configfs-tsm-report: Increase TSM_REPORT_OUTBLOB_MAX to 16MB
Confidential Computing (CoCo) attestation is evolving toward
standardized models such as DICE (Device Identifier Composition Engine)
and Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), which rely on layered certificate
chains and larger cryptographic signatures.
A typical PQC certificate can range from 5KB to 15KB, and DICE-based
architectures accumulate these certificates across multiple boot
stages. In such configurations, the total attestation evidence can
reach several megabytes, exceeding the current 32KB limit.
Increase TSM_REPORT_OUTBLOB_MAX to 16MB to accommodate these larger
certificate chains. This provides sufficient headroom to handle
evolving requirements without requiring frequent updates to the limit.
TSM_REPORT_OUTBLOB_MAX is used by the configfs read interface to cap
the maximum allowed binary blob size for outblob, auxblob and
manifestblob attributes. Hence, the per-open-file worst case memory
allocation increases from 32KB to 16MB. Multiple concurrent readers
multiply this cost (e.g., N readers of an M-byte blob incur NxM bytes
of vmalloc-backed memory). However, allocations are performed on demand
and remain proportional to the actual blob length, not the configured
maximum.
