Since the "dmverity_roothash=" field name is going to be written to
the audit record regardless of CONFIG_IPE_PROP_DM_VERITY we should
ensure that it has a value of "?" instead of nothing. To fix that
I would suggest something like this:

{
audit_log_format(ab, "?");

If you wanted to avoid the roothash change above, you could change the
code here so it didn't always write "dmverity_roothash=" into the audit
record.

Yes this sounds more reasonable to me, I will change this part to a switch case statement to avoid unnessary logging.

Why is @value void? You should make it a digest_info type or simply
skip the second parameter and return a digest_info pointer.

Yes it should better just return a digest_info type pointer. I will update this part.

Since you're running a strlen() over @raw_digest, you might as well
just use kstrdup() instead of kstrndup().

Thanks I will update this part.

Similar to the above, why not make the @expect parameter a digest_info
type? Also, why not pass a second digest_info parameter instead of
a separate @digest, @digest_len, and @alg?

The digest_info was inteneded to be used for policy only, which also contains a raw string of digest in the policy that can be used during audit. After second thought I start to think the raw_digest seems unnecessary and I can refactor them all to use digest_info instead.

You don't need @ino.

build_ipe_bdev_ctx(ctx, d_real_inode(file->f_path.dentry));

This variable will make sense in the fsverity patch, I do agree it doesn't make sense for this one. Will remove it.

Building on my comments above in ipe_digest_eval(), if you convert it
to use digest_info structs this is simplified:

ipe_digest_eval(p->vlaue, ctx->ipe_bdev)

Yep but the seucrity blob also contains signature information. I will make it like ipe_digest_eval(p->vlaue, ctx->ipe_bdev->dmv_digest_info)

Do you need both evaluate_dmv_sig_true() and evaluate_dmv_sig_false()?
If yes, you should make one call the other and return the inverse to
help ensure there are no oddities.

Yes this code is redundant. I also found the ipe_prop *p variable is necssary. Will clean them up in the next version.

You need to cleanup @blob on error so you don't leak ipe_bdev::digest.
