efi_loader: centralize messaging for efi_init_obj_list

2026-05-01T08:30:03Z

If efi_init_obj_list() fails we cannot use the UEFI sub-system. * Instead of having messages for this everywhere write an error message in efi_init_obj_list(). * Always use (ret != EFI_SUCCESS) when checking the return value of efi_init_obj_list(). * Remove the return code from the error message as it does not help users to understand which initialization went wrong.

console: add console_flush_stdin()

2026-04-22T20:23:49Z

Add a common helper console_flush_stdin() to drain all pending characters from stdin. This consolidates the open-coded while (tstc()) getchar() pattern that appeared in multiple places across the tree.

efi_loader: efi_console: support editable input fields

2025-10-26T10:15:21Z

When editing eficonfig "optional data" (typically cmdline arguments) it's useful to be able to edit the string rather than having to re-type the entire thing. Implement support for editing buffers to make this a whole lot nicer. Specifically, add support for moving the cursor with the arrow keys and End key as well as deleting backwards with the delete key.

efi: Rename END to EFI_DP_END

2025-05-25T09:27:18Z

This exported symbol has a very generic name. Rename it to indicate that it relates to EFI and device-paths. Fix checkpatch warnings related to use of multiple assignments. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass Suggested-by: Heinrich Schuchardt Signed-off-by: Heinrich Schuchardt

efi_loader: Separate device path into its own header

2025-05-25T09:27:18Z

These functions are useful for the EFI app. As a first step towards making these available outside lib/efi_loader, create a separate header file and include it where needed. Add proper comments to the functions, since many are missing at present. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass Reviewed-by: Heinrich Schuchardt

cmd: simplify eficonfig_init()

2025-04-19T10:45:48Z

As the system table already has pointers to the Simple Text Input and Output Protocols we can directly use these instead of calling OpenProtocol. Reviewed-by: Ilias Apalodimas Signed-off-by: Heinrich Schuchardt

menu: add support to check if menu needs to be reprinted

2024-11-04T22:41:38Z

This patch adds a new callback named need_reprint for menu. The need_reprint will be called before printing the menu. If the callback exists and returns FALSE, menu printing will be canceled. This is very useful if the menu was not changed. It can save time for serial-based menu to handle more input data. Signed-off-by: Weijie Gao Reviewed-by: Daniel Golle Tested-by: Daniel Golle
