>Among the changes being considered for the in-development Fedora 45 is a lightened version of the GRUB UEFI bootloader that would focus on being a minimal implementation suitable for confidential computing. Red Hat engineers are considering a separate, minimal package of the GRUB bootloader that would be focused just on UEFI boot, UEFI Secure Boot enabled, and the bare minimal number of built-in modules while also being able to handle Unified Kernel Images (UKIs) and the Bootloader Specification (BLS) files. The standard GRUB bootloader would remain available and the default in Fedora Linux while this lighter version of GRUB would be focused on confidential compute VMs. Due to confidential VMs relying on measured boot and remote attestation, the hope with the "GRUB light" is to maintain the same TPM PCR values longer and thus leading to a more stable confidential computing experience.
