[PATCH v5 2/4] powerpc: expose secure variables to userspace via sysfs

Nayna Jain nayna at linux.ibm.com
Fri Oct 25 11:47:27 AEDT 2019


PowerNV secure variables, which store the keys used for OS kernel
verification, are managed by the firmware. These secure variables need to
be accessed by the userspace for addition/deletion of the certificates.

This patch adds the sysfs interface to expose secure variables for PowerNV
secureboot. The users shall use this interface for manipulating
the keys stored in the secure variables.

+Contact:	Nayna Jain <nayna at linux.ibm.com>
+Description:	Each secure variable is represented as a directory named as
