[PATCH v12 04/26] ima: Move arch_policy_entry into ima_namespace

Stefan Berger stefanb at linux.ibm.com
Wed Apr 20 14:06:11 UTC 2022


The architecture-specific policy rules, currently defined for EFI and
powerpc, require the kexec kernel image and kernel modules to be
validly signed and measured, based on the system's secure boot and/or
trusted boot mode and the IMA_ARCH_POLICY Kconfig option being enabled.

To avoid special-casing init_ima_ns as much as possible, move the
arch_policy_entry into the ima_namespace.

When freeing the arch_policy_entry set the pointer to NULL.
