Function Documentation

FlushPendingRuntimeVariableCacheUpdates()

EFI_STATUS FlushPendingRuntimeVariableCacheUpdates

(

VOID

)

Copies any pending updates to runtime variable caches.

Return values

EFI_UNSUPPORTED	The volatile store to be updated is not initialized properly.
EFI_SUCCESS	The volatile store was updated successfully.

SynchronizeRuntimeVariableCache()

EFI_STATUS SynchronizeRuntimeVariableCache	(	IN VARIABLE_RUNTIME_CACHE *	VariableRuntimeCache,
		IN UINTN	Offset,
		IN UINTN	Length
	)

Synchronizes the runtime variable caches with all pending updates outside runtime.

Ensures all conditions are met to maintain coherency for runtime cache updates. This function will attempt to write the given update (and any other pending updates) if the ReadLock is available. Otherwise, the update is added as a pending update for the given variable store and it will be flushed to the runtime cache at the next opportunity the ReadLock is available.

Parameters

[in]	VariableRuntimeCache	Variable runtime cache structure for the runtime cache being synchronized.
[in]	Offset	Offset in bytes to apply the update.
[in]	Length	Length of data in bytes of the update.

Return values

EFI_SUCCESS	The update was added as a pending update successfully. If the variable runtime cache ReadLock was available, the runtime cache was updated successfully.
EFI_UNSUPPORTED	The volatile store to be updated is not initialized properly.
