Add UEFI_COMPATIBLE and SECURE_BOOT to RHCOS on GCP #2546
Comments
/assign @cgwalters |
@cgwalters do you mind providing a little more context on why this is important? Also I think a prerequisite would be making sure machine-api has this feature if this is a VM tunable. |
Turning on these flags gives us secure boot and a virtual TPM. The virtual TPM is quite useful for a variety of reasons, but one of the biggest is that we really want to push using TPMs on bare metal, and having a top-tier cloud target also have a TPM means we effectively get testing of some of the metal/TPM paths for free at scale.
I don't think that's necessary; it's a property of the image which machine-api just consumes. |

This opts us in to some of the features from https://cloud.google.com/security/shielded-cloud/shielded-vm Specifically with this, we get a vTPM device. And what's nice about having a TPM device is that we can start to optionally make use of TPM devices in OpenShift which will then work on both bare metal *and* in GCP. Closes: openshift#2546

We will need to do coreos/mantle#1060 but with Terraform, since for GCP we only upload image files. It looks like this was only very recently added to the Terraform GCP provider: GoogleCloudPlatform/magic-modules#2339
I still need to do some testing with this with RHCOS, but it works with FCOS, so filing this now to track it and help me remember to do it.
