conf: support stateless UEFI firmware Normally when an UEFI firmware is marked as read-only, an associated NVRAM file will be created. Some builds of UEFI firmware, however, wish to remain stateless and so will be read-only, but never have any NVRAM file. To represent this concept a 'stateless' tristate bool attribute is introduced on the <loader/> element. There are rather a large number of permutations to consider. With default firmware selection * <os/> => Historic default, no change * <os> <loader stateless='yes'/> </os> => Explicit version of historic default, no change * <os> <loader stateless='no'/> </os> => Invalid, bios is always stateless With manual legacy BIOS selection * <os> <loader>/path/to/seabios</loader> ... </os> => Historic default, no change * <os> <loader stateless='yes'>/path/to/seabios</loader> ... </os> => Explicit version of historic default, no change * <os> <loader stateless='no'>/path/to/seabios</loader> ... </os> => Invalid, bios is always stateless With manual UEFI selection * <os> <loader type='pflash'>/path/to/edk2</loader> ... </os> => Historic default, no change * <os> <loader type='pflash' stateless='yes'>/path/to/edk2</loader> ... </os> => Skip auto-filling NVRAM / template * <os> <loader type='pflash' stateless='no'>/path/to/edk2</loader> ... </os> => Explicit version of historic default, no change With automatic firmware selection * <os firmware='bios'/> => Historic default, no change * <os firmware='bios'> <loader stateless='yes'/> </os> => Explicit version of historic default, no change * <os firmware='bios'> <loader stateless='no'/> </os> => Invalid, bios is always stateless * <os firmware='uefi'/> => Historic default, no change * <os firmware='uefi'> <loader stateless='yes'/> </os> => Skip auto-filling NVRAM / template * <os firmware='uefi'> <loader stateless='no'/> </os> => Explicit version of historic default, no change Reviewed-by: Michal Privoznik <mprivozn@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel P.

Only pflash loader type permits NVRAM
