Changelog edk2 (0~20191122.bd85bf54-2ubuntu3)

2020

edk2 (0~20191122.bd85bf54-2ubuntu3) focal; urgency=medium

   * Actually install the new "ms" descriptor.

edk2 (0~20191122.bd85bf54-2ubuntu2) focal; urgency=medium

   * Bring back (and fix) the "ms" option and restore the behavior of the
     "secboot" option, which had changed when libvirt moved from built-in
     nvram configs to parsing external firmware descriptors. LP: #1864532.
     - Reintroduce OVMF_CODE.ms.fd symlink, but now it points to
       OVMF_CODE.secboot.fd instead of OVMF_CODE.fd, which enforces SMM.
     - Update firmware descriptor JSON files:
       + Update the existing secboot descriptor to use an empty variable
         store. This makes it Secure Boot-capable, but with Secure Boot
         initially disabled. Note that previously it used a store w/ keys
         pre-enrolled, without advertising that feature.
       + Add a new "ms" descriptor which has keys pre-enrolled, has Secure
         Boot enabled, and advertises the "enrolled-keys" feature.
       + Provide more details in "description" fields.
     - README.Debian: Improve the use-case description for each image.

edk2 (0~20191122.bd85bf54-2ubuntu1) focal; urgency=medium

   * Clear memory before free to avoid potential password leak.

     - d/binary-check.blacklist: Drop binary removed upstream.
     - debian/find-binaries.py: Add to the list of heuristically "OK"

     qemu-efi-aarch64, and qemu-efi-arm.
   * debian/rules: Fix a comment typo in the get-orig-source rules.
   * debian/rules: Introduce a setup-build-stamp to avoid unnecessary

     - debian/control: add xorriso, qemu-utils, qemu-system-x86, python3 to
       Build-Depends for the automatic key enrollment process.
     - debian/rules:
       - build a SecureBoot/SMM enabled variant of OVMF_CODE too.
       - build OVMF_VARS.ms.fd with embedded Microsoft keys from the binary
         EnrollDefaultKeys.efi
     - debian/ovmf.links: add OVMF_CODE.ms.fd.
     - debian/ovmf.install: install OVMF_VARS.ms.fd.

edk2 (0~20190606.20d2e5a1-1) experimental; urgency=medium

   * New upstream release, based on edk2-stable201905 tag.
     - d/binary-check.blacklist: Drop binaries removed upstream.
     - Remove unused embedded copy of BrotliCompress to avoid
       security scanner false-positives.
     - Adapt to upstream's use of git submodules for openssl and
       berkeley-softfloat-3.
   * debian/control: Fold and sort Build-Depends line.
   * debian/control: Add bc to Build-Depends, as it is now used by
     edksetup.sh.
   * debian/control: Add python3-distutils to Build-Depends. Part of
     the build will now use python3 instead of python if found at build-time.
     However, the build requires distutils, and upstream only embeds the
     python(2) version of that.
   * Revert "Adjust debian/rules to only build ovmf when building with -b"
     commit, as Debian now has the necessary cross-compilers.
   * Remove unnecessary sourcing of edksetup.sh. It only needs to be
     sourced in targets that need to inherent its environment.
   * Add a set of autopkgtests that verify each image type boots to a
     UEFI shell prompt in QEMU.
   * Include /usr/share/dpkg/architecture.mk instead of manually defining
     equivalent variables.

edk2 (0~20190309.89910a39-1) experimental; urgency=medium

   * New upstream release, based on edk2-stable201903 tag.

       Closes: #924615.

     - qemu-efi-{arm,aarch64}: Drop -DINTEL_BDS from build flags.
       It became the default some time ago and was removed.
     - ovmf: Stop cargo-culting the inclusion and build of external
       EdkShell source. This is now no longer supported by upstream,
       and is a no-op because it was replaced by the internal UEFI
       shell back 2013 (9bef3cdc "OvmfPkg: Build and use the UEFI shell
       by default").
     - qemu-efi-{arm,aarch64}: Don't explicitly build ShellPkg,
       ArmVirtPkg has been doing it since 2015 (da1ce6f8
       "ArmVirtualizationPkg: build UEFI shell from source").
     - Don't explicitly build FatPkg, OvmfPkg & ArmVirtPkg have
       included it since 2016 (aa47e529 "OvmfPkg: Convert to using
       FatPkg in the EDK II tree"), (42e3d9eb "ArmVirtPkg: Convert to
       build FatPkg from source").
     - d/p/no-missing-braces.diff: Forward port.
     - d/p/no-stack-protector-all-archs.diff: Forward port.

   * debian/rules: Replace hardcoded "AARCH64" strings with $(EDK2_HOST_ARCH).
