Subject: [PATCH] ppc64le: signed boot media changes
Skip mdraid < 1.1 on isos since mdraid* can't even
Prior to this change, on ppc64le with part_msdos and the mdraid* modules
enabled, we see:
disk/diskfilter.c:191: scanning ieee1275/cdrom
kern/disk.c:196: Opening `ieee1275/cdrom'...
disk/ieee1275/ofdisk.c:477: Opening `cdrom'.
disk/ieee1275/ofdisk.c:502: MAX_RETRIES set to 20
kern/disk.c:288: Opening `ieee1275/cdrom' succeeded.
disk/diskfilter.c:136: Scanning for DISKFILTER devices on disk ieee1275/cdrom
partmap/msdos.c:184: partition 0: flag 0x80, type 0x96, start 0x0, len
0x6a5d70
disk/diskfilter.c:136: Scanning for DISKFILTER devices on disk ieee1275/cdrom
SCSI-DISK: Access beyond end of device !
SCSI-DISK: Access beyond end of device !
SCSI-DISK: Access beyond end of device !
SCSI-DISK: Access beyond end of device !
SCSI-DISK: Access beyond end of device !
disk/ieee1275/ofdisk.c:578: MAX_RETRIES set to 20
These latter two lines repeat many times, eventually ending in:
kern/disk.c:388: ieee1275/cdrom read failed
error: ../../grub-core/disk/ieee1275/ofdisk.c:608:failure reading sector
0x1a9720 from `ieee1275/cdrom'.
and the system drops to a "grub>" prompt.
Prior to 1.1, mdraid stored the superblock offset from the end of the
disk, and the firmware really doesn't like reads there. Best guess was
that the firmware and the iso image appear to diagree on the blocksize
(512 vs. 2048), and the diskfilter RAID probing is too much for it.
It's tempting to just skip probing for cdroms, but unfortunately isos
can be virtualized elsewhere - such as regular disks.
Also fix detection of root, and try the chrp path as a fallback if the
built prefix doesn't work.
