The "ima: add support for arch specific policies" patch set introduced architecture specific policies, including an x86 policy which prevents loading a kernel image via the kexec_load syscall. This patch set preq's that patch set, adding a missing kexec_load syscall failure message, extending the existing support for detecting secureboot mode, and defining a kexec_load syscall selftest to simplify testing. To run the kexec_load test requires root privileges. Execute: "sudo make TARGETS=ima kselftest". With secure boot enabled, the kexec_load fails, but the test succeeds. selftests: ima: test_kexec_load.sh ======================================== ./test_kexec_load.sh: kexec_load failed [PASS] ok 1..1 selftests: ima: test_kexec_load.sh [PASS] Mimi Mimi Zohar (3): ima: add error mesage to kexec_load selftests/ima: kexec_load syscall test x86/ima: retry detecting secure boot mode arch/x86/kernel/Makefile | 2 + arch/x86/kernel/ima_arch.c | 46 +++++++++++++++++++++- include/linux/ima.h | 2 +- security/integrity/ima/ima_main.c | 4 +- tools/testing/selftests/Makefile | 1 + tools/testing/selftests/ima/Makefile | 11 ++++++ tools/testing/selftests/ima/config | 4 ++ tools/testing/selftests/ima/test_kexec_load.sh | 54 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 8 files changed, 120 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) create mode 100644 tools/testing/selftests/ima/Makefile create mode 100644 tools/testing/selftests/ima/config create mode 100755 tools/testing/selftests/ima/test_kexec_load.sh -- 2.7.5 _______________________________________________ kexec mailing list kexec@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/kexec
