Allow LSMs and IMA to differentiate between different methods of
firmware loading (eg. direct loading, sysfs fallback) and to
differentiate/coordinate between signature verification methods (eg.
regdb, IMA-appraisal).
In addition, the last two patches address the pre-allocated buffer. The
first of these patches doesn't differentiate between reading the
firmware first into kernel memory and verifying the kernel signature,
versus reading the firmware directly into a pre-allocated buffer.
The last patch, which is posted as an RFC, questions whether the device
can access the pre-allocated buffer before the kernel signature has been
verified.
Mimi Zohar (6):
firmware: permit LSMs and IMA to fail firmware sysfs fallback loading
ima: prevent sysfs fallback firmware loading
firmware: differentiate between signed regulatory.db and other
firmware
ima: coordinate with signed regulatory.db
ima: verify kernel firmware signatures when using a preallocated
buffer
ima: prevent loading firmware into a pre-allocated buffer
