Subject: [PATCH] arm64: kexec_file: use more system keyrings to verify kernel
image signature
Currently, when loading a kernel image via the kexec_file_load() system call, arm64 can only use the .builtin_trusted_keys keyring to verify a signature whereas x86 can use three more keyrings i.e. .secondary_trusted_keys, .machine and .platform keyrings. For example, one resulting problem is kexec'ing a kernel image would be rejected with the error "Lockdown: kexec: kexec of unsigned images is restricted; see man kernel_lockdown.7".
This patch set enables arm64 to make use of the same keyrings as x86 to verify the signature kexec'ed kernel image.

The commits contained in the 88b61b130334 ("Merge remote-tracking branch 'linux-integrity/kexec-keyrings' into next-integrity") should be applied in the proper order to avoid merge conflicts.
The third patch has a dependency on the first two commits, which were
initially in Andrew's tree. The third commit says, "Note later
patches are dependent on this patch so it should be backported to the stable tree as well."

Thanks for the explanation! Previously I thought the commit ids are different because Linus may have picked up the patches from the next tree and the git ids can only be determined in the last moment. But according to [2][3], Linus always merges a signed tag from a subsystem maintainer and unlike cherry-pick-up a merge could preserves the commit ids so a subsystem maintainer could know stable commit ids.

What s390 patch?
Now you confused me again...

Subject: [PATCH] arm64:kexec_file: use more system keyrings to verify kernel image signatureCurrently, when loading a kernel image via the
kexec_file_load()system call, arm64 can only use the .builtin_trusted_keys keyring to verify a signature whereas x86 can use three more keyrings i.e. .secondary_trusted_keys, .machine and .platform keyrings. For example, one resulting problem is kexec'ing a kernel image would be rejected with the error "Lockdown: kexec: kexec of unsigned images is restricted; see man kernel_lockdown.7".This patch set enables arm64 to make use of the same keyrings as x86 to verify the signature kexec'ed kernel image.

Ok, I think I now have all of this straightened out. If not, please let me know.

Sorry for the confusion. The correct commit ids are as follows,

Sorry, the first one should be 65d9a9a60fd7 ("kexec_file: drop weak attribute from functions").

They should be applied from top-down, i.e.
1. 65d9a9a60fd7 ("kexec_file: drop weak attribute from functions")
2. 689a71493bd2 ("kexec: clean up arch_kexec_kernel_verify_sig")
3. c903dae8941d ("kexec, KEYS: make the code in bzImage64_verify_sig generic")
But I notice stable/linux-5.19.y has already the first two prerequisites backported. So only the 3rd prerequisite is needed.
