As part of the config gui we want to be able to have the system define
new config options without them being lost if the user makes their own
changes in CBFS. To allow that this change creates a function initiated
in init that combines all /etc/config* files into /tmp/config. All
existing scripts have been changed to source /tmp/config instead of
/etc/config. The config-gui.sh script now uses /etc/config.user to hold
user configuration options but the combine_configs function will allow
that to expand as others want to split configuration out further.
As it stands here are the current config files:
/etc/config -- Compiled-in configuration options
/etc/config.user -- User preferences that override /etc/config
/tmp/config -- Running config referenced by the BIOS, combination
of existing configs
USB smart card readers are most full speed devices, and there is no
"rate-matching hubs" beneath the root hub on older (e.g. GM45) plat-
forms, which has companion OHCI or UHCI controllers and needs cor-
responding drivers to communicate with card readers directly plugged
into the motherboard, otherwise a discrete USB hub should be inserted
between the motherboard and the reader.
This time I make inserting linux modules for OHCI and UHCI controllable
with option CONFIG_LINUX_USB_COMPANION_CONTROLLER.
A linux config for x200 is added as an example.
Tested on my x200s and elitebook revolve 810g1.
Changed the checking of required hashes or required rollback state
to be right before boot, allowing the user to sign/set defaults
in interactive mode.
Also cleaned up usages of recovery and fixed iso parameter
regression.
Similar to qubes-update, it will save then verify the hashes of
the kexec files. Once TOTP is verified, a normal boot will verify
that the file hashes and all the kexec params match and if
successful, boot directly to OS.
Also added a config option to require hash verification for
non-recovery boots, failing to recovery not met.
Refactored boot parsing code and applied that in local-init to
scan /boot for grub options and allow the user to unsafely boot
anything. This goes a long way to addressing #196.
Optionally the user can customize those boot parameters or enforce
arbitrary hashes on the boot device by creating and signing config
files in /boot/ or /media/ or /media/kexec_iso/ISO_FILENAME/.
