New Features

  • UEFI
    • Add a test for sanity checking for the UEFI Boot path. - in progress

  • fwts: method test could give more advice on failures LP#1281739
  • UEFI
    • add subtype support for uefidump scan Media device path, Sub-Type 8 – Relative Offset Range

Process

  • creating rules for prefix usages, e.g. adding prefix [FEAT] to the LP bug title to denote new features or feature requests, adding prefix [FWTS-Live] for fwts-live related bugs etc.
  • revise bug reporting guideline to formally allow people file bugs against the FWTS project in LP directly
