The idea is to use ima-buf template for the auxiliary measurement record. The auxiliary measurement record is an additional record to the one already created based on the existing policy. When func is passed as NONE, it represents it is an additional record. I am not sure what you mean by updating ima_get_action, it is already handling the ima policy.
