Audit messages should be at a higher level. For example,
"hashing_error", "collect_data", "invalid_pcr". In the "invalid_pcr"
case, the audit log contains the reason - "ToMToU" or "open_writers" -
as to why the measurement list doesn't match the PCR.
Here you would want "measuring_keys", "measuring_boot_cmdline" with
the reason it failed, not the function name
"process_buffer_measurement".
Userspace needs to be aware of the new audit messages. Maybe include
samples of them in the cover letter.
thanks,
Mimi
