Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.

__ima_inode_hash() checks if a digest has been already calculated by looking for the integrity_iint_cache structure associated to the passed inode. Users of ima_file_hash() (e.g. eBPF) might be interested in obtaining the information without having to setup an IMA policy so that the digest is always available at the time they call this function. In addition, they likely expect the digest to be fresh, e.g. recalculated by IMA after a file write. Although getting the digest from the bprm_committed_creds hook (as in the eBPF test) ensures that the digest is fresh, as the IMA hook is executed before that hook, this is not always the case (e.g. for the mmap_file hook). Call ima_collect_measurement() in __ima_inode_hash(), if the file descriptor is available (passed by ima_file_hash()) and the digest is not available/not fresh, and store the file measurement in a temporary integrity_iint_cache structure. This change does not cause memory usage increase, due to using the temporary integrity_iint_cache structure, and due to freeing the ima_digest_data structure inside integrity_iint_cache before exiting from __ima_inode_hash(). For compatibility reasons, the behavior of ima_inode_hash() remains unchanged. Signed-off-by:Roberto Sassu <roberto.sassu@huawei.com> Signed-off-by:
