[PATCH v6 03/13] KEYS: CA link restriction

Tue Sep 14 21:14:06 UTC 2021


Add a new link restriction.  Restrict the addition of keys in a keyring
based on the key to be added being a CA (self-signed).

Signed-off-by: Eric Snowberg <eric.snowberg at oracle.com>
---
v1: Initial version
v2: Removed secondary keyring references
v3: Removed restrict_link_by_system_trusted_or_ca
    Simplify restrict_link_by_ca - only see if the key is a CA
    Did not add __init in front of restrict_link_by_ca in case
      restriction could be resued in the future
v6: Unmodified from v3
