[PATCH 10/14] KEYS: Add a crypto key request function

From: David Howells
Date: Mon Nov 28 2011 - 10:46:44 EST


Add a function by which crypto keys can be requested. A keyring is supplied
for the function to search (which can be, say, a system keyring containing keys
for kernel module signature checking). The function also provides a point at
which hardware key caches, such as a TPM, can be consulted.

not necessary if verify_sig_end() was called.


+To find a key to use for signature verification, the following function may be
+called:
+
+ struct key *request_crypto_key_for_PGP_sig(struct key *keyring,
+ const u8 *sig, size_t siglen);
+
+This parses the specified signature blob to find the signing key identity and
+then searches the given keyring for a matching key. It may also examine a
+hardware keystore (such as a TPM) for a usable signature matching service and
+generate a key to provide an access method to that service.
