    integrity: Always reference the blacklist keyring with appraisal · f20765fd

    Commit 273df864 ("ima: Check against blacklisted hashes for files with
    modsig") introduced an appraise_flag option for referencing the blacklist
    keyring.  Any matching binary found on this keyring fails signature
    validation. This flag only works with module appended signatures.
    
    An important part of a PKI infrastructure is to have the ability to do
    revocation at a later time should a vulnerability be found.  Expand the
    revocation flag usage to all appraisal functions. The flag is now
    enabled by default. Setting the flag with an IMA policy has been
    deprecated. Without a revocation capability like this in place, only
    authenticity can be maintained. With this change, integrity can now be
    achieved with digital signature based IMA appraisal.
