Address and size of the buffer containing the IMA measurement log need
to be passed from the current kernel to the next kernel on kexec.

Add address and size fields to "struct kimage_arch" for ARM64 platform
to hold the address and size of the IMA measurement log buffer.

Update CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE to select CONFIG_HAVE_IMA_KEXEC, if CONFIG_IMA
is enabled, to indicate that the IMA measurement log information is
present in the device tree for ARM64.

Why do these need to be in the arch structure instead of 'struct kimage'?


Currently, only powerpc and, with this patch set, arm64 have support for
carrying forward IMA measurement list across kexec system call. The above
fields are used for tracking IMA measurement list.

Do you see a reason to move these fields to "struct kimage"?

If they're gated on CONFIG_IMA_KEXEC, then it seems harmless for them to
be added to the shared structure. Or are you saying that there are
architectures which have CONFIG_IMA_KEXEC but do not want these fields?


As far as I know, there are no other architectures that define
CONFIG_IMA_KEXEC, but do not use these fields.

Yes, CONFIG_IMA_KEXEC enables "carrying the IMA measurement list across
a soft boot".   The only arch that currently carries the IMA
measurement across kexec is powerpc.

Ok, in which case this sounds like it should be in the shared structure, no?


Ok - I'll move the IMA kexec buffer fields from "struct kimage_arch" to "struct kimage" for both powerpc and arm64.
