Subject: [PATCH 07/13] ima,evm: use d_real_metadata_inode()
Date: Sun, 15 Nov 2026 15:01:37 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261115-work-ovl-d_real-v1-7-ca155efbcb2e@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261115-work-ovl-d_real-v1-0-ca155efbcb2e@kernel.org>
d_real() is about to be able to fail for D_REAL_DATA. D_REAL_METADATA
never has to look anything up and can't fail. Make that explicit and
switch the open-coded d_inode(d_real(..., D_REAL_METADATA)) in
process_measurement() and evm_calc_hmac_or_hash() over to
d_real_metadata_inode().
No functional changes.
