[PATCH v10 1/7] KEYS: trusted: allow use of TEE as backend without TCG_TPM support

Ahmad Fatoum
2022-05-13T14:59:10Z

With recent rework, trusted keys are no longer limited to TPM as trust
source. The Kconfig symbol is unchanged however leading to a few issues:

- TCG_TPM is required, even if only TEE is to be used
- Enabling TCG_TPM, but excluding it from available trusted sources
is not possible
- TEE=m && TRUSTED_KEYS=y will lead to TEE support being silently
dropped, which is not the best user experience

Remedy these issues by introducing two new boolean Kconfig symbols:
TRUSTED_KEYS_TPM and TRUSTED_KEYS_TEE with the appropriate
dependencies.

Any new code depending on the TPM trusted key backend in particular
or symbols exported by it will now need to explicitly state that it

depends on TRUSTED_KEYS && TRUSTED_KEYS_TPM

The latter to ensure the dependency is built and the former to ensure
it's reachable for module builds. There are no such users yet.

v9 -> v10:
- added Michael's and John's Tested-by
v8 -> v9:
- no changes
v7 -> v8:
- add Pankaj's Reviewed-by and Tested-by
v6 -> v7:
- s/Tested-By/Tested-by/
v5 -> v6:
- Rebased on asym_tpm removal
v4 -> v5:
- collected Jarkko's Reviewed-by
v3 -> v4:
- rebased on top of Andreas' regression fix and pulled it back
into series
v2 -> v3:
- factored this patch out as a fix for backporting
v1 -> v2:
- Move rest of TPM-related selects from TRUSTED_KEYS to
TRUSTED_KEYS_TPM (Sumit)
- Remove left-over line in Makefile (Sumit)
- added Fixes: tag
- adjust commit message to reference the regression reported
by Andreas
- have ASYMMETRIC_TPM_KEY_SUBTYPE depend on TRUSTED_KEYS_TPM,
because it references global symbols that are exported
by the trusted key TPM backend.
