From: Krzysztof Struczynski krzysztof.struczynski@huawei.com Date: Mon, 27 Apr 2020 12:28:59 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ima: Set again build_ima_appraise variable
After adding the new add_rule() function in commit c52657d93b05 ("ima: refactor ima_init_policy()"), all appraisal flags are added to the temp_ima_appraise variable. Revert to the previous behavior instead of removing build_ima_appraise, to benefit from the protection offered by __ro_after_init.
The mentioned commit introduced a bug, as it makes all the flags modifiable, while build_ima_appraise flags can be protected with __ro_after_init.
