[PATCH 1 of 4] ima: related TPM device driver interal kernel interface

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The IBM Integrity Measurement Architecture (IMA) is being submitted for 
inclusion by Reiner Sailer.  The IMA is a LSM that uses TPM 
functionality.  This patch provides and internal kernel interface for 
IMA and any other subsystems to access TPM functionality.  A subsystem 
first requests the chip it is trying to access with the tpm_chip_lookup 
function and then submitts TPM commands to that chip with the tpm_transmit 
function.  For security reasons IMA needs to be built into the 
kernel, in order for the TPM driver to be available during IMA 
initialization the module_init is replaced with an fs_initcall when the 
driver is built into the kernel.

This patch should apply against 2.6.12-rc4-mm2 plus the patch I submitted 
on May 16 to remove the unnecessary lpc initialization stuff.
