<title>dm: Allow .prepare_ioctl to handle ioctls directly</title>

<id>4862c8861d902d43645a493e441c4478be1c6c44</id>
<content type='text'>
This adds a 'bool *forward' parameter to .prepare_ioctl, which allows
device mapper targets to accept ioctls to themselves instead of the
underlying device. If the target already fully handled the ioctl, it
sets *forward to false and device mapper won't forward it to the
underlying device any more.

In order for targets to actually know what the ioctl is about and how to
handle it, pass also cmd and arg.

As long as targets restrict themselves to interpreting ioctls of type
DM_IOCTL, this is a backwards compatible change because previously, any
such ioctl would have been passed down through all device mapper layers
until it reached a device that can't understand the ioctl and would
return an error.

<content type='text'>
Eliminate duplicate boilerplate code for simple modules that contain
a single DM target driver without any additional setup code.

Add a new module_dm() macro, which replaces the module_init() and
module_exit() with template functions that call dm_register_target()
and dm_unregister_target() respectively.

<title>dm: update target status functions to support IMA measurement</title>

<id>8ec456629d0bf051e41ef2c87a60755f941dd11c</id>
<content type='text'>
For device mapper targets to take advantage of IMA's measurement
capabilities, the status functions for the individual targets need to be
updated to handle the status_type_t case for value STATUSTYPE_IMA.

Update status functions for the following target types, to log their
respective attributes to be measured using IMA.
 01. cache
 02. crypt
 03. integrity
 04. linear
 05. mirror
 06. multipath
 07. raid
 08. snapshot
 09. striped
 10. verity

For rest of the targets, handle the STATUSTYPE_IMA case by setting the
measurement buffer to NULL.

For IMA to measure the data on a given system, the IMA policy on the
system needs to be updated to have the following line, and the system
needs to be restarted for the measurements to take effect.

/etc/ima/ima-policy
 measure func=CRITICAL_DATA label=device-mapper template=ima-buf

The measurements will be reflected in the IMA logs, which are located at:

/sys/kernel/security/integrity/ima/ascii_runtime_measurements
/sys/kernel/security/integrity/ima/binary_runtime_measurements

These IMA logs can later be consumed by various attestation clients
running on the system, and send them to external services for attesting
the system.

The DM target data measured by IMA subsystem can alternatively
be queried from userspace by setting DM_IMA_MEASUREMENT_FLAG with
DM_TABLE_STATUS_CMD.
