EVM: Allow userspace to signal an RSA key has been loaded

EVM will only perform validation once a key has been loaded. This key
may either be a symmetric trusted key (for HMAC validation and creation)
or the public half of an asymmetric key (for digital signature
validation). The /sys/kernel/security/evm interface allows userland to
signal that a symmetric key has been loaded, but does not allow userland
to signal that an asymmetric public key has been loaded.

This patch extends the interface to permit userspace to pass a bitmask
of loaded key types. It also allows userspace to block loading of a
symmetric key in order to avoid a compromised system from being able to
load an additional key type later.

-               EVM depends on the Kernel Key Retention System to provide it
-               with a trusted/encrypted key for the HMAC-sha1 operation.
-               The key is loaded onto the root's keyring using keyctl.  Until
-               EVM receives notification that the key has been successfully
-               loaded onto the keyring (echo 1 > <securityfs>/evm), EVM
-               can not create or validate the 'security.evm' xattr, but
-               returns INTEGRITY_UNKNOWN.  Loading the key and signaling EVM
-               should be done as early as possible.  Normally this is done
-               in the initramfs, which has already been measured as part
-               of the trusted boot.  For more information on creating and
-               loading existing trusted/encrypted keys, refer to:
-               Documentation/keys-trusted-encrypted.txt.  (A sample dracut
-               patch, which loads the trusted/encrypted key and enables
-               EVM, is available from http://linux-ima.sourceforge.net/#EVM.)
+               EVM supports two classes of security.evm. The first is
+               an HMAC-sha1 generated locally with a
+               trusted/encrypted key stored in the Kernel Key
+               Retention System. The second is a digital signature
+               generated either locally or remotely using an
+               asymmetric key. These keys are loaded onto root's
+               keyring using keyctl, and EVM is then enabled by
+               echoing a value to <securityfs>/evm:
+
+               1: enable HMAC validation and creation
+               2: enable digital signature validation
+               3: enable HMAC and digital signature validation and HMAC
+                  creation
+
+               Further writes will be blocked if HMAC support is enabled or
+               if bit 32 is set:
+
+               echo 0x80000002 ><securityfs>/evm
+
+               will enable digital signature validation and block
+               further writes to <securityfs>/evm.
+
+               Until this is done, EVM can not create or validate the
+               'security.evm' xattr, but returns INTEGRITY_UNKNOWN.
+               Loading keys and signaling EVM should be done as early
+               as possible.  Normally this is done in the initramfs,
+               which has already been measured as part of the trusted
+               boot.  For more information on creating and loading
+               existing trusted/encrypted keys, refer to:
+               Documentation/keys-trusted-encrypted.txt. Both dracut
+               (via 97masterkey and 98integrity) and systemd (via
+               core/ima-setup) have support for loading keys at boot
+               time.
