Public bug reported: Canonical requests to test the secure boot for the 5.10 kernel but kernel fails to boot with secure boot disabled.
The 5.10 kernel can be found in: https://launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel-team/+archive/ubuntu/bootstrap They can be installed by installing the linux-generic-wip package with this PPA enabled. As usual, they are only signed using a key specific to that PPA. This key can be retrieved from the signing tarballs for the kernels, e.g.: http://ppa.launchpad.net/canonical-kernel- team/bootstrap/ubuntu/dists/hirsute/main/signed/linux-5.10-ppc64el/5.10.0-2.3/signed.tar.gz Our tester installed the 5.10 kernel via aptitude. If booting directly from the bootmenu, it stucks at: "kexec_core: Starting new kernel" If booting recovery kernel for 5.10.0, it proceeds farther and after kexec_core, it failed at: " [ 0.029830] LSM: Security Framework initializing [ 0.029916] Yama: b " Two attempts with a different scenario; running with 5.8 kernel and boot via commandline for 5.10: kexec -l /boot/vmlinux-5.10.0-0-generic --initrd=/boot/initrd.img-5.10.0-0-generic --append="root=UUID=49d000cb-dba2-4d70-809e-38f2b31d0f09 ro quiet splash" kexec -e Both attempts also failed while rebooting, once with the same error as the error from booting with bootmenu; the other failure occurred a lot earlier. Wondering what new CONFIGs and/or features for the 5.10 kernel? ** Affects: ubuntu-power-systems Importance: Undecided Assignee: Canonical Kernel Team (canonical-kernel-team) Status: New ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Assignee: Ubuntu on IBM Power Systems Bug Triage (ubuntu-power-triage) Status: New ** Tags: architecture-ppc64le bugnameltc-189504 severity-medium targetmilestone-inin2010 ** Tags added: architecture-ppc64le bugnameltc-189504 severity-medium targetmilestone-inin2010 ** Changed in: ubuntu Assignee: (unassigned) => Ubuntu on IBM Power Systems Bug Triage (ubuntu-power-triage) ** Package changed: ubuntu => linux (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1904906 Title: 5.10 kernel fails to boot with secure boot disabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-power-systems/+bug/1904906/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
