[PATCH 3/7] ima: Introduce exec_tcb and tmpfs policies

[Roberto Sassu <roberto.sassu@huawei.com>]

This patch introduces two new hard-coded policies, named exec_tcb and
tmpfs. The first excludes the FILE_CHECK rules to measure only files
executed and mmapped. The second excludes the dont_measure rule for the
tmpfs filesystem for the ima_tcb, tcb and exec_tcb policies, as this could
be used as a way for an attacker to hide his actions. The new policies can
be selected by specifying them as a value of ima_policy= in the kernel
command line.

The benefit of using the exec_tcb policy, as opposed to the tcb policy, is
that most likely the measurement list will contain only immutable files,
recognizable from a set of reference values from software vendors. However,
this policy provides a less accurate view of the integrity of the system,
as opened files are excluded from measurement.

+			The "exec_tcb" policy is similar to the "tcb" policy
+			except for opened files, which are not measured.
+
+			The "tmpfs" policy excludes the dont_measure rule for

 			The "appraise_tcb" policy appraises the integrity of
