<filename>linuxx64.efi.stub</filename>, <filename>linuxia32.efi.stub</filename>,

<filename>linuxaa64.efi.stub</filename> on disk) is a simple UEFI boot stub. An UEFI boot stub is
|
|
attached to a Linux kernel binary image, and is a piece of code that runs in the UEFI firmware
|
|
environment before transitioning into the Linux kernel environment. The UEFI boot stub ensures a Linux
|
|
kernel is executable as regular UEFI binary, and is able to do various preparations before switching the
|
|
system into the Linux world.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The UEFI boot stub looks for various resources for the kernel invocation inside the UEFI PE binary
|
|
itself. This allows combining various resources inside a single PE binary image (usually called "Unified
|
|
Kernel Image", or "UKI" for short), which may then be signed via UEFI SecureBoot as a whole, covering all
|
|
individual resources at once. Specifically it may include:</para>

<para>If UEFI SecureBoot is enabled and the <literal>.cmdline</literal> section is present in the executed

|
|
SecureBoot, or don't include a kernel command line PE section in the kernel image file. If a command line

is accepted via EFI invocation parameters to the EFI binary it is measured into TPM PCR 12 (if a TPM is

present).</para>

<para>The contents of eight of these nine sections are measured into TPM PCR 11. It is otherwise not used

and thus the result can be pre-calculated without too much effort. The <literal>.pcrsig</literal> section

is not included in this PCR measurement, since it is supposed to contain signatures for the output of the

measurement operation, and thus cannot also be input to it.</para>

|
|
<filename>/.extra/tpm2-pcr-public-key.pem</filename> files. Typically, a
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>tmpfiles.d</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry> line then
|

ensures they are copied into <filename>/run/systemd/tpm2-pcr-signature.json</filename> and

<title>Companion Files</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <command>systemd-stub</command> UEFI boot stub automatically collects three types of auxiliary
|
|
companion files optionally placed in drop-in directories on the same partition as the EFI binary,
|
|
dynamically generates <command>cpio</command> initrd archives from them, and passes them to the kernel.
|
|
Specifically:</para>
|
|
|
|
<itemizedlist>
|
|
<listitem><para>For a kernel binary called <filename><replaceable>foo</replaceable>.efi</filename>, it
|
|
will look for files with the <filename>.cred</filename> suffix in a directory named
|
|
<filename><replaceable>foo</replaceable>.efi.extra.d/</filename> next to it. If the kernel binary
|
|
uses a counter for the purpose of
|
|
<ulink url="https://systemd.io/AUTOMATIC_BOOT_ASSESSMENT">Automatic Boot Assessment</ulink>, this
|
|
counter will be ignored. For example, <filename><replaceable>foo</replaceable>+3-0.efi</filename>
|
|
will look in directory <filename><replaceable>foo</replaceable>.efi.extra.d/</filename>.
|
|
A <command>cpio</command>
|
|
archive is generated from all files found that way, placing them in the
|
|
<filename>/.extra/credentials/</filename> directory of the initrd file hierarchy. The main initrd may
|
|
then access them in this directory. This is supposed to be used to store auxiliary, encrypted,
|
|
authenticated credentials for use with <varname>LoadCredentialEncrypted=</varname> in the UEFI System
|
|
Partition. See
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.exec</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
and
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-creds</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
for
|
|
details on encrypted credentials. The generated <command>cpio</command> archive is measured into TPM
|
|
PCR 12 (if a TPM is present).</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>Similarly, files
|
|
<filename><replaceable>foo</replaceable>.efi.extra.d/*.sysext.raw</filename> are packed up in a
|
|
<command>cpio</command> archive and placed in the <filename>/.extra/sysext/</filename> directory in the

initrd file hierarchy. This is supposed to be used to pass additional system extension images to the

initrd. See
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-sysext</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> for
|

details on system extension images. The generated <command>cpio</command> archive containing these

|
system extension images is measured into TPM PCR 13 (if a TPM is present).</para></listitem>
|

