Allow to have certificate appended to the private key of `--key'
specified (PEM) file (for v2 signing) to facilitate reading of keyid
from the associated cert. This will allow users to have private and
public key as a single file. There is no check that public key form the
cert matches associated private key.

So the private key is assumed to be in PEM format. I suppose if there's 
an appended X509 in the private key file as well then only one function 
should be necessary to extract the x509 cert from the files. That 
function should be able to handle PEM and DER format at the same time. 
Have you tried extracting the x509 cert from the private key file using 
that other function in 2/3 yet?

Yes, even though README says something different.

Excuse me, I don't understand what you talking about in this note.

2/3 does not read private keys. Where and why should be one function?
And what other function?

It should be possible to combine your  functions extract_keyid (2/3) and 
read_keyid (3/3) into a single function that can handle PEM files 
containing X509 certs as well as DER files. It's two times very similar 
code and the function that can handle DER and PEM should be able to 
handle PEM files with private keys + X509 certs.

I see. There should be very generic function that can read fd, FILE,
bio, and memory region, also can parse DER, PEM, and combined PEMs.

Implemented in [PATCH v3 2/3], but now there are some problems.

ima_read_keyid() is called with different intentions from evmctl and
from libimaevm. Call from evmctl is explicit user intention (to read
cert) and should produce error messages for failures. Call from
calc_keyid_v2() is best effort (and can be thought as a side effect)
and should be as quiet as possible. Also, in the second case it shall not
try to load DER certificate.
