[PATCH v4 5/6] IMA: add hook to measure critical data from kernel components

Wed Sep 23 19:20:10 UTC 2020


Currently, IMA does not provide a generic function for kernel components
to measure their data. A generic function provided by IMA would
enable various parts of the kernel with easier and faster on-boarding to
use IMA infrastructure, would avoid code duplication, and consistent
usage of IMA policy option "data_sources:=" across the kernel.

Add a new IMA func CRITICAL_DATA and a corresponding IMA hook
ima_measure_critical_data() to support measuring various critical kernel
components. Limit the measurement to the components that are specified
in the IMA policy - CRITICAL_DATA+data_sources.
