https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=251025 xtouqh@icloud.com changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |xtouqh@icloud.com --- Comment #1 from xtouqh@icloud.com --- Looking at the error message and breakdown_name() in usr.sbin/efivar/efivar.c, this rather looks like "efivar cannot write to EFI variables which have a '-' in their name". If you look at the code linked below, the issue is quite obvious -- we use strrchr() to find the end of GUID, and in this case it's not correct: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/head/usr.sbin/efivar/efivar.c?revision=366165&view=markup#l87 This needs a better way of distinguishing between GUID and var name. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.help
