Subject: [PATCH v2 09/10] efi/libstub: Add efi_snprintf() to construct wide strings
Date: Wed, 9 Sep 2026 13:55:40 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260909115530.1924665-21-ardb+git@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260909115530.1924665-12-ardb+git@google.com>
From: Ard Biesheuvel <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.
