[PATCH 0/7] Add CA enforcement keyring restrictions

[Eric Snowberg]

A key added to the ima keyring must be signed by a key contained within 
either the builtin trusted or secondary trusted keyrings. Currently, there are 
CA restrictions described in IMA_KEYRINGS_PERMIT_SIGNED_BY_BUILTIN_OR_SECONDARY,
but these restrictions are not enforced within code. Therefore, keys within 
either the builtin or secondary may not be a CA and could be used to
vouch for an ima key.

The machine keyring can not be used as another trust anchor for adding keys 
to the ima keyring, since CA enforcement does not currently exist [1]. This 
would expand the current integrity gap.

Introduce a new root of trust key flag to close this integrity gap for
all keyrings.  The first key type to use this is X.509.  When a X.509 
certificate is self signed, contains kernCertSign Key Usage and contains 
the CA bit, the new flag is set.  Introduce new keyring restrictions 
that not only validates a key is signed by a key contained within the 
keyring, but also validates the key has the new root of trust key flag 
set.  Use this new restriction for keys added to the ima keyring.  Now 
that we have CA enforcement, allow the machine keyring to be used as another 
trust anchor for the ima keyring.

To recap, all keys that previously loaded into the builtin, secondary or
machine keyring will still load after applying this series.  Keys
contained within these keyrings may carry the root of trust flag. The
ima keyring will use the new root of trust restriction to validate
CA enforcement. Other keyrings that require a root of trust could also 
use this in the future.
