From: Stefan Berger Date: Thu, 13 Oct 2016 20:49:43 +0000 (-0400) Subject: 98integrity: support validating the IMA policy file signature X-Git-Tag: 045~102^2 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=refs%2Fpull%2F158%2Fhead;p=thirdparty%2Fdracut.git 98integrity: support validating the IMA policy file signature IMA validates file signatures based on the security.ima xattr. As of Linux-4.7, instead of cat'ing the IMA policy into the securityfs policy, the IMA policy pathname can be written, allowing the IMA policy file signature to be validated. This patch first attempts to write the pathname, but on failure falls back to cat'ing the IMA policy contents .
