[PATCH v3] ima: drop vla in ima_audit_measurement()

From: Tycho Andersen <hidden>
Date: 2018-03-08 23:08:36
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: extended verification module (evm), integrity measurement architecture (ima), security subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Mimi Zohar, Roberto Sassu, Dmitry Kasatkin, Paul Moore, James Morris, "Serge E. Hallyn", Linus Torvalds

In keeping with the directive to get rid of VLAs [1], let's drop the VLA
from ima_audit_measurement(). We need to adjust the return type of
ima_audit_measurement, because now this function can fail if an allocation
fails.

[1]: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/3/7/621

v2: just use audit_log_format instead of doing a second allocation
v3: ignore failures in ima_audit_measurement()
