Hello,

I'm using the kernel 6.1.80-ti-arm64-r50 provided by Debian Bullseye image for
the beaglebone-ai-64 [1] (the same happen with a Yocto/Buildroot based image
with the latest 6.9.x vanilla kernel)

  $ uname -a
  Linux BeagleBone 6.1.80-ti-arm64-r50 #1 bullseye SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Fri May
24 19:44:30 UTC 2024 aarch64 GNU/Linux

But I noticed that the i2c bus is probed after the IMA/EVM infra.
What if a TPM is connected by i2c bus ?

I'm not sure this issue is really specific to the board, there were a similar
issue on rpi board:

  https://github.com/Cybersecurity-LINKS/tpm-ima-patch

After digging into this problem, I did two changes to ima/evm driver to replace
late_initcall() by late_initcall_sync()
(Tested on a vanilla 6.6.33 kernel)


Now, the IMA/EVM stack are initialized *after* the TPM device.

As long as IMA (and EVM) are initialized before accessing files from real root
or loading kernel modules, I don't have a problem with moving it to
late_initcall_sync().

Please post the IMA and EVM patches here on the linux-integrity mailing list.

thanks,

Mimi
