efi_get_variable() always stores an extra zero byte after the output data. When the returned data size matches the output buffer size, the extra zero byte is stored past the end of the output buffer.

Why do you need size if hexstr is zero terminated?

{

• memset(mem, 0, count/2);

• u8 data;
• int nibble;
• char ch;
• int i, k;

• do {

• int nibble;
  

• memset(mem, 0, size);

• *mem = 0;
  

• for (i = 0; i < size; i += 1) {

People are used to reading ++i or i++ for simple incrementation.

• data = 0;
  

• for (k = 0; k < 2; k += 1) {
  

Why use nested loops? That neither makes the code easier to read nor faster.

Why all the changes if you still do not throw an error if hexstr has an uneven number of nibbles?

Best regards
