Actually in downstream code, I used arch_ima_get_secureboot() in load_uefi_certs() to prevent the mok be loaded when secure boot is disabled. Because the security of MOK relies on secure boot.
The downstream code likes this:
/* the MOK and MOKx can not be trusted when secure boot is disabled */ - if (!efi_enabled(EFI_SECURE_BOOT)) + if (!arch_ima_get_secureboot()) return 0;
The old EFI_SECURE_BOOT bit can only be available on x86_64, so I switch the code to to arch_ima_get_secureboot() for cross-architectures and sync with upstream api.
The load_uefi.c depends on CONFIG_INTEGRITY but not CONFIG_IMA. So load_uefi.c still be built when CONFIG_INTEGRITY=y and CONFIG_IMA=n. Then "implicit declaration of function 'arch_ima_get_secureboot'" is happened.
Thanks a lot! Joey Lee
