ima: provide flag to identify new empty files On ima_file_free(), newly created empty files are not labeled with an initial security.ima value, because the iversion did not change. Commit dff6efc "fs: fix iversion handling" introduced a change in iversion behavior. To verify this change use the shell command: $ (exec >foo) $ getfattr -h -e hex -d -m security foo This patch defines the IMA_NEW_FILE flag. The flag is initially set, when IMA detects that a new file is created, and subsequently checked on the ima_file_free() hook to set the initial security.ima value.
