[Bug 2025578] Re: [23.10 FEAT] Provide s390-tools on x86_64 to enable Secure Execution in the Cloud

[Frank Heimes]

Yeah, that's the commit as it is in v2.28 right?
I've created a PPA with that version and packages for amd64, arm64 and ppc64el that incl. the pvattest and genprotimg tools themselves:

Are the genprotimg bootloaders mandatory or is it for now sufficient to
have the tool itself incl.?

Title:
  [23.10 FEAT] Provide s390-tools on x86_64 to enable Secure Execution
  in the Cloud

Status in Ubuntu on IBM z Systems:
  In Progress
Status in s390-tools package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in s390-tools-signed package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Feature Description:

  Selected tools from the s390-tools package need to be made available
  on x86_64.

  This will enable the integration of IBM Z machines running Secure Execution in a cloud environment where users don't necessarily need to have an s390x environment.
  genprotimg (for building secure images) and pvattest (for external attestation) are examples for these tools.
  This feature requires structural changes to the s390-tools package to e.g. in the Makefile and potential changes on the distributor side to reflect their changes on the package.
