Subject[PATCH v6 3/8] IMA: define a hook to measure kernel integrity critical data
Date
IMA provides capabilities to measure file data, and in-memory buffer
data. However, currently, IMA does not provide a generic function for
kernel subsystems to measure the integrity critical data. Kernel
integrity critical data can be defined as the in-memory kernel data which
if accidentally or maliciously altered, can compromise the integrity of
the system. Examples of critical data would be kernel in-memory r/o
structures, hash of the memory structures, or data that represents a
linux kernel subsystem state change.

Define a new IMA hook named ima_measure_critical_data to measure kernel
integrity critical data.
