  • Instead of being enabled by default when SECURITY_LOADPIN is selected,
    provide an additional (default off) config to determine the boot time
    behavior. As before, the "loadpin.enabled=0/1" kernel parameter remains
    available.

  • This LSM enforces that kernel-loaded files (modules, firmware, etc)
    must all come from the same filesystem, with the expectation that
    such a filesystem is backed by a read-only device such as dm-verity
    or CDROM. This allows systems that have a verified and/or unchangeable
    filesystem to enforce module and firmware loading restrictions without
    needing to sign the files individually.
