[PATCH v9 21/23] ima: Introduce securityfs file to activate an IMA namespace

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Stefan Berger <stefanb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Introduce securityfs file 'active' that allows a user to activate an IMA
namespace by writing a "1" (precisely a '1\0' or '1\n') to it. When
reading from the file, it shows either '0' or '1'.

Also, introduce ns_is_active() to be used in those places where the
ima_namespace pointer may either be NULL or where the active field may not
have been set to '1', yet. An inactive IMA namespace should never be
accessed since it has not been initialized, yet.

Set the init_ima_ns's active field to '1' since it is considered active
right from the beginning.

The rationale for introducing a file to activate an IMA namespace is that
subsequent support for IMA-measurement and IMA-appraisal will add
configuration files for selecting for example the template that an IMA
namespace is supposed to use for logging measurements, which will add
an IMA namespace configuration stage (using securityfs files) before its
activation.
