[PATCH v1 6/6] KEYS: measure keys when they are created or updated

From: Lakshmi Ramasubramanian
Date: Tue Oct 22 2019 - 20:18:39 EST


A new LSM function namely, security_key_create_or_update, has
been added. This function is called by key_create_or_update
function when a new key is created or an existing key is updated.
This call is made when the key has been instantiated and linked
to the target keyring.

security_key_create_or_update is passed the target keyring, key,
key creation flags, and a boolean flag indicating whether
the key was newly created or an existing key was updated.
This function calls the ima function ima_post_key_create_or_update
to measure the key.
