[Feature]: Augment AdvancedLogger on ARM devices to allow retrieval of in-memory UEFI boot logs

Open singweeMsftGitHub opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

Feature Overview

AdvancedLogger allows retrieval of UEFI boot logs on x86 devices in two fashions:

  1. UefiLogs directory on EFI system partition or USB storage.
  2. In-memory logs.

On ARM devices, only the first method (UefiLogs directory method) is available.

This request is for feature parity between x86 and ARM devices.

Solution Overview

Would like ARM platforms to have the ability to retrieve in-memory UEFI logs, similar to x86 devices.

The varstore methodology of storing logs may need to be revisited.

Currently exploring the possibility of an in-memory solution for storing Advanced Logger data

This feature has been handled without the need for mu_plus changes. Closing this issue.
