Right, I chose SHA-512 because everyone knows it's 512 times more secure
than SHA-1.

I cherry-picked those two patches, and now I see:

[ 2.808075] Loading module verification certificates
[ 2.809331] X.509: Cert 6e03943da0f3b015ba6ed7f5e0cac4fe48680994 has expired
[ 2.810500] MODSIGN: Problem loading in-kernel X.509 certificate (-127)

I noticed the Cert number didn't change with rebuilds: "distclean"
didn't remove some files:

$ git clean -f -f -x -d
Removing extra_certificates
Removing signing_key.priv
Removing signing_key.x509
Removing signing_key.x509.keyid
Removing signing_key.x509.signer
Removing x509.genkey

Removing them didn't fix it either, but at least I got a new certificate.

This is x86-32 BTW. I've put the complete, built tree (minus .git dir)
up at http://ozlabs.org/~rusty/linux-for-dhowells.tar.xz

Here's how I run it:
kvm -nographic -m 256 -net user,restrict=off -net nic,model=virtio -drive file=$QEMUIMAGE,index=0,media=disk,if=virtio -drive file=$QEMUIMAGEB,index=1,media=disk,if=virtio -kernel arch/x86/boot/bzImage -append "ro root=/dev/vda1 console=ttyS0 $*"

Thanks,
Rusty.