<!-- Note: the actual suffix we look for for sysexts is just *.raw (not *.sysext.raw), for
|
|
compatibility reasons with old versions. But we want people to name their system extensions
|
|
properly, hence we document the *.sysext.raw suffix only. -->
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>Similarly, files
|
|
<filename><replaceable>foo</replaceable>.efi.extra.d/*.confext.raw</filename> are packed up in a
|
|
<command>cpio</command> archive and placed in the <filename>/.extra/confext/</filename> directory in
|

the initrd file hierarchy. This is supposed to be used to pass additional configuration extension
|

images to the initrd. See
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-confext</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> for

details on configuration extension images. The generated <command>cpio</command> archive containing

these system extension images is measured into TPM PCR 12 (if a TPM is present).</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>Similarly, files
|
|
<filename><replaceable>foo</replaceable>.efi.extra.d/*.addon.efi</filename> are loaded and verified as
|
|
PE binaries, and a <literal>.cmdline</literal> section is parsed from them. Addons are supposed to be
|
|
used to pass additional kernel command line parameters or Devicetree blobs, regardless of the kernel
|
|
image being booted, for example to allow platform vendors to ship platform-specific
|
|
configuration.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>In case Secure Boot is enabled, these files will be validated using keys in UEFI DB, Shim's DB or
|
|
Shim's MOK, and will be rejected otherwise. Additionally, if the both the addon and the UKI contain a a
|
|
<literal>.uname</literal> section, the addon will be rejected if they do not match exactly. It is
|
|
recommended to always add a <literal>.sbat</literal> section to all signed addons, so that they may be
|
|
revoked with a SBAT policy update, without requiring blocklisting via DBX/MOKX. The
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>ukify</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry> tool will add
|
|
a SBAT policy by default if none is passed when building addons. For more information on SBAT see
|
|
<ulink url="https://github.com/rhboot/shim/blob/main/SBAT.md">Shim documentation</ulink>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Addon files are sorted, loaded, and measured into TPM PCR 12 (if a TPM is present) and appended
|
|
to the kernel command line. UKI command line options are listed first, then options from addons in
|
|
<filename>/loader/addons/*.addon.efi</filename>, and finally UKI-specific addons. Device tree blobs are
|
|
loaded and measured following the same algorithm. Addons are always loaded in the same order based on
|
|
the filename, so that, given the same set of addons, the same set of measurements can be expected in
|
|
PCR12. However, note that the filename is not protected by the PE signature, and as such an attacker
|
|
with write access to the ESP could potentially rename these files to change the order in which they are
|
|
loaded, in a way that could alter the functionality of the kernel, as some options might be
|
|
order-dependent. If you sign such addons, you should pay attention to the PCR12 values and make use of
|
|
an attestation service so that improper use of your signed addons can be detected and dealt with using
|
|
one of the aforementioned revocation mechanisms.</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>Files <filename>/loader/credentials/*.cred</filename> are packed up in a
|
|
<command>cpio</command> archive and placed in the <filename>/.extra/global_credentials/</filename>
|
|
directory of the initrd file hierarchy. This is supposed to be used to pass additional credentials to
|
|
the initrd, regardless of the kernel being booted. The generated <command>cpio</command> archive is

measured into TPM PCR 12 (if a TPM is present).</para></listitem>

<para>These mechanisms may be used to parameterize and extend trusted (i.e. signed), immutable initrd
|
|
images in a reasonably safe way: all data they contain is measured into TPM PCRs. On access they should be

further validated: in case of the credentials case by encrypting/authenticating them via TPM, as exposed
|

by <command>systemd-creds encrypt -T</command> (see

<title>TPM PCR Notes</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that when a unified kernel using <command>systemd-stub</command> is invoked the firmware will
|
|
measure it as a whole to TPM PCR 4, covering all embedded resources, such as the stub code itself, the
|
|
core kernel, the embedded initrd and kernel command line (see above for a full list).</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Also note that the Linux kernel will measure all initrds it receives into TPM PCR 9. This means
|
|
every type of initrd will be measured two or three times: the initrd embedded in the kernel image will be
|
|
measured to PCR 4, PCR 9 and PCR 11; the initrd synthesized from credentials (and the one synthesized
|
|
from configuration extensions) will be measured to both PCR 9 and PCR 12; the initrd synthesized from
|
|
system extensions will be measured to both PCR 4 and PCR 9. Let's summarize the OS resources and the PCRs
|
|
they are measured to:</para>
