|

|
|
This option provides support for retaining authentication tokens and
|
||
|
|
access keys in the kernel.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It also includes provision of methods by which such keys might be
|
||
|
|
associated with a process so that network filesystems, encryption
|
||
|
|
support and the like can find them.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Furthermore, a special type of key is available that acts as keyring:
|
||
|
|
a searchable sequence of keys. Each process is equipped with access
|
||
|
|
to five standard keyrings: UID-specific, GID-specific, session,
|
||
|
|
process and thread.
|
||
|
|
|

|
|
If you are unsure as to whether this is required, answer N.

help
|
||
|
|
This option provides a register of persistent per-UID keyrings,
|
||
|
|
primarily aimed at Kerberos key storage. The keyrings are persistent
|
||
|
|
in the sense that they stay around after all processes of that UID
|
||
|
|
have exited, not that they survive the machine being rebooted.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A particular keyring may be accessed by either the user whose keyring
|
||
|
|
it is or by a process with administrative privileges. The active
|
||
|
|
LSMs gets to rule on which admin-level processes get to access the
|
||
|
|
cache.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Keyrings are created and added into the register upon demand and get
|
||
|
|
removed if they expire (a default timeout is set upon creation).

This option provides support for creating, sealing, and unsealing

keys in the kernel. Trusted keys are random number symmetric keys,

generated and RSA-sealed by the TPM. The TPM only unseals the keys,

if the boot PCRs and other criteria match. Userspace will only ever

This option provides support for create/encrypting/decrypting keys

in the kernel. Encrypted keys are kernel generated random numbers,

which are encrypted/decrypted with a 'master' symmetric key. The
|

|
|
'master' key can be either a trusted-key or user-key type.

Userspace only ever sees/stores encrypted blobs.
