In a nutshell, we designed a kernel-based tamper-evident logging system and implemented a proof of concept of it on top of Linux Audit. Would you be interested in the possibility of incorporating our system in the upstream version of Linux Audit? We envision a small extension to Linux Audit that would allow users to enable integrity protection for the logs if desired. For reference, this is our paper and this is our proof-of-concept implementation.

Hi Riccardo,

Often it helps to discuss new features in the context of a patch
submission; it helps remove ambiguity and is an easy way to offer
feedback.  It would appear that you already have patches so I would
suggest you prepare those for posting on-list, complete with an
in-depth commit description, so we can discuss further.

If you are unfamiliar with submitting Linux kernel patches, the link
below may be helpful:
