I implemented it this way so that certs in the dbx would only impact the .platform keyring. I was under the impression we didn’t want to have Secure Boot UEFI db/dbx certs dictate keyring functionality within the kernel itself. Meaning if we have a matching dbx cert in any other keyring (builtin, secondary, ima, etc.), it would be allowed. If that is not how you’d like to see it done, let me know and I’ll make the change. > Also, what should happen if a revocation cert rejected by the blacklist? I’m not sure I understand the question.

The name looks wrong, but I can see the potential issue that kernel > keys can actually be marked revoked as a separate concept. How about > add_key_to_revocation_list() and is_key_on_revocation_list(). I'll update the names in the next version. Thanks.
