[PATCH 2/2] Fix kexec forbidding kernels signed with keys in the secondary keyring to boot

From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
Date: 2018-08-16 13:05:30
Also in: kexec, keyrings, linux-security-module, lkml
Subsystem: the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen

From: Yannik Sembritzki <redacted>

The split of .system_keyring into .builtin_trusted_keys and
.secondary_trusted_keys broke kexec, thereby preventing kernels signed by
keys which are now in the secondary keyring from being kexec'd.

Fix this by passing VERIFY_USE_SECONDARY_KEYRING to
verify_pefile_signature().

Fixes: d3bfe84129f6 ("certs: Add a secondary system keyring that can be added to dynamically")
