By looking at the shared output, GRUB is executed up to when the control is passed to the kernel by jumping directly to the PE/COFF entry point: ... pe = (void *)((unsigned long)kernel_addr + lh.hdr_offset); handover_offset = pe->opt.entry_addr; ... grub_err_t grub_efi_linux_boot (void *kernel_addr, grub_off_t handover_offset, void *kernel_params) { grub_efi_loaded_image_t *loaded_image = NULL; handover_func hf; int offset = 0; #ifdef __x86_64__ offset = 512; #endif /* * Since the EFI loader is not calling the LoadImage() and StartImage() * services for loading the kernel and booting respectively, it has to * set the Loaded Image base address. */ loaded_image = grub_efi_get_loaded_image (grub_efi_image_handle); if (loaded_image) loaded_image->image_base = kernel_addr; else grub_dprintf ("linux", "Loaded Image base address could not be set\n"); grub_dprintf ("linux", "kernel_addr: %p handover_offset: %p params: %p\n", kernel_addr, (void *)(grub_efi_uintn_t)handover_offset, kernel_params); hf = (handover_func)((char *)kernel_addr + handover_offset + offset); hf (grub_efi_image_handle, grub_efi_system_table, kernel_params); return GRUB_ERR_BUG; } So the issue should be on the boot protocol used by GRUB, or very early in the kernel boot process. More investigation will be needed to figure that out. Moving this to the kernel component, since as mentioned it hangs after GRUB has jumped to the Linux PE/COFF entry point. |
Created attachment 1792895 [details] last output before bootloop with debug=all Description of problem: After creating live USB with dd, I booted from the Aarch64 boot disk on Lenovo Flex 5g. Secure boot was disabled. The grub menu was displayed. after selecting any option, whether it be safe graphics, or regular, it immediately bootloops back to the grub menu. I attempted to get information by setting "debug=all". I have attached a screen image below of some of the last debug messages that were shown. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora-Workstation-Live-aarch64-34-1.2 How reproducible: easily reproducible Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot a USB of Fedora workstation 34 Aarch64 2. select any boot option 3. Actual results: System immediately reboots back to the grub menu Expected results: system boots from the USB properly Additional info: (screen image attached)
