From: Mat Martineau Date: Fri, 6 May 2016 22:38:17 +0000 (-0700) Subject: KEYS: Add an optional lookup_restriction hook to key_type X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=efba797b977c99bc6e0c301299272c80fb8b287f;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git KEYS: Add an optional lookup_restriction hook to key_type The restrict_link functions used to validate keys as they are linked to a keyring can be associated with specific key types. Each key type may be loaded (or not) at runtime, so lookup of restrict_link functions needs to be part of the key type implementation to ensure that the requested keys can be examined.
