VariableNameSize is the returned buffer size. GetNextVariable should behavior correct if it is bigger than SMM communication buffer or less than string size of VariableName.

set old variable to IN_DELETED_TRANSITION -> check if reclaim is needed(If yes, do reclaim) -> add new variable -> set old variable to DELETED.
2. Update UpdateVariable() to correctly handle the case "both ADDED and IN_DELETED_TRANSITION variable are present", and delete both old ADDED and IN_DELETED_TRANSITION variable when deleting or updating variable.
3. Update VariableServiceGetNextVariableName() to return the valid IN_DELETED_TRANSITION variable if only IN_DELETED_TRANSITION variable is present.

The Variable PEI and RuntimeDxe drivers were using the attribute 'HeaderLength' of
EFI_FIRMWARE_VOLUME_HEADER without checking if a Firmware Volume Header was existing at
the base address.
In case the Firmware Volume Header does not exist or is corrupted, the attribute 'HeaderLength'
is a non valid value that can lead to a non valid physical address when accessing produces an
access error.

Add PcdEmuVariableNvStoreReserved which allows a platform to declare a
memory address for the EMU Variable driver to use for the NV variable
store. The EMU Variable driver will look to see if the contents of
this memory range appear to be a valid variable store, and if so
the EMU driver will use the variables.
If a platform can preserve a memory range across system resets, this
feature can allow the EMU Variable driver's NV variable store to be
preserved across a system reset.
In the default case this PCD will be set as a fixed PCD with a value
of 0. In this case this new feature should have minimal impact on
the EMU Variable driver. (Perhaps a slight increase in code size,
but no functional difference is expected.)

1. record the distance of two neighboring VAR_ADDED type variables rather than the offset of each variable. As the field recording this info is UINT16 width, the latter causes in IA32/X64 platform, it can only cache those variables from offset 0 to offset 2^16; in IPF platform, from offset 0 to offset 2^18(extend the scope by left-shift the offset two bits).
when taking the former algorithm, the max range of caching variable is from offset 0 to offset 122*(2^16)

2. Boot time variable reclaim issue is caused by incorrect flash layout. Platform integrator should ensure that the size of variable region must less than FTW spare space size.
3. Per UEFI Specification, variables of attribute HARDWARE_ERROR_RECORD are guaranteed to have its own storage space size.original implementation doesn’t meet this requirement

[Root Cause]
The root cause is that in FindVariable function, original code logic will traverse all variable stored in variable volatile/non-volatile area. If the non-variable area is full and Linux sets a new variable, the caller of GetNextVariablePtr will get the address of next memory block, but this block doesn't be reserved as RUNTIME attribute. Therefore its corresponding page translation table doesn't exist and causes linux kernel panic.
Note that, Variable Pei driver has not such issue as the flash area is accessed in pre-os environment.All page table entries are filled. The access to next memory block will not cause such issue.

2. modify the method of getting right FVB protocol interface. move the notification event of FVB installation into variable driver. and also move ExitBootService event into variable driver.
3. use EFI_FVB2_WRITE_STATUS flag to distinct whether the FVB protocol supports writing operation or not.Currently, DxeCore installs FVB which has ~EFI_FVB2_WRITE_STATUS(that is, disable write) attrbiute. FvbRuntimeDxe driver should provide a full FVB protocol, which returns EFI_FVB2_WRITE_STATUS attribute to signify itself provide writable FVB protocol. So other modules which need write data by FVB protocol can locate it correctly.
