Linux uses either PKCS #7 or CMS for signing modules (see
scripts/sign-file.c). CMS is not supported by LibreSSL or older OpenSSL,
so PKCS #7 is used on systems with these libcrypto providers.
CMS and PKCS #7 formats are very similar. CMS is newer but is as much as
possible backward compatible with PKCS #7 [1]. PKCS #7 is supported in
the latest OpenSSL as well as CMS. The fields used for signing kernel
modules are supported both in PKCS #7 and CMS.
For now modinfo uses CMS with no alternative requiring OpenSSL 1.1.0 or
newer.
Use PKCS #7 for parsing module signature information, so that modinfo
could be used both with OpenSSL and LibreSSL.
