In preparation for returning either the existing
restrict_link_by_builtin_and_secondary_trusted or the upcoming
restriction that includes the trusted builtin, secondary and
machine keys, to improve clarity, rename
get_builtin_and_secondary_restriction to get_secondary_restriction.

This is wrong order.

You should first do the changes that make the old name
obsolete and only after that have a patch that does the
rename. Unfortunately, this patch cannot possibly acked
with the current order.

I can change the order, but I'm confused how this would work for a git bisect. 
If the rename happens afterwards, now two patches will always need to be 
reverted instead of the possibility of one.  Is this your expectation?

I'd drop this patch altogether. Old name is a bit ugly but does it matter
all that much?

You already 16 patches without this.

If the keyring name change is independent of any other changes, as
Jarkko suggested, nothing would break.

> all that much?

The name "get_builtin_and_secondary_restriction" implies trust based on
keys in the ".builtin_trusted_keys" and ".secondary_trusted_keys"
keyrings.  This patch set is extending that to include keys on the new
".machine" keyring, by linking it to the secondary keyring.  Is leaving
the name unchanged really an option?

Agreed, it's a lot.  In the past, I've asked Eric to see if some of
them could be squashed.

Yes, it is an option, as long as it is documented correctly in the
prepending kdoc the symbol name does not matter all that much..

The series grew based on requests added in each round.  How about
I drop IMA support from the next round?  This would eliminate nine patches
from the series (5, 6, 7, 9-14), leaving six patches to introduce and enable 
the new machine keyring (3, 4, 8, 15-17).  The first two patches could 
be taken today.  The only reason the first two are included is to get this series 
through the kernel test robot.

This would allow the machine keyring to be used for module signing.  Afterwards 
I could introduce the CA restriction behind another Kconfig in a different series to 
add back IMA support. Let me know if this would be a better approach.

Once you allow ALL the MOK keys to be loaded onto the .machine keyring,
limiting which keys should be loaded will change the existing expected
behavior.  So you indeed would need to define a new config option.

Your patch set links the ".machine" keyring to the
".secondary_trusted_keys" kerying. Based on
IMA_KEYRINGS_PERMIT_SIGNED_BY_BUILTIN_OR_SECONDARY config being
enabled, determines whether IMA trusts the secondary keyring.

From IMA_KEYRINGS_PERMIT_SIGNED_BY_BUILTIN_OR_SECONDARY:
        help
          Keys may be added to the IMA or IMA blacklist keyrings, if
the
          key is validly signed by a CA cert in the system built-in or
          secondary trusted keyrings.

          Intermediate keys between those the kernel has compiled in
and the
          IMA keys to be added may be added to the system secondary
keyring,
          provided they are validly signed by a key already resident in
the
          built-in or secondary trusted keyrings.

A dependency to prevent enabling this configuration, if the ".machine"
keyring is enabled, would need to be defined.

thanks,

Mimi
