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.Thank you for testing! Could this be translated into a "tested-by" "(for w/lockdown patches)"?Yeah, that's fine. To be clear about what I tested, I've confirmed that it doesn't interfere with requiring signed modules under lockdown with CONFIG_IMA_ARCH_POLICY=n and IMA appraisal enabled.

Oh! You've disabled the coordination of the two signature verification methods. Any chance you could test with "CONFIG_IMA_ARCH_POLICY" enabled? Mimi
