Subject: [ima-evm-utils: PATCH 1/8] Implement imaevm_create_sigv3 for creating V3 signatures
Date: Tue, 24 Mar 2026 18:03:07 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260324220314.743709-2-stefanb@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260324220314.743709-1-stefanb@linux.ibm.com>
Implement imaevm_create_sigv3 that creates v3 signatures. This function
will now also allocate a buffer if the caller did not provide one.
Further, it will write the full signature into the signature buffer,
including the leading xattr type byte.
