Struct HclCompatNvramQuirks

pub struct HclCompatNvramQuirks {
    pub skip_corrupt_vars_with_missing_null_term: bool,
}

“Quirks” to take into account when loading/storing nvram blob data.

Fields

skip_corrupt_vars_with_missing_null_term: bool

When loading nvram variables from storage, don’t fail the entire load process when encountering variables that are missing null terminators in their name. Instead, skip loading any such variables, and continue on with the load.

Context

Due to a (now fixed) bug in a previous version of Microsoft HCL, it was possible for non-null-terminated nvram variables to slip-through validation and get persisted to disk.

Enabling this quirk will allow “salvaging” the rest of the non-corrupt nvram variables, which may be preferable over having the VM fail to boot at all.
