Hi Heinrich,

I've run into a problem with mainline U-Boot. Debian unstable (distro kernel) fails to boot after commit b02a707152, "efi_loader: enable UEFI variables at runtime". Kernel boots fine before that commit. Boot log is attached. Looks like it is failing in a workqueue that is calling runtime services; but I haven't dug in yet.

I'm not doing anything exotic with this build. Mainline U-Boot, mainline TFA, and booting the kernel with an up-to-date dtb.

Hello Grant,

this is the patch you are needing:

https://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2020-July/421193.html [PATCH 1/1] efi_loader: efi_current_var after SetVirtualAddressMap

Best regards
