--- Comment #8 from Jessica Clarke <jrtc27@freebsd.org> ---
I doubt efihdr is the problem. It's likely that the call to BS->GetMemoryMap
the first time round the loop, which is guaranteed to be executed, reads an
uninitialised mm, and thus we have trivially provably guaranteed UB ("The v=
alue
of an object with automatic storage duration is used while it is
indeterminate"). What value it takes doesn't matter as the first time round=
 the
loop we use sz =3D 0 so, unless the memory map has 0 entries, it's guarante=
ed to
fit, but it must be initialised to something determinate.
