Series ima: Add template fields to verify EVM portable signatures | expand

Commit Message

Roberto Sassu May 28, 2021, 7:38 a.m. UTC
With the recent introduction of the evmsig template field, remote verifiers
can obtain the EVM portable signature instead of the IMA signature, to
verify file metadata.

After introducing the new fields to include file metadata in the
measurement list, this patch finally defines the evm-sig template, whose
format is:

d-ng|n-ng|evmsig|xattrnames|xattrlengths|xattrvalues|iuid|igid|imode

xattrnames, xattrlengths and xattrvalues are populated only from defined
EVM protected xattrs, i.e. the ones that EVM considers to verify the
portable signature. xattrnames and xattrlengths are populated only if the
xattr is present.

xattrnames and xattrlengths are not necessary for verifying the EVM
portable signature, but they are included for completeness of information,
if a remote verifier wants to infer more from file metadata.

checkpatch is complaining "WARNING: quoted string split across lines".

The MAX_TEMPLATE_NAME_LEN needs to be updated.
