000000e
[    2.335032] Couldn't get UEFI MokListRT 
[    2.339985] Couldn't get size: 0x800000000000000e
[    2.339987] Couldn't get UEFI dbx list

This cosmetic patch set moved the above messages to the error
handling code path. And, it adds a function to transfer EFI status
code to string to improve the readability of debug log. The function
can also be used in other EFI log.

Lee, Chun-Yi (2):
  efi: add a function for transferring status to string
  efi: show error messages only when loading certificates is failed
