[Bug 2011808] Re: [SRU] [HWE] fwupd-efi/1:1.4-0ubuntu0.1 tracker

[Steve Langasek]

Hello Julian, or anyone else affected,

Accepted fwupd-signed into jammy-proposed. The package will build now
and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fwupd-
signed/1.51.1~22.04.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed
repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
jammy to verification-done-jammy. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-jammy. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  fwupd-efi 1.4 fixes issues with firmware updates on some hardware and is the first release with the NX bit set.

  [[Release Notes]]
  ## 1.3

  This release fixes the following bugs:

  Fix a regression when applying updates on an HP M60
  Fix the ARM system crt0 name
  Show the version when starting fwupd-efi

  ## 1.4

  This release fixes the following bugs:

  Add additional checks for incompatible CRT0
  Align sections to 512 bytes
  Generate images that are NX compatible
  Use manual symbols mode on ARM32
  Use objcopy to build arm/aarch64 binaries for new binutils

  [Workflow]
  fwupd-efi is built in ppa:ubuntu-uefi-team/ubuntu/ppa against the security  pocket in kinetic only and then binary copied following the in-progress signed boot asset workflow. fwupd-signed are built in the signing PPA in each release separately.

  [Test plan]
  - Boot it in the VM
  - Boot it on real hardware (Julian can check built binary on ThinkPad T14 G3 AMD)

  [Where problems could occur]
  fwupd efi binary could regress on some platforms if there's bugs, preventing people on those platforms from upgrading their firmware.

  [See also]
  bug 2011804 for the related gnu-efi update.

  [Other info]
  We branched kinetic fwupd-signed packaging off a bit, and hence the versioning is now 1.51.1 (lunar is at 1.52), and it is that 1.51.1 that gets also backported to older releases (reuploaded with ~22.04.1 and similar).

  Some changes were needed for the SRUs due to the fwupd-unsigned build-
  dep being to strong in 1.52, and having to install binaries to
  /usr/lib on bionic.

  This brings it in line with grub2-signed., which also maintains one
  devel series and one stable series.
