/** @file Large Variable Write Lib This library is used to store large data sets using the UEFI Variable Services. At time of writting, most UEFI Variable Services implementations do not allow more than 64KB of data to be stored in a single UEFI variable. This library will split data sets across multiple variables as needed. In the case where more than one variable is needed to store the data, an integer number will be added to the end of the variable name. This number will be incremented for each variable as needed to store the entire data set. The primary use for this library is to create binary compatible drivers and OpROMs which need to work both with TianoCore and other UEFI PI implementations. When customizing and recompiling the platform firmware image is possible, adjusting the value of PcdMaxVariableSize may provide a simpler solution to this problem.

Each VariableName is unique for each VendorGuid. VariableName must contain 1 or more characters.

If DataSize is zero, then LockVariable must be FALSE since a variable that does not exist cannot be locked. @param[in] Data The contents for the variable. @retval EFI_SUCCESS The firmware has successfully stored the variable and its data as defined by the Attributes. @retval EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER An invalid combination of LockVariable, name, and GUID was supplied, or the DataSize exceeds the maximum allowed. @retval EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER VariableName is an empty string. @retval EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER DataSize is zero and LockVariable is TRUE @retval EFI_OUT_OF_RESOURCES Not enough storage is available to hold the variable and its data. @retval EFI_OUT_OF_RESOURCES The VariableName is longer than 1018 characters @retval EFI_DEVICE_ERROR The variable could not be retrieved due to a hardware error. @retval EFI_WRITE_PROTECTED The variable in question is read-only. @retval EFI_WRITE_PROTECTED The variable in question cannot be deleted. @retval EFI_NOT_FOUND The variable trying to be updated or deleted was not found. **/ EFI_STATUS EFIAPI SetLargeVariable ( IN CHAR16 *VariableName, IN EFI_GUID *VendorGuid, IN BOOLEAN LockVariable, IN UINTN DataSize, IN VOID *Data ); #endif // _LARGE_VARIABLE_WRITE_LIB_H_
