Because of system-specific EFI firmware limitations, EFI volatile variables may not be capable of holding the required contents of the Machine Owner Key (MOK) certificate store. Therefore, an EFI boot loader may pass the MOK certs via a EFI configuration table created specifically for this purpose to avoid this firmware limitation. An EFI configuration table is a simpler and more robust mechanism compared to EFI variables and is well suited for one-way passage of static information from a pre-OS environment to the kernel. This patch set does not remove the support for loading certs from the EFI MOK variables into the platform key ring. However, if both the EFI MOK config table and corresponding EFI MOK variables are present, the MOK table is used as the source of MOK certs. The contents of the individual named MOK config table entries are made available to user space via read-only sysfs binary files under: /sys/firmware/efi/mok-variables/ Lenny Szubowicz (3): efi: Support for MOK variable config table integrity: Move import of MokListRT certs to a separate routine integrity: Load certs from the EFI MOK config table arch/x86/kernel/setup.c | 1 + arch/x86/platform/efi/efi.c | 3 + drivers/firmware/efi/Makefile | 1 + drivers/firmware/efi/arm-init.c | 1 + drivers/firmware/efi/efi.c | 6 + drivers/firmware/efi/mokvar-table.c | 360 ++++++++++++++++++ include/linux/efi.h | 34 ++ security/integrity/platform_certs/load_uefi.c | 85 ++++- 8 files changed, 472 insertions(+), 19 deletions(-) create mode 100644 drivers/firmware/efi/mokvar-table.c -- 2.27.0
