This bug is awaiting verification that the linux-gcp-
fips/6.8.0-1035.37+fips1 kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please
test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is
solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-noble-linux-gcp-fips' to
'verification-done-noble-linux-gcp-fips'. If the problem still exists,
change the tag 'verification-needed-noble-linux-gcp-fips' to
'verification-failed-noble-linux-gcp-fips'.


If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.


See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Title:
  Fix HLT logic execution for TDX VMs

Status in linux-gcp package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in linux-gcp source package in Noble:
  Fix Released
Status in linux-gcp source package in Oracular:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  SRU Justification

  [Impact]
  Google has requested a backport of the following commits:
  22cc5ca5de52 ("x86/paravirt: Move halt paravirt calls under CONFIG_PARAVIRT")
  9f98a4f4e721 ("x86/tdx: Fix arch_safe_halt() execution for TDX VMs")
  Targets include 6.8 onwards.

  [Fix]
  Backport the patches as needed to noble:linux-gcp and later kernels.

  [Test plan]
  Compile and boot test. Verification on Google's side is optional as this is a 
fairly isolated backport.

  [Where problems could occur]
  This fix affects TDX guest VMs which call the HLT instruction. An issue with 
this fix would be visible to the user as unexpected #VEs (virtualization 
exceptions) or unexpected interrupt behavior in their TDX guest VM.

  SF #00412211
