We're in the process of getting an openSUSE key for the shim loader and while I don't like it, it sounds requirement for that is having the kernel lockdown.
No, it's not a requirement at all. This is merely a "we want to try to restrict somethings if secure boot is enabled" set of features that some people feel is good to have in the kernel. These patches are nothing that the UEFI spec, nor the Microsoft signing group, requires in order to get a bootloader signed. thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+owner@opensuse.org
