@Peter Gonda -- You seem to be 100% correct. Thank you for the helpful pointer!
I have confirmed the fix and shim-side of the changes that exposed the issue. I will SRU the fix asap. ** No longer affects: shim-signed (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-gcp in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1931254 Title: Google Confidential Compute fails to boot with 1.47 Status in linux-gcp package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: # Overview Hirsute and Impish daily builds are currently not booting on Google Confidential Compute. Confidential compute is Google's platform that enables the use of Secure Encrypted Virtualization extension via AMD EPYC CPUs. Booting an image with version 1.45 works, but once upgraded to 1.47, the VM no longer boots, and instead the kernel panics. Launching the image with secure boot, but without confidential compute works as expected. # Expected result The system is able to reboot after the upgrade. # Actual result Kernel panic: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/mHrvVc6qBc/ # Steps to reproduce Launch a VM in GCE with confidential compute enabled with a serial v20210511a or later and look at the serial log for the kernel panic. Example CLI command to launch a VM: $ gcloud beta compute instances create $USER-confidential-testing --zone=us-west1-b --machine-type=n2d-standard-2 --image=daily- ubuntu-2104-hirsute-v20210511a --image-project=ubuntu-os-cloud-devel --confidential-compute --maintenance-policy=TERMINATE The last known good working image is daily- ubuntu-2104-hirsute-v20210510. The upgrade that fails is when shim signed is updated from 1.46+15.4-0ubuntu1 to 1.47+15.4-0ubuntu2 # Logs & notes * 20210510 manifest (good): https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/QjnMPcJj7G/ * 20210511a manifest (bad): https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/PvJQwRXHcG/ * diff between manifests: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/4nJtGxqGn7/ * serial logs of failed boot: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/mHrvVc6qBc/ To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-gcp/+bug/1931254/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
