Subject: [PATCH v5 02/16] fs/kernel_read_file: Remove FIRMWARE_EFI_EMBEDDED enum
Date: Fri, 2 Oct 2020 10:38:14 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201002173828.2099543-3-keescook@chromium.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201002173828.2099543-1-keescook@chromium.org>
The "FIRMWARE_EFI_EMBEDDED" enum is a "where", not a "what". It
should not be distinguished separately from just "FIRMWARE", as this
confuses the LSMs about what is being loaded. Additionally, there was
no actual validation of the firmware contents happening.
Fixes: e4c2c0ff00ec ("firmware: Add new platform fallback mechanism and firmware_request_platform()")
Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>
