[PATCH v5 0/2] let kexec_file_load use platform keyring to verify the kernel image

From: Kairui Song
Date: Mon Jan 21 2019 - 05:00:09 EST


This patch series adds a .platform_trusted_keys in system_keyring as the
reference to .platform keyring in integrity subsystem, when platform
keyring is being initialized it will be updated, so it will be
accessable for verifying PE signed kernel image.

This patch series let kexec_file_load use platform keyring as fall
back if it failed to verify the image against secondary keyring,
so the actually PE signature verify process will use keys provides
by firmware.

After this patch kexec_file_load will be able to verify a signed PE
bzImage using keys in platform keyring.

Tested in a VM with locally signed kernel with pesign and imported the
cert to EFI's MokList variable.

To test this patch series on latest kernel, you need to ensure this commit
is applied as there is an regression bug in sanity_check_segment_list():

Update from V4:
- Drop ifdef in security/integrity/digsig.c to make code clearer
- Fix a potential issue, set_platform_trusted_keys should not be
called when keyring initialization failed

Update from V3:
- Tweak and simplify commit message as suggested by Mimi Zohar

Update from V2:
- Use IS_ENABLED in kexec_file_load to judge if platform_trusted_keys
should be used for verifying image as suggested by Mimi Zohar

Update from V1:
- Make platform_trusted_keys static, and update commit message as suggested
by Mimi Zohar
- Always check if platform keyring is initialized before use it

integrity, KEYS: add a reference to platform keyring
kexec, KEYS: Make use of platform keyring for signature verify
