[Bug 1968131] Re: Starting VM with UEFI firmware fails with swtpm

[Martin Pitt]

Our CI uses a Jammy Ubuntu cloud image, but with quite a large list of
extra installed packages. To make sure it's not something specific to
that environment, I tried this:

  autopkgtest-buildvm-ubuntu-cloud
  qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -nographic -m 2048 -device virtio-rng-pci -drive file=autopkgtest-jammy-amd64.img,if=virtio -snapshot

Log in as ubuntu:ubuntu, then

   sudo apt update
   sudo eatmydata apt install -y virtinst libvirt-daemon-system
   sudo touch /var/lib/libvirt/empty.iso
   sudo virt-install --name t1 --os-variant fedora28 --memory 128 --wait -1 --noautoconsole --disk 'size=0.25,format=qcow2' --cdrom /var/lib/libvirt/empty.iso --boot uefi

it fails in exactly the same way. So (1) this confirms it's not our
Cockpit CI environment, and (2) provides a nice smoke autopkgtest for
libvirt.

Bug description:
  https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/8.0.0-1ubuntu6 introduced
  a recommendation to "swtpm", so this package now gets installed by
  default when installing libvirt. But this broke UEFI:

    touch /var/lib/libvirt/empty.iso
    virt-install --name t1 --os-variant fedora28 --memory 128 --wait -1 --noautoconsole --disk 'size=0.25,format=qcow2' --cdrom /var/lib/libvirt/empty.iso --boot uefi

  This fails:

  WARNING  Requested memory 128 MiB is less than the recommended 1024
  MiB for OS fedora28

  When I uninstall swtpm, the domain creation/starting works (of course
  it does not actually do anything due to the fake empty iso, but it
  does get past that bug).
