As requested, I've split this out of the larger EFI_LOADER patchset.
This adds two things that the later EFI_LOADER patchset depends on:
1) UUID/GUID support 2) %ls UTF string support, in particular UTF-16. In the UEFI API, all strings are UTF-16
I had started converting this over to using c11 + u"string" literals, instead of using -fshort-wchar + L"string" literals and %ls, but I ran into two problems:
1) we lose out on the printf (and friends) va_arg type checking if we roll our own custom printf fmt modifier for UTF-16 strings 2) and worse than that, we have to disable -Wformat warnings
So given that we have a significant downside for not just using -fshort-wchar, and I don't think any really strong argument against, I am back to thinking that we should just go with -fshort-wchar.
The current patchset has a Kconfig option to opt-in to -fshort-wchar, which EFI_LOADER selects. If the consensus is to enable -fshort-wchar for everything, I'll drop the kconfig part and make it unconditional.
The current version of this patchset and efi-loader patchset are at
https://github.com/robclark/u-boot.git vsprintf
and
https://github.com/robclark/u-boot.git enough-uefi-for-shim-2
I'll resend the enought-uefi-for-shim-2 patchset after I have a chance to figure out fs-test.sh and add tests for fs_readdir().
