[PATCH v4 0/8] selftests/kexec: add kexec tests

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

 



The kernel may be configured or an IMA policy specified on the boot
command line requiring the kexec kernel image signature to be verified.
At runtime a custom IMA policy may be loaded, replacing the policy
specified on the boot command line.  In addition, the arch specific
policy rules are dynamically defined based on the secure boot mode that
may require the kernel image signature to be verified.

The kernel image may have a PE signature, an IMA signature, or both. In
addition, there are two kexec syscalls - kexec_load and kexec_file_load
- but only the kexec_file_load syscall can verify signatures.

These kexec selftests verify that only properly signed kernel images are
loaded as required, based on the kernel config, the secure boot mode,
and the IMA runtime policy.

Loading a kernel image or kernel module requires root privileges.  To
run just the KEXEC selftests: sudo make TARGETS=kexec kselftest

Changelog v4:
- Moved the kexec tests to selftests/kexec, as requested by Dave Young.
- Removed the kernel module selftest from this patch set.
- Rewritten cover letter, removing reference to kernel modules.

Changelog v3:
- Updated tests based on Petr's review, including the defining a common
  test to check for root privileges.
- Modified config, removing the CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG requirement.
- Updated the SPDX license to GPL-2.0 based on Shuah's review.
- Updated the secureboot mode test to check the SetupMode as well, based
  on David Young's review.
