Public bug reported:

I was trying to upgrade the driver via the software updater GUI.  It
failed and then I tried in the terminal with `apt install -f`, and it
failed again.

Can confirm that after the latest BIOS update from ASUS, I'm also able
to boot OK into Ubuntu without the dis_ucode_ldr option.

  - the setup is not new, has been working perfectly before (about 7

  System:
  - HW: ASUS Zenbook 14 UX433FN
  - Ubuntu 18.04, runing latest HWE, fully updated
  - grub(-pc), cryptsetup (crypttab entries for custom encrypted LUKS setup),

  Suspected/possible cause?:
  - recent intel-microcode package update
  - recent kernel package updates

  Steps taken:
  - tried to remove "splash quiet" from grub/kernel cmd line (also tried adding 
nosplash, noplymouth)
  - completely removed nvidia drivers (apt purge *nvidia*)
  - completely purged and reinstalled grub (grup-pc)
  - completely purged and reinstalled all kernels (headers, modules, image, ..)
  - toggle BIOS "fastboot" (now using OFF)
  - toggle UEFI SecureBoot (now using ON)
  - remove plymouth (apt remove *plymouth* , but the workaround is working with 
plymouth installed)

  Workaround:
  - so far, I'm only able to boot with non-Ubuntu kernel! 
(linux-image-liquorix-amd64)
  - which needs "splash" option ON
  - reinstall cryptsetup & update-grub (as suggested in 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1829620/comments/10 )

  I am not sure how to get you more debug info, as this setup has been
  working before, and it's a very eary boot-process bug, so I can't even
  access dmesg etc.

  WORKAROUND 1: disable intel microcode updates during boot
  From this bug: 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/intel-microcode/+bug/1759920
  1/ add the boot parameter: dis_ucode_ldr to /etc/default/grub

  WORKAROUND 2: downgrade (and hold) intel-microcode to older version from 
bionic/main
  apt install --reinstall intel-microcode=3.20180312.0~ubuntu18.04.1

  WORKAROUND 3: upgrade BIOS
  Asus has released updated BIOSes, which probably include the newest 
microcode. After upgrading workarounds 1,2 are not needed. 
  Please NOTE, unlike workarounds 1,2, BIOS upgrade is permanent and cannot be 
(easily) reverted.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1829620] Re: intel-microcode on ASUS makes kernel stuck during loading initramfs on bionic-updates, bionic-security

2019-08-12 Thread Lei Zhao
@bellengc, you'd need to open up your Terminal to make a more permanent
edit to your grub bootfile. Once you have the terminal open, type in:

cd /etc/default
sudo vi grub

This will open up a text editor in your terminal. You're going to be
making edits to your bootfile so it's a good idea to copy/paste a back
up of this file in another text file.

Near the top of the file you should see a line that looks like:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"

Go to this line, and after whatever commands are in there, add
"dis_ucode_ldr" to the end. If you haven't used vi, you'll need to first
hit "i" to go into edit mode, then start moving around and typing. When
you're done, you should have a line that looks like:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash dis_ucode_ldr"

To save your changes and exit the editor, type ":wq".

Now run the command "sudo update-grub". Now, next time you boot up, you
should be good to go.

Per the above, are we safe to grab the latest kernel upgrades now and do
away with the dis_ucode_ldr workaround in grub at this point?

Title:
  intel-microcode on ASUS makes kernel stuck during loading initramfs on
  bionic-updates, bionic-security

Status in intel-microcode package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in linux-hwe package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in linux-hwe-edge package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Description:
  - my system gets stuck at "Booting, Loading initramfs" (the first 2 lines of 
booting, after grub)
  - does not even show the enter cryptsetup passphrase
  - affected kernels:
  # apt list --installed |grep linux-signed
  WARNING: apt does not have a stable CLI interface. Use with caution in 
scripts.
  linux-signed-generic/bionic-security,bionic-updates,now 4.15.0.50.52 amd64 
[installed]
  linux-signed-generic-hwe-18.04/bionic-security,bionic-updates,now 
4.18.0.20.70 amd64 [installed]
  linux-signed-generic-hwe-18.04-edge/bionic-security,bionic-updates,now 
5.0.0.15.71 amd64 [installed]

  - the setup is not new, has been working perfectly before (about 7
  days since my last restart?)

  System:
  - HW: ASUS Zenbook 14 UX433FN
  - Ubuntu 18.04, runing latest HWE, fully updated
  - grub(-pc), cryptsetup (crypttab entries for custom encrypted LUKS setup),

  Suspected/possible cause?:
  - recent intel-microcode package update
  - recent kernel package updates

  Steps taken:
  - tried to remove "splash quiet" from grub/kernel cmd line (also tried adding 
nosplash, noplymouth)
  - completely removed nvidia drivers (apt purge *nvidia*)
  - completely purged and reinstalled grub (grup-pc)
  - completely purged and reinstalled all kernels (headers, modules, image, ..)
  - toggle BIOS "fastboot" (now using OFF)
  - toggle UEFI SecureBoot (now using ON)
  - remove plymouth (apt remove *plymouth* , but the workaround is working with 
plymouth installed)

  Workaround:
  - so far, I'm only able to boot with non-Ubuntu kernel! 
(linux-image-liquorix-amd64)
  - which needs "splash" option ON
  - reinstall cryptsetup & update-grub (as suggested in 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1829620/comments/10 )

  I am not sure how to get you more debug info, as this setup has been
  working before, and it's a very eary boot-process bug, so I can't even
  access dmesg etc.

  EDIT:

  Hypothesis:
  Only affects ASUS with newer (Kaby lake) Intel CPU, intel-microcode

  
  WORKAROUND 1: disable intel microcode updates during boot
  From this bug: 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/intel-microcode/+bug/1759920
  1/ add the boot parameter: dis_ucode_ldr to /etc/default/grub
  2/ update-grub

  WORKAROUND 2: downgrade (and hold) intel-microcode to older version from 
bionic/main
  apt install --reinstall intel-microcode=3.20180312.0~ubuntu18.04.1
