Subject[PATCH v2 4/9] kexec: add call to LSM hook in original kexec_load syscall
Date
In order for LSMs and IMA-appraisal to differentiate between the
original and new syscalls, both the original and new syscalls must call
an LSM hook. This patch adds a call to security_kernel_read_blob() in
the original kexec syscall.
