They shouldn't be hidden here in the move of copying the measurement list from kexec load to execute. If "ima_update_kexec_buffer()" was initially defined as a stub function, the infrastructure could be set up ahead of time. This patch could then be limited to just moving the copy from kexec "load" to "execute", by replacing the stub function with the real function. > Modify kexec_file_load() syscall to call kimage_file_post_load() after the > image has been loaded and prepared for kexec.
