1.11.1.4. Variables

In UEFI, modular variables and global variables replace the static and global variables found in HWLIBs. Any variable with a file scope, or better, shall be prefixed by an m or g. There are no exceptions to this rule. The m prefix identifies a variable with module scope, while a g prefix identifies a global variable.
  • Example global variable: gThisIsAGlobalVariableName
  • Example modular variable: mThisIsaModuleVariableName
