coordination #121876: [epic] Handle openQA review failures in Yam squad - SLE 15 SP5
[sporadic] Ensure to process grub from tianocore
Added by JRivrain 12 months ago.

Description
Motivation¶
Do not miss to process grub in these particular scenarios with tianocre to avoid failure in migrations:
sle-15-SP5-Migration-from-SLE15-SPx-aarch64-ha_migration_offline_dvd_sles15sp2_ltss@aarch64 fails in
grub_test
https://openqa.suse.de/tests/11029217#step/grub_test/37
(this is a different one where might need to send key 't'
Acceptance criteria¶
AC1: Ensure to process grub from tianocore not sending some accidental key
AC2: Figure out why send key 't' is required in the other failure
Suggestion¶
Debug sub handle_uefi_boot_disk_workaround most likely we are sending ret key there accidentally and going directly to login prompt

I will add your description as a comment to the ticket, too many questions there:
Grub looks wrong when booting from tianocore menu for multiple tests in migration, sporadically. we are getting "welcome to grub! - Please press 't' to show the boot menu on this console".
We need to figure out what is trigerring this. Maybe Grub menu is appearing but we can't see it, normally it should have timeout disabled but we see [here](https://openqa.suse.de/tests/11022525#step/grub_test/1) that it is not, instead there is a 60 seconds timeout.
It is not easy to say what happens from just looking at the test result:
- did openqa stall for more than 60 seconds ?
- did the "enter" key still be pressed at that moment from previous step ?
- is it a virtualization issue that prevents the bootloader from being loaded properly ?
- is it a bug in grub that appears sporadically ?

- Status changed from Workable to In Progress

- Status changed from In Progress to Resolved
