No, I believe the defattr here has ‘-‘ for the permissions, so it should be using the 755 that’s set by the install. I think there needs to be investigation on our side to determine what’s going on here.

Hi Don,

So it seems “%defattr” has different effect in your and our build system. Is my understanding correct?

In grub.macros, “%defattr” just define the default user/group, the default permission is not set.

It seems like an issue of the spec, what’s your suggestion to fix it?

Thanks.

 

Best Regards

Shuicheng

Looking at our in-house jenkins build output, I see:

$ rpm -qp --dump std/results/jenkins-STX_Feature_centos76_Build-2019-02-12_14-43-05-tis-r6-pike-std/grub2-2.02-0.76.el7.centos.tis.12/grub2-efi-x64-pxeboot-2.02-0.76.el7.centos.tis.12.x86_64.rpm

Looking at the grub.macro file, which is providing the %install and %files directives, it certainly seems like this should be 755. The %defattr being set ignores the permissions. And I don’t see anything in the build.log that would indicate another chmod is happening after.

I think it's on our side.

 

The in house jenkins script I cloned for the 76 build does not include an installer rebuild.

Hi Yang/Don,

We double checked the issue today. Here is our finding:

1.      I try to revert the fix [0], then do build-pkgs and build-iso, the “grubx64.efi” in “export/dist/isolinux/pxeboot/EFI/” is with 700 permission mode.

Add the fix [0] back, then build-pkgs and build-iso, the “grubx64.efi” is changed to 755 permission mode.

I also checked the grubx64.efi file in both ISO image, it has the same mode as upper file.

2.      Martin confirmed there is tftp log in the deployment:

2019-02-11T00:36:52.000 controller-0 dnsmasq-tftp[8262]: info sent /pxeboot/EFI/grubx64.efi to 169.254.202.76

controller-0:/var/log$ ls /pxeboot/EFI/grubx64.efi  -l

-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 1234192 Feb  3 06:52 /pxeboot/EFI/grubx64.efi

3.      Austin confirmed “install -D -m 755” will set the grubx64.efi with 755 permission mode.

       -m, --mode=MODE

              set permission mode (as in chmod), instead of rwxr-xr-x

4.      I try to go through the build log. Here is the log from grub2’s build.log

+ install -m 700 grubx64.efi /builddir/build/BUILDROOT/grub2-2.02-0.76.el7.centos.tis.12.x86_64/boot/efi/EFI/centos/grubx64.efi.unsigned

+ install -m 700 gcdx64.efi /builddir/build/BUILDROOT/grub2-2.02-0.76.el7.centos.tis.12.x86_64/boot/efi/EFI/centos/gcdx64.efi.unsigned

+ install -D -m 755 grubx64.efi /builddir/build/BUILDROOT/grub2-2.02-0.76.el7.centos.tis.12.x86_64/pxeboot/EFI/grubx64.efi

+ install -m 700 grubx64.efi /builddir/build/BUILDROOT/grub2-2.02-0.76.el7.centos.tis.12.x86_64/boot/efi/EFI/centos/grubx64.efi

+ install -m 700 gcdx64.efi /builddir/build/BUILDROOT/grub2-2.02-0.76.el7.centos.tis.12.x86_64/boot/efi/EFI/centos/gcdx64.efi

And in build-iso script, the file will be extracted and copied to the EFI folder:

extract_pkg_from_local_repo ${MY_YUM_CONF} ${STD_REPO_ID} grub2-efi-x64-pxeboot

\cp --preserve=all pxeboot/EFI/grubx64.efi $OUTPUT_DIST_DIR/isolinux/pxeboot/EFI/

Due to we cannot reproduce the issue, we are not sure which step cause the issue yet.

So could you help me have a check with below step to narrow down the issue? Thanks.

1.      Please help check whether there is “install -D -m 755 grubx64.efi” in the “loadbuild/std/results/slin14-starlingx-tis-r5-pike-std/grub2-2.02-0.76.el7.centos.tis.12/build.log” or not.

2.      Please help extract “grub2-efi-x64-pxeboot-2.02-0.76.el7.centos.tis.12.x86_64.rpm” in “loadbuild/std/rpmbuild/RPMS”, and check whether the grubx64.efi file is with 755 mode or not.

Extract cmd: rpm2cpio grub2-efi-x64-pxeboot-2.02-0.76.el7.centos.tis.12.x86_64.rpm | cpio -idmv

3.      Please help check the “grubx64.efi” in “export/dist/isolinux/pxeboot/EFI/” folder is with 755 mode or not.

Hi Cindy,

 

In a successful case, you should see a TFTP log in daemon.log on the active controller indicating the file was transferred, such as:

2019-02-12T13:20:45.000 controller-0 dnsmasq-tftp[200877]: info sent /pxeboot/EFI/grubx64.efi to 192.168.204.4

 

I would suggest doing something like “tail -f /var/log/daemon.log | grep -i tftp” while doing the installation of nodes from the active controller, to verify the expected file is getting transferred. If the host installs and you don’t see this file transferred, I’d recommend reconfirming that the node is installing via UEFI.

Hi, Yang 

Sorry about the issue! It’s interesting as I did have my engineer tested the scenarios. There must be something missing from my side.

 

We will redo the patch and test. In the same time, can you manually change the file permissions as temporarily workaround and unblock the test cycle?

 

Thanks! Cindy

Hi Cindy,

 

We are still seeing the same file permission issue for grubx64.efi under pxeboot/EFI, causing UEFI pxeboot to fail.

We need the grubx64.efi to be readable by others as well.

-rwx------ 1 jenkins mock 1233016 Feb 12 16:37 grubx64.efi

 

The patch seems to have changed the dir permission for centos from 700 to 755, but not grubx64.efi.

For the dir permission for centos, I believe the original 700 should be sufficient (@Scott, please correct me if it’s wrong).

Hi, Numan/Yang,

The last pending patch (https://review.openstack.org/#/c/634559/) which was blocking your testing (#1814360) was just merged. Please get new build ISO from Jason so you can continue the testing.

Hi, Yang,

Thanks for the report.

Are the “two node system” below referring to Duplex? Just want to confirm because #1814360 we have a patch pending and we do want to ensure it works on Duplex as well.
