Subject: [RFC 09/11] hornet: Introduce gen_sig
Date: Wed, 10 Dec 2025 18:12:04 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251211021257.1208712-10-bboscaccy@linux.microsoft.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251211021257.1208712-1-bboscaccy@linux.microsoft.com>
This introduces the gen_sig tool. It creates a pkcs#7 signature of a
data payload. Additionally it appends a signed attribute containing a
set of hashes.
Typical usage is to provide a payload containing the light skeleton
ebpf syscall program binary and it's associated maps, which can be
extracted from the auto-generated skeleton header.
