Not sure I understand this.  Maybe a typo?  Could you please explain?

mutex_lock(&ima_extend_list_mutex);
        if (!violation) {
-               if (ima_lookup_digest_entry(digest, entry->pcr)) {

Can't this change be simplified to "if (!violation && !allow_dup)"?

Sure.  Will do.

Earlier I wasn't sure if 'violation' would touch any other use-cases inadvertently. That's why I localized the change as above.

But now since we are supporting other scenarios as well,
I believe "if (!violation && !allow_dup)" would be cleaner.

Also perhaps instead of passing another variable "allow_dup" to each of
these functions, pass a mask containing violation and allow_dup.

There were examples of both approaches in ima_match_policy().
 - int *pcr/ima_template_desc **template_desc as an out-param;
 - and various actions as flags in return int.

Earlier I couldn't decide one way or the other, so I picked the out-param approach.

But since allow_dup is just a single bit info, returning it as a bit in the action flag is a cleaner solution.
Will implement it with flag in the next iteration.

Thanks again for reviewing the series.  Really appreciate it.

Thanks,
Tushar

                        goto out;
