From a210fd32a46bae6d05b43860fe3b47732501d63b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mimi Zohar Date: Fri, 13 Jul 2018 14:05:57 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] kexec: add call to LSM hook in original kexec_load syscall In order for LSMs and IMA-appraisal to differentiate between kexec_load and kexec_file_load syscalls, both the original and new syscalls must call an LSM hook. This patch adds a call to security_kernel_load_data() in the original kexec_load syscall.
