In all other cases, where the IMA_APPRAISE_ENFORCE is not enabled we allow the action. Here we prevent loading the policy, but don't return an error. One option, as you did, is return some indication that the policy was not loaded. Another option would be to allow loading the policy in LOG or FIX mode, but I don't think that would be productive. Perhaps differentiate between the LOG and FIX modes from the OFF mode. For the LOG and FIX modes, perhaps return -EACCES as well. For the OFF case, loading a policy with appraise rules should not be permitted.

In LOG or FIX mode, loading a policy with absolute path will succeed. Maybe we should just keep the same behavior also when the policy is directly written to securityfs.
Ok for the OFF mode, but probably this should be a separate patch.

Yes
Maybe we should just keep the same behavior also when the policy is directly written to securityfs.
The purpose of LOG mode is to learn about the filesystem behavior in order to label it properly. FIX mode is for re-calculating and fixing existing file hashes. If we permit directly writing the policy to securityfs, even if the existing policy requires the policy to be signed, then it is behaving differently than it would in enforcing mode. I'm ok with that, as long as the error message is emitted.
Ok for the OFF mode, but probably this should be a separate patch.
Agreed
