On systems with IMA-appraisal enabled with a policy requiring file signatures, the "good" signature values are stored on the filesystem as extended attributes (security.ima). Signature verification failure would normally be limited to just a particular file (eg. executable), but during boot signature verification failure could result in a system hang. Defining and requiring a new public_key_signature field requires all callers of asymmetric signature verification to be updated to reflect the change. This patch updates the integrity asymmetric_verify() caller.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
