Subject: [BUG SEVERE] Failure to enable EFI Runtime services on T2 Macs

On using some specific kernel configuration, on Macs with the T2 Security chip, EFI Runtime services fail to start. Some logs which may be useful are as follows :-

The kernel configuration where this bug is seen is on https://github.com/t2linux/T2-Ubuntu-Kernel/blob/Mainline/templates/default-config

I had an old kernel configuration, where I did not face this issue and was easily able to write to the NVRAM. That kernel configuration is on https://github.com/t2linux/T2-Ubuntu-Kernel/blob/b5c20b8c7689251dd943e22dbe02cef9020db8d1/templates/default-config

I believe these lines in the kernel config, which are present in the former but absent in the latter are causing the issue :-


CONFIG_SECURITY_LANDLOCK=y
CONFIG_INTEGRITY=y
CONFIG_INTEGRITY_SIGNATURE=y
CONFIG_INTEGRITY_ASYMMETRIC_KEYS=y
CONFIG_INTEGRITY_TRUSTED_KEYRING=y
CONFIG_INTEGRITY_PLATFORM_KEYRING=y
CONFIG_LOAD_UEFI_KEYS=y
CONFIG_INTEGRITY_AUDIT=y
CONFIG_IMA=y
CONFIG_IMA_MEASURE_PCR_IDX=10

CONFIG_IMA_DEFAULT_HASH="sha1"
# CONFIG_IMA_WRITE_POLICY is not set

CONFIG_IMA_APPRAISE_BOOTPARAM=y
CONFIG_IMA_APPRAISE_MODSIG=y
CONFIG_IMA_TRUSTED_KEYRING=y
# CONFIG_IMA_KEYRINGS_PERMIT_SIGNED_BY_BUILTIN_OR_SECONDARY is not set
# CONFIG_IMA_BLACKLIST_KEYRING is not set
# CONFIG_IMA_LOAD_X509 is not set
CONFIG_IMA_MEASURE_ASYMMETRIC_KEYS=y
CONFIG_IMA_QUEUE_EARLY_BOOT_KEYS=y

Especially CONFIG_LOAD_UEFI_KEYS=y is which I guess may be the culprit.

I request you to reply to my issue as soon as possible

Thanks
Aditya
