With this we are now caching all EFI variables that we expose as
property in logind. Thus a client invoking GetAllProperties() should
only trgger a single read of each variable, but never repeated ones.
Obsoletes: #16190Fixes: #14828
The data from this EFI variable is exposed as dbus property, and gdbus
clients are happy to issue GetAllProperties() as if it was free. Hence
make sure it's actually free and cache LoaderConfigTimeoutOneShot, since
it's easy.
In SecureBoot mode this is probably not what you want. As your cmdline
is cryptographically signed like when using Type #2 EFI Unified Kernel
Images (https://systemd.io/BOOT_LOADER_SPECIFICATION/) The user's
intention is then that the cmdline should not be modified. You want to
make sure that the system starts up as exactly specified in the signed
artifact.
I want to use efivars.[ch] in proc-cmdline.c, but most of the efivars stuff is
not needed in basic/. Move the file from shared/ to basic/, but then move back
most of the higher-level functions to the new shared/efi-loader.c file.
