As a general rule, this is true of *every* well-behaved application in
a Linux system.

If you have a PKCS#11 provider configured with a p11-kit .module file,
then it should automatically be usable just by providing a suitable
RFC7512 PKCS#11 URI in place of a filename.

If you find any application which can't do that on Fedora, file a bug
and Cc me. It's violating the packaging guidelines.

Other distributions may catch up in a decade or two (hey, I hear Debian
might even get coherent SSL trust settings by 2020...)[unhandled content-type:application/x-pkcs7-signature]
