Summary0017394: blscfg module fails to create boot params correctly when using UEFI
DescriptionWhen converting the latest CentOS-8-GenericCloud-8.1.1911-20200113.3.x86_64.qcow2 image to boot using UEFI and QEMU, the blscfg module fails to create the correct boot params in /boot/loader/entries.

The content of the normal {uuid}-4.18.0-147.3.1.el8_1.x86_64.conf has :

load_video
set gfx_payload=keep
insmod gzio
linux ($root)/boot/vmlinuz-4.18.0-147.3.1.el8_1.x86_64
initrd ($root)/boot/initramfs-4.18.0-147.3.1.el8_1.x86_64.img $tuned_initrd

When booting the same image in BIOS mode, the $kernelopts value is correctly completed and the entry has :

load_video
set gfx_payload=keep
insmod gzio
linux ($root)/boot/vmlinuz-4.18.0-147.3.1.el8_1.x86_64 root=UUID=c7b1ead0-f176\
-4f23-b9c7-299eb4a06cef ro console=ttyS0,115200n8 no_timer_check net.ifnames=0\
 crashkernel=auto
initrd ($root)/boot/initramfs-4.18.0-147.3.1.el8_1.x86_64.img $tuned_initrd

Running the blscfg module in debug shows for the BIOS mode :

In the second test, the value of $kernelopts is not expanded in its content.

Please note that removing the entry $tuned_params in the following line of the /boot/loader/entries/{uuid}{kernel-version}.conf file fixes the issue :

options $kernelopts $tuned_params

Kind regards,

Steps To ReproduceBoot a UEFI enabled QCOW2 image which has the following grub2 package installed :

grub2-tools-extra-2.02-78.el8.x86_64
grub2-pc-modules-2.02-78.el8.noarch
grub2-efi-x64-modules-2.02-78.el8.noarch
grubby-8.40-37.el8.x86_64
grub2-tools-minimal-2.02-78.el8.x86_64
grub2-tools-2.02-78.el8.x86_64
grub2-pc-2.02-78.el8.x86_64
grub2-common-2.02-78.el8.noarch
grub2-efi-x64-2.02-78.el8.x86_64

with the following QEMU command :
qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm \
                    -name uefiboot \
                    -display none \
                    -monitor none \
                    -nodefaults \
                    -nographic \
                    -m 2048M \
                    -smp 2 \
                    -cpu host \
                    -serial mon:stdio \
                    -netdev user,id=user.0 -device e1000,netdev=user.0 \
                    -drive if=pflash,format=raw,readonly,file=/root/image-centos-8/OVMF_CODE.fd \
                    -drive if=pflash,format=raw,file=/root/OVMF_VARS.fd \
                    -drive file=/root/centos-8.x86_64.qcow2.uefi,if=virtio,id=disk0

The image will not boot and the boot entry for CentOS 8 will be :

load_video
set gfx_payload=keep
insmod gzio
linux ($root)/boot/vmlinuz-4.18.0-147.3.1.el8_1.x86_64
initrd ($root)/boot/initramfs-4.18.0-147.3.1.el8_1.x86_64.img $tuned_initrd
