Subject: [RFC PATCH v1 0/4] keys: introduce key_extract_material helper
Date:   Thu, 22 Jul 2021 11:17:58 +0200
Message-Id: <cover.b2fdd70b830d12853b12a12e32ceb0c8162c1346.1626945419.git-series.a.fatoum@pengutronix.de>

While keys of differing type have a common struct key definition, there is
no common scheme to the payload and key material extraction differs.

For kernel functionality that supports different key types,
this means duplicated code for key material extraction and because key type
is discriminated by a pointer to a global, users need to replicate
reachability checks as well, so builtin code doesn't depend on a key
type symbol offered by a module.

Make this easier by adding a common helper with initial support for
user, logon, encrypted and trusted keys.

This series contains two example of its use: dm-crypt uses it to reduce
boilerplate and ubifs authentication uses it to gain support for trusted
and encrypted keys alongside the already supported logon keys.

Looking forward to your feedback,
Ahmad
