- Prepare secure boot PKI (see `secure-boot/genkeys.sh`)
## Build
When building your first image, prepare the secure boot PKI (see `secure-boot/genkeys.sh`) for self-signed, locally built images.
After that, you can build the image with:
```sh
# OPTIONAL: to create a debug image, export the following line
# export DEBUG=true
# OPTIONAL: to enable the serial console, export the following line
# export AUTOLOGIN=true
# OPTIONAL: symlink custom path to secure boot PKI to ./pki
# ln -s /path/to/pki/folder ./pki
sudo make -j $(nproc)
```
Raw images will be placed in `mkosi.output./fedora~37/image.raw`.
## Prepare Secure Boot
The generated images are partially signed by Microsoft ([shim loader](https://github.com/rhboot/shim)), and partially signed by Edgeless Systems (systemd-boot and unified kernel images consisting of the linux kernel, initramfs and kernel commandline).
For QEMU and Azure, you can pre-generate the NVRAM variables for secure boot. This is not necessary for GCP, as you can specify secure boot parameters via the GCP API on image creation.
libvirt / QEMU / KVM
```sh
secure-boot/generate_nvram_vars.sh mkosi.output.qemu/fedora~37/image.raw
```
Azure
These steps only have to performed once for a fresh set of secure boot certificates.
VMGS blobs for testing and release images already exist.
First, create a disk without embedded MOK EFI variables.
```sh
# set these variables
export AZURE_SECURITY_TYPE=ConfidentialVM # or TrustedLaunch
export AZURE_RESOURCE_GROUP_NAME= # e.g. "constellation-images"
export AZURE_REGION=northeurope
export AZURE_REPLICATION_REGIONS=
export AZURE_DISK_NAME=constellation-$(date +%s)
export AZURE_SNAPSHOT_NAME=${AZURE_DISK_NAME}
export AZURE_RAW_IMAGE_PATH=${PWD}/mkosi.output.azure/fedora~37/image.raw
export AZURE_IMAGE_PATH=${PWD}/mkosi.output.azure/fedora~37/image.vhd
export AZURE_VMGS_FILENAME=${AZURE_SECURITY_TYPE}.vmgs
export AZURE_JSON_OUTPUT=${PWD}/mkosi.output.azure/fedora~37/image-upload.json
export BLOBS_DIR=${PWD}/blobs
upload/pack.sh azure "${AZURE_RAW_IMAGE_PATH}" "${AZURE_IMAGE_PATH}"
upload/upload_azure.sh --disk-name "${AZURE_DISK_NAME}-setup-secure-boot" ""
secure-boot/azure/launch.sh -n "${AZURE_DISK_NAME}-setup-secure-boot" -d --secure-boot true --disk-name "${AZURE_DISK_NAME}-setup-secure-boot"
```
Ignore the running launch script and connect to the serial console once available.
The console shows the message "Verification failed: (0x1A) Security Violation". You can import the MOK certificate via the UEFI shell:
Press OK, then ENTER, then "Enroll key from disk".
Select the following key: `/EFI/loader/keys/auto/db.cer`.
Press Continue, then choose "Yes" to the question "Enroll the key(s)?".
Choose reboot.
Extract the VMGS from the running VM (this includes the MOK EFI variables) and delete the VM:
```sh
secure-boot/azure/extract_vmgs.sh --name "${AZURE_DISK_NAME}-setup-secure-boot"
secure-boot/azure/delete.sh --name "${AZURE_DISK_NAME}-setup-secure-boot"
```

- Choose secure boot PKI public keys (one of `pki_dev`, `pki_test`, `pki_prod`)
- `pki_dev` can be used for local image builds
- `pki_test` is used by the CI for non-release images

GCP
- Install `gcloud` and `gsutil` (see [here](https://cloud.google.com/sdk/docs/install))
- Login to GCP (see [here](https://cloud.google.com/sdk/docs/authorizing))

- `pki_dev` can be used for local image builds
- `pki_test` is used by the CI for non-release images
- `pki_prod` is used for release images
```sh
# set these variables
