Require signed kernel modules on systems with secure boot mode enabled. To coordinate between appended kernel module signatures and IMA signatures, only define an IMA MODULE_CHECK policy rule if CONFIG_MODULE_SIG is not enabled. This patch defines a function named set_module_sig_required() and renames is_module_sig_enforced() to is_module_sig_enforced_or_required(). The call to set_module_sig_required() is dependent on CONFIG_IMA_ARCH_POLICY being enabled. Signed-off-by: Mimi Zohar <zohar@linux.ibm.com>
With respect to interactions with the kernel lockdown patches, this looks better than the patches I saw previously. I don't feel like I know enough about what's going on with IMA to ack the patch, but I feel confident that it's at least not going to break signature enforcement for us. Thanks, Seth
