The UVP-Tools-Linux package provides a collection of tools that allow developers to interact with UEFI variables and test the UVP feature on Linux systems. These tools include uvp, uvpinfo, uvptool, and uvpdump.
The uvp command is used to interact with UEFI variables. It can be used to create, delete, or query variables, as well as set their values. This command is essential for testing the persistence of variables across reboots.
The uvpinfo command provides information about the UEFI Variable Persistence (UVP) feature on the system. It displays details such as the UVP version, the number of UEFI variables, and the UVP status.
The uvptool command is used to test the UVP feature by resetting the system and verifying that variables persist across reboots. This command is crucial for ensuring that UVP is working as expected on Linux systems.
The uvpdump command is used to dump the contents of UEFI variables to a file. This can be helpful for debugging purposes or for analyzing the data stored in variables.
Overall, UVP-Tools-Linux provides developers with the necessary tools to debug and test the UEFI Variable Persistence feature in Linux systems. By using these tools, developers can ensure that variables persist across reboots and that the UVP feature is functioning correctly.
In conclusion, UVP-Tools-Linux is a valuable toolset for developers working with UEFI variables and the UEFI Variable Persistence feature in Linux systems. With its collection of commands and utilities, UVP-Tools-Linux simplifies the process of debugging and testing UVP, ensuring that variables persist across reboots and system settings are saved effectively.
