Subject: [RFC][PATCH 7/9] evm: make rootfs a special case
Date: Wed, 7 Jan 2015 15:52:58 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1420663980-20842-8-git-send-email-zohar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1420663980-20842-1-git-send-email-zohar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Both the EVM HMAC and signature xattr formats are file system
specific and can not be copied from one filesystem to another.
EVM differentiates files without any xattrs (INTEGRITY_UNKNOWN)
from those having protected xattrs (INTEGRITY_NOLABEL). This
patch treats the rootfs filesystem as a special case, returning
INTEGRITY_UNKNOWN.
