Subject: [PATCH] ima: Install on filesystems without xattr support without
failing
If an RPM contains IMA signed digests and rpm-plugin-ima is installed,
then any attempt to install to a filesystem that doesn't support
extended attributes will cause the RPM installation to fail.
This can be seen, for example, if installing a file /boot, which is
usually a vFAT filesystem.
The rpm-plugin for selinux fixed this some time back, and that same
logic can be applied to IMA too - where, if a failure to set an extended
attribute results in an errno that is set to EOPNOTSUPP, then this
should not cause a complete failure, but should instead just be logged
at a debug level.
