H A D | evm_main.c | f2544f5e Tue Feb 22 15:45:18 CST 2022 Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@infradead.org> EVM: fix the evm= __setup handler return value
__setup() handlers should return 1 if the parameter is handled. Returning 0 causes the entire string to be added to init's environment strings (limited to 32 strings), unnecessarily polluting it.
Using the documented string "evm=fix" causes an Unknown parameter message: Unknown kernel command line parameters "BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc5 evm=fix", will be passed to user space.
and that string is added to init's environment string space: Run /sbin/init as init process with arguments: /sbin/init with environment: HOME=/ TERM=linux BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc5 evm=fix
With this change, using "evm=fix" acts as expected and an invalid option ("evm=evm") causes a warning to be printed: evm: invalid "evm" mode but init's environment is not polluted with this string, as expected.
