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>)
