[PATCH v4 09/13] x86/cpu: Add a configuration and command line option for Key Locker

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Add CONFIG_X86_KEYLOCKER to gate whether Key Locker is initialized at boot.
The option is selected by the Key Locker cipher module CRYPTO_AES_KL (to be
added in a later patch).

Add a new command line option "nokeylocker" to optionally override the
default CONFIG_X86_KEYLOCKER=y behavior.
