- Note that once a key has been loaded, it will no longer be
- possible to enable metadata modification.
+ Echoing a value is additive, the new value is added to the
+ existing initialization flags.
+
+ For example, after::

+ echo 2 ><securityfs>/evm
+
+ another echo can be performed::
+
+ echo 1 ><securityfs>/evm

+ Note that once an HMAC key has been loaded, it will no longer

+ For example, if the current value is 6 (2 and 4 set)::

+ echo 1 ><securityfs>/evm
+
+ will set the new value to 3 (4 cleared).
+
+ Loading an HMAC key is the only way to disable metadata
+ modification.
Until key loading has been signaled EVM can not create
or validate the 'security.evm' xattr, but returns
