Skip disk/encryption/detect on platforms where FDE is not available. #1474

Open amalinowski75 opened 2 months ago

amalinowski75 commented 2 months ago

Enhancement Proposal

There RPI machines that keep failing at disk/encryption/detect because there is no FDE there. This test should be skipped as it doesn't make sense to spend time on reviewing this obvious fails. Sample env: http://10.102.156.15:8080/job/cert-cm4l-arm64-pi-kernel-24-beta/7/

For reference, it's not only RPI's that are missing FDE. For instance:

aaeon-lookout-canyon-ehl
aaeon-lookout-canyon-tgl
austin-charlotte-001
dawson-j-uc24

are missing them too.

Availability of FDE is dependent on Secure Boot (or custom solution for ARM devices), TPM Hardware support etc and typically we are using rebuilt images during maintenance testing that do not support all these features. Therefore the tests make sense during QA but not later on.
