How to list keys used for kexec

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

 



Hello,

apparently modules are verified by keys from 'secondary' keyring on all
platforms.

If you happen to know that it's this particular keyring, and know how
to list keyrings recursively you can find the keys that are used for
verifying modules.

However, for kexec we have

 - primary keyring on aarch64
 - platform keyring on s390
 - secondary AND platform keyring on x86

How is a user supposed to know which keys are used for kexec image
verification?

There is an implicit keyring that is ad-hoc constructed by the code that
does the kexec verification but there is no key list observable from
userspace that corresponds to this ad-hoc keyring only known to the kexec
code.

Can the kernel make the information which keys are used for what purpose
available to the user?

Thanks

Michal
