File 0001-Workaround-volatile-efi-boot-variable.patch of Package grub2.24427
From 71575829c303fe8522b46fc96b1f99f1aa4178e7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Chang <mchang@suse.com> Date: Fri, 19 Mar 2021 22:58:45 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] Workaround volatile efi boot variable The efi variable in Microsoft Azure virtual machine is volatile that it cannot persist across power cycling. If we use efi variable to communicate with efi boot manager for booting a distribution, the process would silently fail as the default loader in the efi system partition will start to take over the process whenever the efi variable evaporated. That will lead to undefined symbol error one day as the default path didn't receive any grub update so it cannot keep up with new ABI requirement by updated grub modules. The patch will try to workaround the problem by providing grub update to the default path along with the distribution specific one. To avoid negative side effects of inadvertently overwritting other loader intended in default path, care must be taken to ensure that: 1. The workaround only takes place on detected Azure virtual machine 2. The default path is not in use by shim for the secure boot --- Makefile.util.def | 1 + .../osdep/basic/efi_removable_fallback.c | 26 +++ grub-core/osdep/efi_removable_fallback.c | 5 + .../osdep/linux/efi_removable_fallback.c | 151 ++++++++++++++++++ include/grub/util/install.h | 3 + util/grub-install.c | 19 +++ 6 files changed, 205 insertions(+) create mode 100644 grub-core/osdep/basic/efi_removable_fallback.c create mode 100644 grub-core/osdep/efi_removable_fallback.c create mode 100644 grub-core/osdep/linux/efi_removable_fallback.c Index: grub-2.02/Makefile.util.def =================================================================== --- grub-2.02.orig/Makefile.util.def +++ grub-2.02/Makefile.util.def @@ -641,6 +641,7 @@ program = { emu_condition = COND_s390x; common = grub-core/kern/emu/argp_common.c; common = grub-core/osdep/init.c; + common = grub-core/osdep/efi_removable_fallback.c; ldadd = '$(LIBLZMA)'; ldadd = libgrubmods.a; Index: grub-2.02/grub-core/osdep/basic/efi_removable_fallback.c =================================================================== --- /dev/null +++ grub-2.02/grub-core/osdep/basic/efi_removable_fallback.c @@ -0,0 +1,26 @@ +/* + * GRUB -- GRand Unified Bootloader + * Copyright (C) 2013 Free Software Foundation, Inc. + * + * GRUB is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify + * it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by + * the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or + * (at your option) any later version. + * + * GRUB is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, + * but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of + * MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
