[PATCH v4 13/17] IMA: Add support for file reads without contents

From: Kees Cook <hidden>
Date: 2020-07-29 17:59:16
Also in: linux-efi, linux-integrity, linux-kselftest, lkml, selinux
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

From: Scott Branden <scott.branden@broadcom.com>

When the kernel_read_file LSM hook is called with contents=false, IMA
can appraise the file directly, without requiring a filled buffer. When
such a buffer is available, though, IMA can continue to use it instead
of forcing a double read here.
