Introduce a new LSM called clavis.  The motivation behind this LSM is to
provide access control for system keys.  The access control list is
contained within a keyring call .clavis.  During boot if the clavis= boot
arg is supplied with a key id contained within any of the current system
keyrings (builtin, secondary, machine, or platform) it shall be used as
the root of trust for validating anything that is added to the ACL list.

The first restriction introduced with this LSM is the ability to enforce
key usage.  The kernel already has a notion of tracking key usage.  This
LSM adds the ability to enforce this usage based on the system owners
configuration.

Each system key may have one or more uses defined within the ACL list.
Until an entry is added to the .clavis keyring, no other system key may
be used for any other purpose.

Does this mean someone can reboot the host, boot another OS, store a key
id in UEFI, and force the root of trust key to be one other than what
the user lists in clavis= boot argument?

Never mind!  Saw the answer in patches 10 and 11, thanks.

Who is "the user", and precisely what does "owns' mean here?  Is it just
restating that it must be a key already in one of the builtin or secondary
or platform keyrings?

And this is done by simply loading it into the clavis keyring, right?

In the case where Clavis was not provided a key id during boot, root can 
add a single public key to the .clavis keyring anytime afterwards.  This 
key does not need to be in any of the system keyrings.  Once the key is 
added, the Clavis LSM is enabled. The root user must also own the private 
key, since this is required to do the ACL signing. I will try to clarify this better 
in the documentation. 

I wouldn't expect this to be the typical way Clavis would be used. I would 
also be interested in any feedback if enabling the Clavis LSM this way 
following boot should be removed.  If this were removed, Clavis could 
only be enabled when using the boot parameter.

> And this is done by simply loading it into the clavis keyring, right?

Correct.

Ooh, I see.  Own it as in be able to sign things with it.  Of course.  Thanks.

Right, I wasn't asking because I would want to use it that way, but
because it feels potentially dangerous :)

Yeah I don't know enough to give good guidance here.  I do worry about
UKIs enforcing only the built-in signed kernel command line and so preventing
a user from appending their own clavis= entry.  Not knowing how this
will end up getting deployed, I'm not sure which is the more important
issue.

