Subject: [PATCH v6 7/8] IMA: add a built-in policy rule for critical data measurement
Date: Thu, 19 Nov 2020 15:26:10 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201119232611.30114-8-tusharsu@linux.microsoft.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201119232611.30114-1-tusharsu@linux.microsoft.com>

From: Lakshmi Ramasubramanian <nramas@linux.microsoft.com>

The IMA hook to measure kernel critical data, namely
ima_measure_critical_data(), could be called before a custom IMA policy
is loaded. Define a new critical data builtin policy to allow measuring
early kernel integrity critical data before a custom IMA policy is
loaded.

Add critical data to built-in IMA rules if the kernel command line
contains "ima_policy=critical_data".
