This specifically occurs when the flask policy is enabled but either the du= mmy or the SILO policy is selected as the enforcing policy. This is not ideal f= or configurations like hyperlaunch and dom0less when there could be a number of modules to be walked or doing an unnecessary device tree lookup. This patch introduces the policy_file_required flag for tracking when an XSM policy module requires a policy file. Only when the policy_file_required fl= ag is set to true, will XSM search the boot modules for a policy file. Signed-off-by: Daniel P.
