## Key management configuration# config KEYS	bool "Enable access key retention support"	help	  This option provides support for retaining authentication tokens and	  access keys in the kernel. 	  It also includes provision of methods by which such keys might be	  associated with a process so that network filesystems, encryption	  support and the like can find them. 	  Furthermore, a special type of key is available that acts as keyring:	  a searchable sequence of keys. Each process is equipped with access	  to five standard keyrings: UID-specific, GID-specific, session,	  process and thread. 	  If you are unsure as to whether this is required, answer N. config TRUSTED_KEYS	tristate "TRUSTED KEYS"	depends on KEYS && TCG_TPM	select CRYPTO	select CRYPTO_HMAC	select CRYPTO_SHA1	help	  This option provides support for creating, sealing, and unsealing	  keys in the kernel. Trusted keys are random number symmetric keys,	  generated and RSA-sealed by the TPM. The TPM only unseals the keys,	  if the boot PCRs and other criteria match.  Userspace will only ever	  see encrypted blobs. 	  If you are unsure as to whether this is required, answer N. config ENCRYPTED_KEYS	tristate "ENCRYPTED KEYS"	depends on KEYS	select CRYPTO	select CRYPTO_HMAC	select CRYPTO_AES	select CRYPTO_CBC	select CRYPTO_SHA256	select CRYPTO_RNG	help	  This option provides support for create/encrypting/decrypting keys	  in the kernel.  Encrypted keys are kernel generated random numbers,	  which are encrypted/decrypted with a 'master' symmetric key. The	  'master' key can be either a trusted-key or user-key type.	  Userspace only ever sees/stores encrypted blobs. 	  If you are unsure as to whether this is required, answer N. config KEYS_DEBUG_PROC_KEYS	bool "Enable the /proc/keys file by which keys may be viewed"	depends on KEYS	help	  This option turns on support for the /proc/keys file - through which	  can be listed all the keys on the system that are viewable by the	  reading process. 	  The only keys included in the list are those that grant View	  permission to the reading process whether or not it possesses them.	  Note that LSM security checks are still performed, and may further	  filter out keys that the current process is not authorised to view. 	  Only key attributes are listed here; key payloads are not included in	  the resulting table. 	  If you are unsure as to whether this is required, answer N.
