Luis, is the security_kernel_post_read_file LSM hook in firmware_loading_store() still needed after this patch? Should it be calling security_kernel_load_data() instead?That's up to Kees to decide as he added that hook, and knows what LSMs may be doing with it. From my perspective it is confusing to have that hook there so I think it could be removed now. Kees?Commit?6593d92 ("firmware_class: perform new LSM checks") references two methods of loading firmware -??filesystem-found firmware and demand-loaded blobs. ?I assume this call in firmware_loading_store() is the demand-loaded blobs. ?Does that method still exist? ?Is it still being used?
Yeah its the stupid sysfs interface. So likely loadpin needs porting as you IMA as you did.
