Fixes #36834 - Add SecureBoot support for arbitrary operating systems…
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
… to "Grub2 UEFI" PXE loaders

This feature consists of four patches, one each for foreman,
smart-proxy, foreman-installer, and puppet-foreman_proxy.

This patch adds support for individual Network Bootstrap Programs (NBP)
in order to enable network based installations of SecureBoot enabled
hosts for arbitrary operating systems.

SecureBoot expects to follow a chain of trust from the initial boot of
the host to the loading of Linux kernel modules. The very first shim
that is loaded determines which distribution is allowed to be booted or
kexec'ed until next reboot.

Currently the "Grub2 UEFI SecureBoot" PXE loaders use NBPs provided by
the vendor of the Foreman/Smart Proxy host system. All hosts receive and
execute the same binary. On SecureBoot enabled hosts, this limits
installations to operating systems by the vendor of the Foreman/
Smart Proxy host system.

Providing shim and GRUB2 by the vendor of the operating system to be
installed allows Foreman to install any operating system on SecureBoot
enabled hosts over network.

To achieve this, the host's DHCP filename option is set to a shim/GRUB2
binary in a host specific directory based on their MAC address.
Corresponding shim and GRUB2 binaries are copied into that directory
along with the generated GRUB2 configuration files.
When provisioning a host, the Smart Proxy checks in a dedicated
directory inside the TFTP root - the so called "bootloader universe" -
if NBPs are present matching the operating system, operating system
version, and architecture of the host to be installed. If this is the
case, these NBPs are copied from the bootloader universe directory to
the host specific directory. If not, as a fallback the default NBPs
provided by the vendor of the Foreman/Smart Proxy host system are
copied from the `:tftproot:/grub2` directory to the host specific
directory.

Up to now, shim and GRUB2 binaries have to be retrieved and set up in
the bootloader universe directory manually according to the
documentation. An automatic way to provide OS dependent NBPs will be
added in future.

In case there are no NBPs present in the bootloader universe matching
the operating system, operating system version, and architecture of
the host to be installed, the behaviour of the "Grub2 UEFI" PXE
loaders does not change to the behavior prior to this feature.

Implementation notes:
---------------------
* To be future proof (e.g. to be able to provide NBPs in the bootloader
  universe for other PXE loaders without running into any filename
  conflicts) and for better structure, the PXE kind is prepended as a
  first directory level inside the bootloader universe.
* The operating system version inside the bootloader universe consists
  of the major and minor version (if applicable) of the operating system
  separated by a dot (`.`). If no NBPs are configured for a specific
  operating system version the fallback directory `default` is used.
* To simplify things on Foreman side in future, symlinks are used for
  the shim (boot-sb.efi) and GRUB2 (boot.efi) binaries.
* Inside the TFTP root directory a new directory `host-config` is
  created for storing all the host specific directories.
* Inside the TFTP root directory a new directory `bootloader-universe`
  is created for storing all the OS specific boot files.
* For storage efficiency the shim and GRUB2 binaries from the
  bootloader universe or the `:tftproot:/grub2` directory are
  symlinked to the host specific directory.
