Subject: [PATCH v2] IMA: support for duplicate data measurement
Date:   Tue, 16 Feb 2021 18:46:49 -0800
Message-Id: <20210217024649.23405-1-tusharsu@linux.microsoft.com>
Precedence: bulk

IMA does not measure duplicate data since TPM extend is a very expensive
operation.  However, in some cases, the measurement of duplicate data
is necessary to accurately determine the current state of the system.
Eg, SELinux state changing from 'audit', to 'enforcing', and back to
'audit' again.  In this example, currently, IMA will not measure the
last state change to 'audit'.  This limits the ability of attestation
services to accurately determine the current state of the measurements 
on the system.

Update ima_add_template_entry() to support measurement of duplicate
data, driven by a Kconfig option - IMA_DISABLE_HTABLE.

Change Log v2:
 - Incorporated feedback from Mimi on v1.
 - The fix is not just applicable to measurement of critical data,
   it now applies to other buffers and file data as well.
 - the fix is driven by a Kconfig option IMA_DISABLE_HTABLE, rather
   than a IMA policy condition - allow_dup.
