Subject[RFC PATCH] fips: check whether a module registering an alg or template is signed
fips mode needs to prevent unsigned modules from registering crypto
algorithms, and currently panics if an unsigned module is attempted to
be loaded. Instead, forbid (by returning -EINVAL) registering a crypto
alg or template if fips mode is enabled and the module signature is not
valid.

crypto_sig_check should return 1 (and allow the registration) if any
of the following are true:
1/ fips is not enabled (but CONFIG_CRYPTO_FIPS is enabled.)
2/ the algorithm is built into the kernel (THIS_MODULE == NULL)
3/ the algorithm is in a module, and the module sig check passes
and fail in any of the other cases.

Checking in crypto_check_alg and crypto_register_template seems to hit
the callpoints as far as I can see.

rusty,

How about something like this? It keeps the FIPS mess in the
crypto/fips.c file (aside from something that goes away entirely in the
!CONFIG_CRYPTO_FIPS case.)

regards, Kyle
