From 2e72d51b4ac32989496870cd8171b3682fea1839 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kees Cook Date: Tue, 16 Oct 2012 07:32:07 +1030 Subject: security: introduce kernel_module_from_file hook Now that kernel module origins can be reasoned about, provide a hook to the LSMs to make policy decisions about the module file. This will let Chrome OS enforce that loadable kernel modules can only come from its read-only hash-verified root filesystem. Other LSMs can, for example, read extended attributes for signatures, etc. Signed-off-by: Kees Cook Acked-by: Serge E.
