From 3ea0f248bc3005dce07a58c947ebff21c57a3acd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Young Date: Tue, 6 Oct 2015 13:31:31 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] kexec/uefi: 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.
