[RFC PATCH] fw_lockdown: new micro LSM module to prevent loading unsigned firmware

From: Mimi Zohar <hidden>

Subsystem: security subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Paul Moore, James Morris, "Serge E. Hallyn", Linus Torvalds

Hi David,

If you are interested in preventing the loading of unsigned firmware,
the patch below is straight forward. ?The patch has ONLY been tested
with IMA-appraisal enabled, and works as intended - allowing only
signed firmware to be loaded.

If the kernel is locked down and IMA-appraisal is not enabled, prevent
loading of unsigned firmware.
