Reviews of shim

Primary LanguageDockerfile

This repo is for review of requests for signing shim. To create a request for review:

  • clone this repo
  • edit the template below
  • add the shim.efi to be signed
  • add build logs
  • commit all of that
  • tag it with a tag of the form "myorg-shim-arch-YYYYMMDD"
  • push that to github
  • file an issue at https://github.com/rhboot/shim-review/issues with a link to your tag

Note that we really only have experience with using grub2 on Linux, so asking us to endorse anything else for signing is going to require some convincing on your part.

Here's the template:


What organization or people are asking to have this signed:

Ubuntu


What product or service is this for:

Ubuntu


What's the justification that this really does need to be signed for the whole world to be able to boot it:

We're a well-known Linux distro


Who is the primary contact for security updates, etc.


Who is the secondary contact for security updates, etc.

  • Name:
  • Position:
  • Email address:
  • PGP key:

What upstream shim tag is this starting from:

15 + commits up to 3beb971


URL for a repo that contains the exact code which was built to get this binary:

https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/shim/+git/shim/+ref/master


What patches are being applied and why:

No patches


What OS and toolchain must we use to reproduce this build? Include where to find it, etc. We're going to try to reproduce your build as close as possible to verify that it's really a build of the source tree you tell us it is, so these need to be fairly thorough. At the very least include the specific versions of gcc, binutils, and gnu-efi which were used, and where to find those binaries.

Ubuntu 18.10 binutils 2.31.1-3ubuntu2 gcc 4:8.2.0-1ubuntu1 gnu-efi 3.0.8-0ubuntu1 libc6-dev 2.27-3ubuntu1

gnu-efi is not yet available in Ubuntu 18.10, but is available here (same place that built shim): https://launchpad.net/~canonical-foundations/+archive/ubuntu/shim

To build:

Any distro with LXD that can run a daily ubuntu container will suffice.

  • lxd init # follow the defaults

Steps to build shim:

  • lxc launch ubuntu-daily:cosmic

Note the name of the created container, shim will be built in it.


Which files in this repo are the logs for your build? This should include logs for creating the buildroots, applying patches, doing the build, creating the archives, etc.
