[PATCH 3/5] ima: Fix ima digest hash table key calculation

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

 



From: Krzysztof Struczynski <krzysztof.struczynski@xxxxxxxxxx>

Function hash_long() accepts unsigned long, while currently only one byte
is passed from ima_hash_key(), which calculates a key for ima_htable. Use
more bytes to avoid frequent collisions.

Length of the buffer is not explicitly passed as a function parameter,
because this function expects a digest whose length is greater than the
size of unsigned long.
