Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: adjust setting of prefix for signed binary case
|
|
|
|
On RHEL-signed powerpc grub, we sign a grub with -p /grub2 and expect
|
|
that there's a boot partition.
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately grub_set_prefix_and_root tries to convert this to
|
|
($fwdevice)/grub2. This ends up being (ieee1275/disk)/grub2 and that
|
|
falls apart pretty quickly - there's no file-system on ieee1275/disk,
|
|
and it makes the search routine try things like
|
|
(ieee1275/disk,msdos2)(ieee1275/disk)/grub2 which also doesn't work.
|
|
|
|
Detect if we would be about to create (ieee1275/disk)/path and don't:
|
|
preserve a prefix of /path instead and hope the search later finds us.

|
|
+
|
|
+ We will have had !device earlier, so we will have set device=fwdevice
|
|
+ However, we want to make sure we do not end up setting prefix to be
|
|
+ ($fwdevice)/path, because we will then end up trying to boot or search
|
|
+ based on a prefix of (ieee1275/disk)/path, which will not work because
|
|
+ it's missing a partition.
|
|
+
|
|
+ Also:
|
|
+ - You can end up with a device with an FS directly on it, without
|
|
+ a partition, e.g. ieee1275/cdrom.
|
|
+
|
|
+ - powerpc-ieee1275 + grub-install sets e.g. prefix=(,gpt2)/path,
|
|
+ which will have now been extended to device=$fwdisk,partition
|
|
+ and path=/path
|
|
+
|
|
+ - PowerVM will give us device names like
|
|
+ ieee1275//vdevice/v-scsi@3000006c/disk@8100000000000000
|
|
+ and we don't want to try to encode some sort of truth table about
|
|
+ what sorts of paths represent disks with partition tables and those
|
|
+ without partition tables.
|
|
+
|
|
+ So we act unless there is a comma in the device, which would indicate
|
|
+ a partition has already been specified.
|
|
+
|
|
+ (If we only have a path, the code in normal to discover config files
|
|
+ will try both without partitions and then with any partitions so we
|
|
+ will cover both CDs and HDs.)
