Check for efi dump files with `efi-check` or remove efi dump files with `efi-clear`.

Project description

# efi-monitor A simple utility to handle efi dump files. These variables look something like /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/dump-type0-11-1-1645468022-C-cfc8fc79-be2e-4ddc-97f0-9f98bfe298a0 and cause me to get a message on boot that “Non-volatile memory is almost full” and blocks directly booting.

## Usage

`bash sudo su pip install efi-monitor efi-check # will list dump files if they exist efi-clear # will delete dump files if they exist `

### Usage Example

`bash user@machine:~$ efi-check /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/dump-type0-11-1-1645468022-C-cfc8fc79-be2e-4ddc-97f0-9f98bfe298a0 /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/dump-type0-10-1-1645468022-C-cfc8fc79-be2e-4ddc-97f0-9f98bfe298a0 /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/dump-type0-9-1-1645468022-C-cfc8fc79-be2e-4ddc-97f0-9f98bfe298a0 /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/dump-type0-8-1-1645468022-C-cfc8fc79-be2e-4ddc-97f0-9f98bfe298a0 /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/dump-type0-7-1-1645468022-C-cfc8fc79-be2e-4ddc-97f0-9f98bfe298a0 /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/dump-type0-6-1-1645468022-C-cfc8fc79-be2e-4ddc-97f0-9f98bfe298a0 /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/dump-type0-5-1-1645468022-C-cfc8fc79-be2e-4ddc-97f0-9f98bfe298a0 /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/dump-type0-4-1-1645468022-C-cfc8fc79-be2e-4ddc-97f0-9f98bfe298a0 /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/dump-type0-3-1-1645468022-C-cfc8fc79-be2e-4ddc-97f0-9f98bfe298a0 /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/dump-type0-2-1-1645468022-C-cfc8fc79-be2e-4ddc-97f0-9f98bfe298a0 /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/dump-type0-1-1-1645468022-C-cfc8fc79-be2e-4ddc-97f0-9f98bfe298a0 user@machine:~$ sudo su [sudo] password for user: root@machine:~# efi-clear `
