Is EVM really not supported on overlayfs after this change? Would you consider a better descriptive name, for the helper and flag, at least as descriptive as SB_I_IMA_UNVERIFIABLE_SIGNATURE? Thanks, Amir.

The EVM "portable & immutable" signature can be copied up, because it does not contain filesystem specific metadata. Support for the "original" EVM signature is limited, since it contains filesystem specific metadata, but it could be used to sign the overlay filesystem during a "setup" stage. Like the "original" EVM signatues, the EVM HMAC contains filesystem specific metadata. For this reason, they too cannot be copied up. In addition, without first verifying the file's EVM HMAC on the lower filesystem, calculating and writing the EVM HMAC on the overlay could result in making the lower level file with an invalid HMAC, valid. SB_I_EVM_UNSUPPORTED could be renamed SB_I_EVM_HMAC_UNSUPPORTED. Mimi

Unsupported filesystems currently do not enforce any signatures. Add support for signature enforcement of the "original" and "portable & immutable" signatures when EVM_INIT_X509 is enabled. The "original" signature type contains filesystem specific metadata. Thus it cannot be copied up and verified. However with EVM_INIT_X509 and EVM_ALLOW_METADATA_WRITES enabled, the "original" file signature may be written. When EVM_ALLOW_METADATA_WRITES is not set or once it is removed from /sys/kernel/security/evm by setting EVM_INIT_HMAC for example, it is not possible to write or remove xattrs on the overlay filesystem. This change still prevents EVM from writing HMAC signatures on unsupported filesystem when EVM_INIT_HMAC is enabled.
