Subject: [PATCH] efivarfs: force RO when remounting if SetVariable is not supported
Date: Fri,  9 Jun 2023 12:45:32 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230609094532.562934-1-ilias.apalodimas@linaro.org> (raw)

If SetVariable at runtime is not supported by the firmware we never assign
a callback for that function. At the same time mount the efivarfs as
RO so no one can call that.  However, we never check the permission flags
when someone remounts the filesystem as RW. As a result this leads to a
crash looking like this:

$ mount -o remount,rw /sys/firmware/efi/efivars
$ efi-updatevar -f PK.auth PK

Fix this by adding a .reconfigure() function to the fs operations which
we can use to check the requested flags and deny anything that's not RO
if the firmware doesn't implement SetVariable at runtime.
