[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1409750] Re: grub2/kernel EFI firware size interface
This change is now in vivid as well: grub2 (2.02~beta2-21) unstable; urgency=medium . [ Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre ] * Fix overlap check in check_blocklists for load_env (backported patch from upstream commit 1f6af2a9; LP: #1311247). . [ Steve McIntyre ] * Add support for running a 64-bit Linux kernel on a 32-bit EFI (closes: #775202). . [ Colin Watson ] * Use mtmsr rather than mtmsrd in ppc64el-disable-vsx.patch, since the VSX Available bit is in the lower half of the MSR anyway, and mtmsrd faults on 32-bit systems (closes: #776400). ** Changed in: grub2 (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged = Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1409750 Title: grub2/kernel EFI firware size interface Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Seems that grub2 needs the ability to size the EFI implementation it is running on.

Benign looking fix. Already applied to Jessie's kernel in Debian.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1409750] Re: grub2/kernel EFI firware size interface
Looking at the patch, it appears to fall back to the previous behavior if it fails to read the new sysfs knob, so including it won't cause any harm, but without the corresponding kernel patch, it won't do what it is supposed to do either. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1409750 Title: grub2/kernel EFI firware size interface Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Seems that grub2 needs the ability to size the EFI implementation it is running on.
