[PATCH 1/4] ima: add support for arch specific policies

From: Eric Richter
Date: Wed Jul 25 2018 - 19:32:16 EST


From: Nayna Jain <nayna@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Builtin IMA policies can be enabled on the boot command line, and
replaced with a custom policy, normally during early boot in the
initramfs. Build time IMA policy rules were recently added. These
rules are automatically enabled on boot and persist after loading a
custom policy.

There is a need for yet another type of policy, an architecture specific
policy, which is derived at runtime during kernel boot, based on the
runtime secure boot flags. Like the build time policy rules, these
rules persist after loading a custom policy.

This patch adds support for loading an architecture specific IMA
policy.

- Defined function to convert the arch policy strings to an array of
ima_entry_rules. The memory can then be freed after loading a custom
policy.
- Rename ima_get_arch_policy to arch_get_ima_policy.
