As the subject suggested, this patch set allows any efi variable to be volatile or non-volatile as UEFI specification describes.
With my efishell patch[1] with patch #2, you can try as follows: => efi setvar PlatformLang en => efi setvar -nv BootNext =H0200 => env save BootNext will be preserved across reboot, while PlatformLang not. Please note that, currently, setvar command does not automatically append NON_VOLATILE attribute, while UEFI specification expects that PlatformLang be non-volatile, you'd better also specify -nv for this variable here. Patch #2/#3 depend on my efishell patch[1]. Patch #4 depends on my BootNext patch[2]. Patch[1] and [2] have not been merged yet, so patch#1 can be applied on its own.
