Thiago Jung Bauermann 467d278249 powerpc: ima: get the kexec buffer passed by the previous kernel
Patch series "ima: carry the measurement list across kexec", v8.

The TPM PCRs are only reset on a hard reboot.  In order to validate a
TPM's quote after a soft reboot (eg.  kexec -e), the IMA measurement
list of the running kernel must be saved and then restored on the
subsequent boot, possibly of a different architecture.

The existing securityfs binary_runtime_measurements file conveniently
provides a serialized format of the IMA measurement list.  This patch
set serializes the measurement list in this format and restores it.

Up to now, the binary_runtime_measurements was defined as architecture
native format.  The assumption being that userspace could and would
handle any architecture conversions.  With the ability of carrying the
measurement list across kexec, possibly from one architecture to a
different one, the per boot architecture information is lost and with it
the ability of recalculating the template digest hash.  To resolve this
problem, without breaking the existing ABI, this patch set introduces
the boot command line option "ima_canonical_fmt", which is arbitrarily
defined as little endian.

The need for this boot command line option will be limited to the
existing version 1 format of the binary_runtime_measurements.
Subsequent formats will be defined as canonical format (eg.  TPM 2.0
support for larger digests).

A simplified method of Thiago Bauermann's "kexec buffer handover" patch
series for carrying the IMA measurement list across kexec is included in
this patch set.  The simplified method requires all file measurements be
taken prior to executing the kexec load, as subsequent measurements will
not be carried across the kexec and restored.

This patch (of 10):

The IMA kexec buffer allows the currently running kernel to pass the
measurement list via a kexec segment to the kernel that will be kexec'd.
The second kernel can check whether the previous kernel sent the buffer
and retrieve it.

This is the architecture-specific part which enables IMA to receive the
measurement list passed by the previous kernel.  It will be used in the
next patch.

The change in machine_kexec_64.c is to factor out the logic of removing
an FDT memory reservation so that it can be used by remove_ima_buffer.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
