[PATCH v5 06/10] IMA: Defined an IMA hook to measure keys on key create or update

From: Lakshmi Ramasubramanian
Date: Mon Nov 11 2019 - 14:33:43 EST


Asymmetric keys used for verifying file signatures or certificates
are currently not included in the IMA measurement list.

This patch defines a new IMA hook namely ima_post_key_create_or_update()
to measure asymmetric keys.

The IMA hook is defined in a new file namely ima_asymmetric_keys.c

Note that currently IMA subsystem can be enabled without
enabling KEYS subsystem.

Adding support for measuring asymmetric keys in IMA requires KEYS
subsystem to be enabled. To handle this dependency a new config
namely CONFIG_IMA_MEASURE_ASYMMETRIC_KEYS has been added. Enabling
this config requires the following configs to be enabled:
CONFIG_IMA, CONFIG_KEYS, CONFIG_ASYMMETRIC_KEY_TYPE, and
CONFIG_ASYMMETRIC_PUBLIC_KEY_SUBTYPE.

The new file ima_asymmetric_keys.c is built only if
CONFIG_IMA_MEASURE_ASYMMETRIC_KEYS is enabled.

This config is turned off by default.
