module verification failed: signature and/or required key missing - tainting kernel about ch341ser

[hesaputra]

Did you sign the compiled ch34x.ko?

openssl req -new -x509 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout MOK.priv -outform DER -out MOK.der -nodes -days 36500 -subj "/CN=Descriptive name/"

sudo /usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r)/scripts/sign-file sha256 ./MOK.priv ./MOK.der ch34x.ko

sudo mokutil --import MOK.der

Enter your password, reboot, then load the key

Even if you have the same warnings, check the work of module and tell me about results

Hello, I have the same problem here on Ubuntu 18.04. The module is successfully loaded:

However, it fails to convert my USB device to ttyUSB:

Is there any solutions? Thanks!

Thanks for your suggestion! Now the warning disappears but still no conversion is made:

Looks like the conversion problem is not related with the verification. Are there any other possible causes for the problem? The ch340 driver works for my device on Windows.

What device are you trying to connect to? the idVendor and idProduct from your screenshot don't seems to match with ch341x signature. Perhaps your device need another driver, not this one.
From the source code:
#define CH34x_VENDOR_ID 0x1A86

#define CH340_PRODUCT_ID 0x7523

#define CH341_PRODUCT_ID 0x5523

Thanks for your suggestion. Seems that I should look for other drivers.
