From 99cf5ed9bf55d7872755998e2ca64054cae19a7d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Young Date: Wed, 5 Apr 2017 17:40:30 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Copy secure_boot flag in boot params across kexec reboot Kexec reboot in case secure boot being enabled does not keep the secure boot mode in new kernel, so later one can load unsigned kernel via legacy kexec_load. In this state, the system is missing the protections provided by secure boot. Adding a patch to fix this by retain the secure_boot flag in original kernel. secure_boot flag in boot_params is set in EFI stub, but kexec bypasses the stub. Fixing this issue by copying secure_boot flag across kexec reboot.
