Agreed. The changes don't even reflect the current patch.

Without ima_reset_kexec_file(), calling 'kexec load' consecutively without "kexec -s -e" in between fails. # kexec -s -l /boot/vmlinuz-`uname -r` --initrd=/boot/initramfs-`uname -r`.img --reuse-cmdline # kexec -s -l /boot/vmlinuz-`uname -r` --initrd=/boot/initramfs-`uname -r`.img --reuse-cmdline Killed As mentioned above, the call to ima_reset_kexec_file() resets ima_kexec_file.buf, so the segment size test always fails and the memory is being allocated.
