From: David Howells <dhowells@...hat.com>
To: dmitry.kasatkin@...el.com, zohar@...ux.vnet.ibm.com
Cc: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, keyrings@...ux-nfs.org,
linux-security-module@...r.kernel.org, linux-crypto@...r.kernel.org
Subject: [PATCH 3/3] KEYS: Add a 'trusted' flag and a 'trusted only' flag
Add KEY_FLAG_TRUSTED to indicate that a key either comes from a trusted source
or had a cryptographic signature chain that led back to a trusted key the
kernel already possessed.
Add KEY_FLAGS_TRUSTED_ONLY to indicate that a keyring will only accept links to
keys marked with KEY_FLAGS_TRUSTED.
