The builtin policy rules are loaded at __init. Subsequently a custom policy can replace the builtin policy rules by writing to the securityfs file.

This sounds right, other than "type=INTEGRITY_RULE" (1805) for ima_audit_measurement(). Could we rename type=1805 to be INTEGRITY_AUDIT or INTEGRITY_IMA_AUDIT? The new type=1806 audit message could be named INTEGRITY_RULE or, if that would be confusing, INTEGRITY_POLICY_RULE. > 1806 would be in sync with INTEGRITY_RULE now for process related info. > If this looks good, I'll remove the dependency on your local context > creation and post the series. > > The justification for the change is that the INTEGRITY_RULE, as produced > by ima_parse_rule(), is broken. Post which series? The IMA namespacing patch set? This change should be upstreamed independently of IMA namespacing. Mimi
