CONFIG_ASYMMETRIC_KEY_TYPE: Asymmetric (public-key cryptographic) key type

General informations

The Linux kernel configuration item CONFIG_ASYMMETRIC_KEY_TYPE has multiple definitions:

Asymmetric (public-key cryptographic) key type found in crypto/asymmetric_keys/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_ASYMMETRIC_KEY_TYPE:

• prompt: Asymmetric (public-key cryptographic) key type
• type: bool
• depends on: CONFIG_KEYS
• defined in crypto/asymmetric_keys/Kconfig
• found in Linux kernels: 4.7–4.20, 5.0–5.19, 6.0–6.12
• modules built: asymmetric_keys

Help text

This option provides support for a key type that holds the data for the asymmetric keys used for public key cryptographic operations such as encryption, decryption, signature generation and signature verification.
