[PATCH v2] efi: Free malloc regions on exit


From: Alexander Graf
Subject: [PATCH v2] efi: Free malloc regions on exit
Date: Fri, 27 May 2016 16:19:07 +0200

When we exit grub, we don't free all the memory that we allocated earlier
for our heap region. This can cause problems with setups where you try
to descend the boot order using "exit" entries, such as PXE -> HD boot
scenarios.

Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <address@hidden>

---

v1 -> v2:

  - add comment explaining the number of regions
  - move nr of regions into a define
  - add warning if we exceed the number of freeable regions
  - reset region counter to 0 on fini