+Clavis
+======
+
+Clavis is a Linux Security Module that provides mandatory access control to
+system kernel keys (i.e. builtin, secondary, machine and platform). These
+restrictions will prohibit keys from being used for validation. Upon boot, the
+Clavis LSM is provided a key id as a boot parameter.  This single key is then
+used as the root of trust for any access control modifications made going
+forward. Access control updates must be signed and validated by this key.
+
+Clavis has its own keyring.  All ACL updates are applied through this keyring.
+The update must be signed by the single root of trust key.
+
+When enabled, all system keys are prohibited from being used until an ACL is
+added for them.
+
+On UEFI platforms, the root of trust key shall survive a kexec. Trying to
+defeat or change it from the command line is not allowed.  The original boot
+parameter is stored in UEFI and will always be referenced following a kexec.
+
+The Clavis LSM contains a system keyring call .clavis.  It contains a single
+asymmetric key that is used to validate anything added to it.  This key can
+be added during boot and must be a preexisting system kernel key.  If the
+``clavis=`` boot parameter is not used, any asymmetric key the user owns
+can be added to enable the LSM.
+
+The only user space components are OpenSSL and the keyctl utility. A new
+key type call ``clavis_key_acl`` is used for ACL updates. Any number of signed
+``clavis_key_acl`` entries may be added to the .clavis keyring. The
+``clavis_key_acl`` contains the subject key identifier along with the allowed
+usage type for the key.
+
+The format is as follows:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+  XX:YYYYYYYYYYY
+
+  XX - Single byte of the key type
+	VERIFYING_MODULE_SIGNATURE            00
+	VERIFYING_FIRMWARE_SIGNATURE          01
+	VERIFYING_KEXEC_PE_SIGNATURE          02
+	VERIFYING_KEY_SIGNATURE               03
+	VERIFYING_KEY_SELF_SIGNATURE          04
+	VERIFYING_UNSPECIFIED_SIGNATURE       05
+  :  - ASCII colon
+  YY - Even number of hexadecimal characters representing the key id
+
+The ``clavis_key_acl`` must be S/MIME signed by the sole asymmetric key contained
+within the .clavis keyring.
+
+In the future if new features are added, new key types could be created.
+
+Usage Examples
+==============
+
+How to create a signing key:
+----------------------------
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+  cat <<EOF > clavis-lsm.genkey
+  [ req ]
+  default_bits = 4096
+  distinguished_name = req_distinguished_name
+  prompt = no
+  string_mask = utf8only
+  x509_extensions = v3_ca
+  [ req_distinguished_name ]
+  O = TEST
+  CN = Clavis LSM key
+  emailAddress = user@example.com
+  [ v3_ca ]
+  basicConstraints=CA:TRUE
+  subjectKeyIdentifier=hash
+  authorityKeyIdentifier=keyid:always,issuer
+  keyUsage=digitalSignature
+  EOF
+
+  openssl req -new -x509 -utf8 -sha256 -days 3650 -batch \
+        -config clavis-lsm.genkey -outform DER \
+        -out clavis-lsm.x509 -keyout clavis-lsm.priv
+
+How to get the Subject Key Identifier
+-------------------------------------
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+  openssl x509 -in ./clavis-lsm.x509 -inform der \
+        -ext subjectKeyIdentifier  -nocert \
+        | tail -n +2 | cut -f2 -d '='| tr -d ':'
+  4a00ab9f35c9dc3aed7c225d22bafcbd9285e1e8
+
+How to enroll the signing key into the MOK
+------------------------------------------
+
+The key must now be added to the machine or platform keyrings.  This
+indicates the key was added by the system owner. For kernels booted through
+shim, a first-stage UEFI boot loader, a key may be added to the machine keyring
+by doing:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+  mokutil --import ./clavis-lsm.x509
+
+and then rebooting and enrolling the key through MokManager.
+
+How to enable the Clavis LSM
+----------------------------
+
+Add the key id to the ``clavis=`` boot parameter.  With the example above the
+key id is the subject key identifier: 4a00ab9f35c9dc3aed7c225d22bafcbd9285e1e8
+
+Add the following boot parameter:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+  clavis=4a00ab9f35c9dc3aed7c225d22bafcbd9285e1e8
+
+After booting there will be a single key contained in the .clavis keyring:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+  keyctl show %:.clavis
+  Keyring
+    254954913 ----swrv      0     0  keyring: .clavis
+    301905375 ---lswrv      0     0   \_ asymmetric: TEST: Clavis LSM key: 4a00ab9f35c9dc3aed7c225d22bafcbd9285e1e8
+
+The original ``clavis=`` boot parameter will persist across any kexec. Changing it or
+removing it has no effect.
+
+
+How to sign an entry to be added to the .clavis keyring:
+--------------------------------------------------------
+
+In this example we have 3 keys in the machine keyring.  Our Clavis LSM key, a
+key we want to use for kernel verification and a key we want to use for module
+verification.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+  keyctl show %:.machine
+  Keyring
+    999488265 ---lswrv      0     0  keyring: .machine
+    912608009 ---lswrv      0     0   \_ asymmetric: TEST: Module Key: 17eb8c5bf766364be094c577625213700add9471
+    646229664 ---lswrv      0     0   \_ asymmetric: TEST: Kernel Key: b360d113c848ace3f1e6a80060b43d1206f0487d
+   1073737099 ---lswrv      0     0   \_ asymmetric: TEST: Clavis LSM key: 4a00ab9f35c9dc3aed7c225d22bafcbd9285e1e8
+
+To update the .clavis kerying ACL list, first create a file containing the
+key usage type followed by a colon and the key id that we want to allow to
+validate that usage.  In the first example we are saying key
+17eb8c5bf766364be094c577625213700add9471 is allowed to validate kernel modules.
+In the second example we are saying key b360d113c848ace3f1e6a80060b43d1206f0487d
+is allowed to validate signed kernels.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+  echo "00:17eb8c5bf766364be094c577625213700add9471" > module-acl.txt
+  echo "02:b360d113c848ace3f1e6a80060b43d1206f0487d" > kernel-acl.txt
+
+Now both these files must be signed by the key contained in the .clavis keyring:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+  openssl smime -sign -signer clavis-lsm.x509 -inkey clavis-lsm.priv -in module-acl.txt \
+        -out module-acl.pkcs7 -binary -outform DER -nodetach -noattr
+
+  openssl smime -sign -signer clavis-lsm.x509 -inkey clavis-lsm.priv -in kernel-acl.txt \
+        -out kernel-acl.pkcs7 -binary -outform DER -nodetach -noattr
+
+Afterwards the ACL list in the clavis keyring can be updated:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+  keyctl padd clavis_key_acl "" %:.clavis < module-acl.pkcs7
+  keyctl padd clavis_key_acl "" %:.clavis < kernel-acl.pkcs7
+
+  keyctl show %:.clavis
+
+  Keyring
+    254954913 ----swrv      0     0  keyring: .clavis
+    301905375 ---lswrv      0     0   \_ asymmetric: TEST: Clavis LSM key: 4a00ab9f35c9dc3aed7c225d22bafcbd9285e1e8
+   1013065475 --alswrv      0     0   \_ clavis_key_acl: 02:b360d113c848ace3f1e6a80060b43d1206f0487d
+    445581284 --alswrv      0     0   \_ clavis_key_acl: 00:17eb8c5bf766364be094c577625213700add9471
+
+Now the 17eb8c5bf766364be094c577625213700add9471 key can be used for
+validating kernel modules and the b360d113c848ace3f1e6a80060b43d1206f0487d
+key can be used to validate signed kernels.
