[PATCH 3/3] evm: audit integrity metadata failures

From: Mimi Zohar
Date: Thu Jun 20 2013 - 11:16:06 EST


Before modifying an EVM protected extended attribute or any other
metadata included in the HMAC calculation, the existing 'security.evm'
is verified. This patch adds calls to integrity_audit_msg() to audit
integrity metadata failures.
