fab634c4de fs-verity: don't pass whole descriptor to fsverity_verify_signature()
Now that fsverity_get_descriptor() validates the sig_size field,
fsverity_verify_signature() doesn't need to do it.

Just change the prototype of fsverity_verify_signature() to take the
signature directly rather than take a fsverity_descriptor.

ed45e20164 fs-verity: rename "file measurement" to "file digest"
I originally chose the name "file measurement" to refer to the fs-verity
file digest to avoid confusion with traditional full-file digests or
with the bare root hash of the Merkle tree.

But the name "file measurement" hasn't caught on, and usually people are
calling it something else, usually the "file digest".  E.g. see
"struct fsverity_digest" and "struct fsverity_formatted_digest", the
libfsverity_compute_digest() and libfsverity_sign_digest() functions in
libfsverity, and the "fsverity digest" command.

Having multiple names for the same thing is always confusing.

So to hopefully avoid confusion in the future, rename
"fs-verity file measurement" to "fs-verity file digest".

This leaves FS_IOC_MEASURE_VERITY as the only reference to "measure" in
the kernel, which makes some amount of sense since the ioctl is actively
"measuring" the file.

I'll be renaming this in fsverity-utils too (though similarly the
'fsverity measure' command, which is a wrapper for
FS_IOC_MEASURE_VERITY, will stay).

9e90f30e78 fs-verity: rename fsverity_signed_digest to fsverity_formatted_digest
The name "struct fsverity_signed_digest" is causing confusion because it
isn't actually a signed digest, but rather it's the way that the digest
is formatted in order to be signed.  Rename it to
"struct fsverity_formatted_digest" to prevent this confusion.

Also update the struct's comment to clarify that it's specific to the
built-in signature verification support and isn't a requirement for all
fs-verity users.

I'll be renaming this struct in fsverity-utils too.

7bf765dd84 fs-verity: remove filenames from file comments
Embedding the file path inside kernel source code files isn't
particularly useful as often files are moved around and the paths become
incorrect.  checkpatch.pl warns about this since v5.10-rc1.

6377a38bd3 fs-verity: fix all kerneldoc warnings
Fix all kerneldoc warnings in fs/verity/ and include/linux/fsverity.h.
Most of these were due to missing documentation for function parameters.

Detected with:

    scripts/kernel-doc -v -none fs/verity/*.{c,h} include/linux/fsverity.h

This cleanup makes it possible to check new patches for kerneldoc
warnings without having to filter out all the existing ones.

432434c9f8 fs-verity: support builtin file signatures
To meet some users' needs, add optional support for having fs-verity
handle a portion of the authentication policy in the kernel.  An
".fs-verity" keyring is created to which X.509 certificates can be
added; then a sysctl 'fs.verity.require_signatures' can be set to cause
the kernel to enforce that all fs-verity files contain a signature of
their file measurement by a key in this keyring.

See the "Built-in signature verification" section of
Documentation/filesystems/fsverity.rst for the full documentation.
