Ok, I merged some of this (after our previous accidentally-off-list
discussion).
You previously wrote:

It's a line ball, but I think consistency wins. Not a validly signed
module => panic.
The code becomes pretty straightforward then:
if (!err) {
info->sig_ok = true;
return 0;
}
if (fips_enabled)
panic("Module verification failed with error %d in FIPS mode\n",
err);
if (err == -ENOKEY && !sig_enforce)
err = 0;
return err;
In preparation, I've changed that below (and also, fixed up the -ENOKEY
which I said I'd do, and didn't).
Thanks,
Rusty.
PS. Agree with Kconfig options move, but I'll do that in separate patch.

Subject: module: signature checking hook
We do a very simple search for a particular string appended to the module
(which is cache-hot and about to be SHA'd anyway). There's both a config
option and a boot parameter which control whether we accept (and taint) or
fail with unsigned modules.
(Useful feedback and tweaks by David Howells <dhowells@...hat.com>)
