[PATCH 0/5] Module loading error handling improvements

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This series addresses several issues related to module loading error
handling, particularly around force loading and signature verification.

The most critical fix is in patch 1, which resolves a bug where signed
modules were incorrectly rejected when loaded with the -f flag (force
load).

The others improve the user experience when troubleshooting
module loading issues while maintaining the security guarantees of
module signing.

Jinchao Wang (5):
  module: Fix module_sig_check() for modules with ignored modversions/vermagic
  module: signing: Use pr_err for signature rejection
  module: show why force load fails
  module: centralize no-versions force load check
  module: separate vermagic and livepatch checks
