Subject: [PATCH v3 5/5] ima_violations.sh: require kernel v6.14 for minimizing violations tests
Date: Wed, 5 Mar 2025 09:54:21 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250305145421.638857-5-zohar@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250305145421.638857-1-zohar@linux.ibm.com>
Depending on the IMA policy and the number of violations, the kernel
patches for minimizing the number of open-writers and ToMToU (Time of
Measure Time of Use) violations may be a major performance improvement.
Most likely the kernel patches will be back ported, but for now limit
the new tests to new kernels with the applied patches. Bail after the
first new test.
