Yes - at policy load we can map a keyring name to a keyring number.

But at runtime we still need to know if the keyring parameter passed to the IMA hook function is configured to be measured.

void ima_post_key_create_or_update(struct key *keyring, struct key *key,
unsigned long flags, bool create);
{
=> Get the keyring number for the given "keyring".
=> Check if the keyring number is in the configured IMA policy.
=> If yes, measure the key.
=> Else, do nothing.
}

Did I misunderstand what you had stated?

The .builtin_trusted_keys is the name of a keyring, not of an IMA
hook. ÂDefine a new IMA policy "keyring=" option, where keyring is
optional. ÂSome IMA policy rules might look like:

# measure all keys
measure func=KEYRING_CHECK

# measure keys on the IMA keyring
measure func=KEYRING_CHECK keyring=".ima"

# measure keys on the BUILTIN and IMA keyrings into a different PCR
measure func=KEYRING_CHECK keyring=".builtin_trusted_keys|.ima" pcr=11

I agree - I'll take a look at this.

"func", in this case, should be something like "KEYRING_CHECK". ÂNo
mapping is necessary.
Agree.


if (!ima_initialized) {
- ima_queue_key_for_measurement(key, NONE);
+ ima_queue_key_for_measurement(key, func);
return;
}
pk = key->payload.data[asym_crypto];
process_buffer_measurement(pk->key, pk->keylen,
key->description,
- NONE, 0);
+ func, 0);

Pass the "keyring" to process_buffer_measurement() and on to
ima_get_action(), so that ima_get_action() determines whether the
keyring is in policy.

Agree.
