Subject: [PATCH v2] module: Allow to disable modsign in kernel cmdline
Date:   Tue, 28 Apr 2020 13:05:23 +0800
Message-Id: <20200428050523.47253-1-tianjia.zhang@linux.alibaba.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

This option allows to disable modsign completely at the beginning,
and turn off by set the kernel cmdline `no_modsig_enforce` when
`CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORCE` is enabled.

Yet another change allows to always show the current status of
modsign through `/sys/module/module/parameters/sig_enforce`.
