Bruno E. O. Meneguele fda784e50a module: export module signature enforcement status
A static variable sig_enforce is used as status var to indicate the real
value of CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORCE, once this one is set the var will hold
true, but if the CONFIG is not set the status var will hold whatever
value is present in the module.sig_enforce kernel cmdline param: true
when =1 and false when =0 or not present.

Considering this cmdline param take place over the CONFIG value when
it's not set, other places in the kernel could misbehave since they
would have only the CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORCE value to rely on. Exporting
this status var allows the kernel to rely in the effective value of
module signature enforcement, being it from CONFIG value or cmdline
param.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
