[OS-BUILD PATCH 0/3] redhat: Add sub-RPM with a EFI unified kernel image for virtual machines

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Vitaly Kuznetsov on gitlab.com
Merge Request: https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-ark/-/merge_requests/2175

The new 'kernel-unified-virt' sub-RPM is added on x86_64 targets.

This matches the following CS9 request:
https://gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/src/kernel/centos-
stream-9/-/merge_requests/1736

This contains an EFI application that provides a combined vmlinux,
initrd and cmdline, as a so called 'unified kernel image'. The
spec for this is defined by the boot loader specification

  https://systemd.io/BOOT_LOADER_SPECIFICATION/#type-2-efi-unified-kernel-
images

Note: the newly introduced sub-package just puts UKI to /boot/efi/EFI/Linux/,
it is supposed to be booted directly from firmware or directly from shim and
this part is environement specific and not (yet) automated.
