KEYS: trusted: Debugging as a feature
TPM_DEBUG, and other similar flags, are a non-standard way to specify a
feature in Linux kernel. Introduce CONFIG_TRUSTED_KEYS_DEBUG for trusted
keys, and use it to replace these ad-hoc feature flags.
Given that trusted keys debug dumps can contain sensitive data, harden the
feature as follows:
1. In the Kconfig description postulate that pr_debug() statements must be
used.
2. Use pr_debug() statements in TPM 1.x driver to print the protocol dump.
3. Require trusted.debug=1 on the kernel command line (default: 0) to
activate dumps at runtime, even when CONFIG_TRUSTED_KEYS_DEBUG=y.
Traces, when actually needed, can be easily enabled by providing
trusted.dyndbg='+p' and trusted.debug=1 in the kernel command-line.
