I suggested only loading the CA keys stored in the MOK db onto the MOK
keyring.  Like the builtin trusted keyring, the MOK keyring would also
be linked to the secondary keyring.   Assuming the secondary keyring is
defined, all other properly signed MOK db keys  - signed by keys on the
builtin, secondary or MOK keyring - would be loaded onto the secondary
keyring.

As previously discussed, this might require reading the MOK db twice -
once to load the CA keys on the MOK keyring, a second time to load the
remaining properly signed keys onto the secondary keyring.


thanks,

Mimi
