# SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 config FS_VERITY bool "FS Verity (read-only file-based authenticity protection)" select CRYPTO # SHA-256 is selected as it's intended to be the default hash algorithm. # To avoid bloat, other wanted algorithms must be selected explicitly. select CRYPTO_SHA256 help This option enables fs-verity. fs-verity is the dm-verity mechanism implemented at the file level. On supported filesystems (currently EXT4 and F2FS), userspace can use an ioctl to enable verity for a file, which causes the filesystem to build a Merkle tree for the file. The filesystem will then transparently verify any data read from the file against the Merkle tree. The file is also made read-only. This serves as an integrity check, but the availability of the Merkle tree root hash also allows efficiently supporting various use cases where normally the whole file would need to be hashed at once, such as: (a) auditing (logging the file's hash), or (b) authenticity verification (comparing the hash against a known good value, e.g. from a digital signature). fs-verity is especially useful on large files where not all the contents may actually be needed. Also, fs-verity verifies data each time it is paged back in, which provides better protection against malicious disks vs. an ahead-of-time hash. If unsure, say N. config FS_VERITY_DEBUG bool "FS Verity debugging" depends on FS_VERITY help Enable debugging messages related to fs-verity by default. Say N unless you are an fs-verity developer. config FS_VERITY_BUILTIN_SIGNATURES bool "FS Verity builtin signature support" depends on FS_VERITY select SYSTEM_DATA_VERIFICATION help Support verifying signatures of verity files against the X.509 certificates that have been loaded into the ".fs-verity" kernel keyring. This is meant as a relatively simple mechanism that can be used to provide an authenticity guarantee for verity files, as an alternative to IMA appraisal. Userspace programs still need to check that the verity bit is set in order to get an authenticity guarantee. If unsure, say N.
