[RFC PATCH v12 06/20] ipe: introduce 'boot_verified' as a trust provider
From: Fan Wu
Date: Tue Jan 30 2024 - 17:39:12 EST
IPE is designed to provide system level trust guarantees, this usually
implies that trust starts from bootup with a hardware root of trust,
which validates the bootloader. After this, the bootloader verifies
the kernel and the initramfs.
As there's no currently supported integrity method for initramfs, and
it's typically already verified by the bootloader. This patch introduces
a new IPE property `boot_verified` which allows author of IPE policy to
indicate trust for files from initramfs.
The implementation of this feature utilizes the newly added
`unpack_initramfs` hook. This hook marks the superblock of the rootfs
after the initramfs has been unpacked into it.
Since the rootfs is never unmounted during system operation, it is
advised to switch to a different policy that doesn't rely on the
`boot_verified` property after the real rootfs is in charge.
This ensures that the trust policies remain relevant and effective
throughout the system's operation.
