[PATCH v6] efi: Do not import certificates from UEFI Secure Boot for T2 Macs

From: Aditya Garg
Date: Fri Apr 15 2022 - 02:19:23 EST


From: Aditya Garg <gargaditya08@xxxxxxxx>

On Apple T2 Macs, when Linux attempts to read the db and dbx efi variables
at early boot to load UEFI Secure Boot certificates, a page fault occurs
in Apple firmware code and EFI runtime services are disabled with the
following logs:

[Firmware Bug]: Page fault caused by firmware at PA: 0xffffb1edc0068000
WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 104 at arch/x86/platform/efi/quirks.c:735 efi_crash_gracefully_on_page_fault+0x50/0xf0
(Removed some logs from here)

This patch skips reading these UEFI variables and thus prevents the crash.
