gnu: system: Disable EFI pstore backend by default
Disabling the EFI pstore backend is expected to reduce the chances of unaware
users running into issues with UEFI and failing to boot their Guix Systems.
This commit disables one of the backends for the persistent storage driver
'pstore' in the Linux kernel. In particular, we disable the backend which stores
the data in EFI variable storage in UEFI NVRAM.
More information about the pstore system:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/ABI/testing/pstore
https://docs.kernel.org/admin-guide/pstore-blk.html
https://blogs.oracle.com/linux/post/pstore-linux-kernel-persistent-storage-file-system
This change reduces writes to UEFI to reduce the chances of it wearing out or
malfunctioning for other reasons, with the goal of preventing situations where
the EFI variable storage is full and cannot take new variables. This is known to
cause "Could not prepare Boot variable: No space left on device" errors on
computers with some UEFI implementations which are susceptible to such problems,
typically on relatively older machines. The user is confronted by the issue at
the later stages of Guix system reconfiguration, when the new boot entry is
created. It may be difficult to recover from because the exact cause depends on
UEFI. Sometimes it is enough to remove dumps from efivars, but sometimes the
storage will remain full permanently with no way to reclaim space.
Users may still enable the backend by changing the option via the kernel
command-line arguments, either in the Guix system configuration or in GRUB.
The above is my summary of what was previously discussed in guix-help mailing
list: <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-guix/2025-01/msg00173.html>.
