[PATCH v3 04/12] ima: Fail rule parsing when buffer hook functions have an invalid action

[Tyler Hicks]

Buffer based hook functions, such as KEXEC_CMDLINE and KEY_CHECK, can
only measure. The process_buffer_measurement() function quietly ignores
all actions except measure so make this behavior clear at the time of
policy load.

The parsing of the keyrings conditional had a check to ensure that it
was only specified with measure actions but the check should be on the
hook function and not the keyrings conditional since
"appraise func=KEY_CHECK" is not a valid rule.

Fixes: b0935123a183 ("IMA: Define a new hook to measure the kexec boot command line arguments")
Fixes: 5808611cccb2 ("IMA: Add KEY_CHECK func to measure keys")

* v3
  - Add comments to ima_validate_rule() to separate/explain the types of
    validation checks (section for action checks, section for hook
    function checks, soon to be a section for combination of options
    checks, etc.)
  - Removed the "if (entry->flags & IMA_FUNC)" conditional around the
    switch statement in ima_validate_rule() which reduced the overall indention
    by a tab. This could be removed because entry->func is NONE when the
    IMA_FUNC flag is not set. We'll explicitly enforce and then leverage
    that property in a later patch when we start validating all hook
    functions in ima_validate_rule().
  - Add comment explicitly stating that all hook functions except
    KEXEC_CMDLINE and KEY_CHECK are still being validated in
    ima_parse_rule().
* v2
  - No change
