Browse Source 
It is useful to have a basic sanity check for EFI loader support. Add a
'bootefi hello' command which loads HelloWord.efi and runs it under U-Boot.

@@ -310,6 +310,20 @@ Removable media booting (search for /efi/boot/boota{a64,arm}.efi) is supported.
Simple use cases like "Plug this SD card into my ARM device and it just
boots into grub which boots into Linux", work very well.
Running HelloWord.efi
---------------------
You can run a simple 'hello world' EFI program in U-Boot.
Enable the option CONFIG_CMD_BOOTEFI_HELLO.
Then you can boot into U-Boot and type:
> bootefi hello
The 'hello world EFI' program will then run, print a message and exit.
