perhaps instead add #define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ": " fmt
so all the pr_<level> logging is more specific.

This would prefix all pr_<level> output with "integrity: "

Joe! Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

Agreed. Joe, could you post a patch with a proper patch description
for this?


I have been looking into this a bit more and there is an opportunity
here to add #define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ": " fmt to integrity.h
and get rid of duplicate defines.

That might work but:

$ git grep --name-only 'integrity\.h' security | xargs grep pr_fmt
security/integrity/digsig.c:#define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ": " fmt
security/integrity/digsig_asymmetric.c:#define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ": " fmt
security/integrity/evm/evm_main.c:#define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ": " fmt
security/security.c:#define pr_fmt(fmt) "LSM: " fmt

Here security.c already uses "LSM: "

Does anyone care about the LSM: prefix?



What I have in mind is replace the ones under security/integrity/
adding the define to integrity.h is under security/integrity.

I would leave the security/security.c:#define pr_fmt(fmt) "LSM: " fmt
alone and just replace the ones under security/integrity/ in which case
KBUILD_MODNAME will show integrity as the module.

thanks,
