      integrity: IMA as an integrity service provider · 3323eec9
      Mimi Zohar 提交于
      IMA provides hardware (TPM) based measurement and attestation for
      file measurements. As the Trusted Computing (TPM) model requires,
      IMA measures all files before they are accessed in any way (on the
      integrity_bprm_check, integrity_path_check and integrity_file_mmap
      hooks), and commits the measurements to the TPM. Once added to the
      TPM, measurements can not be removed.
      
      In addition, IMA maintains a list of these file measurements, which
      can be used to validate the aggregate value stored in the TPM.  The
      TPM can sign these measurements, and thus the system can prove, to
      itself and to a third party, the system's integrity in a way that
      cannot be circumvented by malicious or compromised software.
      
      - alloc ima_template_entry before calling ima_store_template()
      - log ima_add_boot_aggregate() failure
      - removed unused IMA_TEMPLATE_NAME_LEN
      - replaced hard coded string length with #define name
