Subject: [PATCH 17/18] certs: Fix blacklist flag type confusion

KEY_FLAG_KEEP is not meant to be passed to keyring_alloc() or key_alloc(),
as these only take KEY_ALLOC_* flags. KEY_FLAG_KEEP has the same value as
KEY_ALLOC_BYPASS_RESTRICTION, but fortunately only key_create_or_update()
uses it. LSMs using the key_alloc hook don't check that flag.

KEY_FLAG_KEEP is then ignored but fortunately (again) the root user cannot
write to the blacklist keyring, so it is not possible to remove a key/hash
from it.

Fix this by adding a KEY_ALLOC_SET_KEEP flag that tells key_alloc() to set
KEY_FLAG_KEEP on the new key. blacklist_init() can then, correctly, pass
this to keyring_alloc().

We can also use this in ima_mok_init() rather than setting the flag
manually.

Note that this doesn't fix an observable bug with the current
implementation but it is required to allow addition of new hashes to the
blacklist in the future without making it possible for them to be removed.

No, the current thread contains an old version with an error in the
patch for ima_mok_init(). Please take the last series (fixing this
patch) that I rebased on your next branch:
https://lore.kernel.org/keyrings/[email protected]/

Mickaël

Is there a quick fix for the error? If I replace your patches I'll probably
have to withdraw my pull request for this cycle.

I think you just replied to the wrong thread. You have the correct
commit(s) in your tree here:

For all of these you can add my Reviewed-by or Acked-by.

Thanks!

Are you referring to the comma rather than a bar here?

KEY_ALLOC_NOT_IN_QUOTA,
+ KEY_ALLOC_SET_KEEP,

I fixed that in my branch:

- KEY_ALLOC_NOT_IN_QUOTA,
+ KEY_ALLOC_NOT_IN_QUOTA |
+ KEY_ALLOC_SET_KEEP,

I'll repost the series.

Yes, it is correct now, I just replied to the previous email. :)

No need for that, I checked your commits, they're good:
