To interpret various DM target measurement data in IMA logs,
a separate documentation page is needed under
Documentation/admin-guide/device-mapper.
Add documentation to help system administrators and attestation
client/server component owners to interpret the measurement
data generated by various DM targets, on various device/table state
changes.

+
+For a given system, various external services/infrastructure tools
+(including the attestation service) interact with it - both during the
+setup and during rest of the system run-time. They share sensitive data
+and/or execute critical workload on that system. The external services
+may want to verify the current run-time state of the relevant kernel
+subsystems before fully trusting the system with business-critical
+data/workload.
+
+Device mapper plays a critical role on a given system by providing
+various important functionalities to the block devices using various
+target types like crypt, verity, integrity etc. Each of these target
+types’ functionalities can be configured with various attributes.
+The attributes chosen to configure these target types can significantly
+impact the security profile of the block device, and in-turn, of the
+system itself. For instance, the type of encryption algorithm and the
+key size determines the strength of encryption for a given block device.
+
+Therefore, verifying the current state of various block devices as well
+as their various target attributes is crucial for external services before
+fully trusting the system with business-critical data/workload.
+
+IMA kernel subsystem provides the necessary functionality for
+device mapper to measure the state and configuration of
+various block devices -
+ - BY device mapper itself, from within the kernel,
+ - in a tamper resistant way,
+ - and re-measured - triggered on state/configuration change.
+
+Setting the IMA Policy:
+=======================
+For IMA to measure the data on a given system, the IMA policy on the
+system needs to be updated to have following line, and the system needs
+to be restarted for the measurements to take effect.
+
+/etc/ima/ima-policy
+ measure func=CRITICAL_DATA label=device-mapper template=ima-buf
+
+The measurements will be reflected in the IMA logs, which are located at:
+
+/sys/kernel/security/integrity/ima/ascii_runtime_measurements
+/sys/kernel/security/integrity/ima/binary_runtime_measurements
+
+Then IMA ASCII measurement log has the following format:
+PCR TEMPLATE_DIGEST TEMPLATE ALG:EVENT_DIGEST EVENT_NAME EVENT_DATA
+
+PCR := Platform Configuration Register, in which the values are registered.
+ This is applicable if TPM chip is in use.
+TEMPLATE_DIGEST := Template digest of the IMA record.
+TEMPLATE := Template that registered the integrity value (e.g. ima-buf).
+ALG:EVENT_DIGEST = Algorithm to compute event digest, followed by digest of event data
+EVENT_NAME := Description of the event (e.g. 'table_load').
+EVENT_DATA := The event data to be measured.
+
+The DM target data measured by IMA subsystem can alternatively
+be queried from userspace by setting DM_IMA_MEASUREMENT_FLAG with
+DM_TABLE_STATUS_CMD.
+
+Supported Device States:
+========================
+Following device state changes will trigger IMA measurements.
+01. Table load
+02. Device resume
+03. Device remove
+04. Table clear
+05. Device rename
+
+01. Table load:
+---------------
+When a new table is loaded in a device's inactive table slot,
+the device information and target specific details from the
+targets in the table are measured.
+
+For instance, if a linear device is created with the following table entries,
+# dmsetup create linear1
+0 2 linear /dev/loop0 512
+2 2 linear /dev/loop0 512
+4 2 linear /dev/loop0 512
+6 2 linear /dev/loop0 512
+
+Then IMA ASCII measurement log will have an entry with:
+EVENT_NAME := table_load
+EVENT_DATA := [device_data];[target_data_row_1];[target_data_row_2];...[target_data_row_n];
+
+E.g.

+
+02. Device resume:
+------------------
+When a suspended device is resumed, the device information and a sha256 hash of the
+data from previous load of an active table are measured.
+
+For instance, if a linear device is resumed with the following command,
+#dmsetup resume linear1
+
+Then IMA ASCII measurement log will have an entry with:
+EVENT_NAME := device_resume
+EVENT_DATA := [device_data];active_table_hash=(sha256hash([device_data];[target_data_row_1];...[target_data_row_n]);

+
+03. Device remove:
+------------------
+When a device is removed, the device information and a sha256 hash of the
+data from an active and inactive table are measured.
+
+For instance, if a linear device is removed with the following command,
+# dmsetup remove linear1
+
+Then IMA ASCII measurement log will have an entry with:
+EVENT_NAME := device_remove
+EVENT_DATA := [device_active_metadata];[device_inactive_metadata];
+ [active_table_hash=(sha256hash([device_active_metadata];[active_table_row_1];...[active_table_row_n]),
+ [inactive_table_hash=(sha256hash([device_inactive_metadata];[inactive_table_row_1];...[inactive_table_row_n]),

+current_device_capacity=8;
+
+
+04. Table clear:
+----------------
+When an inactive table is cleared from the device, the device information and a sha256 hash of the
+data from an inactive table are measured.
+
+For instance, if a linear device's inactive table is cleared with the following command,
+
+# dmsetup clear linear1
+
+Then IMA ASCII measurement log will have an entry with:
+EVENT_NAME := table_clear
+EVENT_DATA := [device_data];inactive_table_hash=(sha256hash([device_data];[inactive_table_row_1];...[inactive_table_row_n]);

+
+
+05. Device rename:
+------------------
+When an device's NAME or UUID is changed, the device information and the new NAME and UUID
+are measured.
+
+For instance, if a linear device's name is changed with the following command,
+
+#dmsetup rename linear1 linear=2
+Then IMA ASCII measurement log will have an entry with:
+EVENT_NAME := device_rename
+EVENT_DATA := [current_device_data];new_name=<new_name_value>;new_uuid=<new_uuid_value>;current_device_capacity=<N>;
