This patch set addresses a couple of problems with writing security.ima xattrs from tar. The first patch prevents file signatures stored in the security.ima xattr from being replaced when the timestamp is updated. The second patch identifies empty files created using mknodat as new, so that the file can subsequently be opened in order to write the file contents.
