   4 Description:
   5                 The Trusted Computing Group(TCG) runtime Integrity
   6                 Measurement Architecture(IMA) maintains a list of hash
   7                 values of executables and other sensitive system files
   8                 loaded into the run-time of this system.  At runtime,
   9                 the policy can be constrained based on LSM specific data.
  10                 Policies are loaded into the securityfs file ima/policy
  11                 by opening the file, writing the rules one at a time and
  12                 then closing the file.  The new policy takes effect after
  13                 the file ima/policy is closed.

  31                         dont_measure fsmagic=0x9fa0
  32                         # SYSFS_MAGIC

  36                         # TMPFS_MAGIC
  37                         dont_measure fsmagic=0x01021994
  38                         # SECURITYFS_MAGIC

  42                         measure func=FILE_MMAP mask=MAY_EXEC
  43                         measure func=INODE_PERM mask=MAY_READ uid=0
  44
  45                 The default policy measures all executables in bprm_check,
  46                 all files mmapped executable in file_mmap, and all files
  47                 open for read by root in inode_permission.
