Question
Why do I receive the errors in my log?
Apr 4 16:38:42 185 kernel: Lockdown: cpkeyclt: /dev/mem,kmem,port is restricted; see man kernel_lockdown.7
Apr 4 16:38:45 185 kernel: Lockdown: envtype: /dev/mem,kmem,port is restricted; see man kernel_lockdown.7
Answer
These messages are from Secure Boot which is based on the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI), the low-level system management software that runs before handing over control to the operating system. Secure Boot allows only approved operating systems to run on the machine.
Disabling Secure Boot for your server through the BIOS will stop these messages.
