Commit 273df864cf746 ("ima: Check against blacklisted hashes for files with
modsig") introduced an appraise_flag option for referencing the blacklist
keyring. Any matching binary found on this keyring fails signature
validation. This flag only works with module appended signatures.
An important part of a PKI infrastructure is to have the ability to do
revocation at a later time should a vulnerability be found. Expand the
revocation flag usage to all appraisal functions. The flag is now
enabled by default. Setting the flag with an IMA policy has been
deprecated. Without a revocation capability like this in place, only
authenticity can be maintained. With this change, integrity can now be
achieved with digital signature based IMA appraisal.

v4 changes:
Fixed typo
Also did some performance testing with this patch. With the associative array
implementation used within the keyring code, there doesn't seem to be much of a
difference between doing an appraisal with an empty blacklist keyring and one
containing 1500 entries. At this time it is unknown how many entries a user
would place in this keyring, but this seemed like a bigger number than most use
cases. With the 1500 entries, there were only 7 lookups to get through the
entire list for a file not contained within it. For something that was
on the list, there was an average of 4 lookups and a single string compare.
Based on this testing, IMHO, there could be a lot more entries added to the
blacklist keyring without any real performance issues.
v3 changes:
No longer display appraise_flag=check_blacklist in the policy
v2 changes:
Update the "case Opt_apprase_flag"
Removed "appraise_flag=" in the powerpc arch specific policy rules
