Please correct me if I'm wrong.  Your code walks the measurement list
calculating the total number of measurements and the memory size
needed to store in the kexec header.  Can't there be additional
measurements between the time these values - total number of
measurements and memory needed - were calculated and actually saving
the measurements?  How would that be any different than the problem
you're trying to solve?  In both cases, the number of measurements
might be less than the actual number of measurements.

As long as you query the number of measurements before getting the
memory needed, unless you're trying to verify a TPM quote, having
fewer measurements shouldn't be a problem for testing.

Does this test need to be in the loop?

The problem is that the total number of entries and the required
memory size might be inconsistent without taking ima_extend_list_mutex.
ima_measurements_start() could read the entries counter before
it is incremented by ima_add_digest_entry() and the required memory
size after it is updated. If this happens, the parser returns an error
because ENFORCE_BUFEND is set for the last entry and there would be
still data to read (the new entry added to the list).

I don't see this as being any different than what happens when the
kernel saves the measurement list. Originally, the memory size was
defined at kexec load, but only populated at kexec execute.  There was
plenty of time between the kexec load and execute for additional
measurement records to be added.

The upstreamed version defines the buffer size and populates it at
kexec load.  However kexec load itself generates additional
measurements, so it has to reserve more memory than what is returned
by ima_get_binary_runtime_size(). (Refer to ima_add_kexec_buffer.)

When restoring the buffer, it processes the number of records as
stored in the header, making sure it doesn't go beyond the buffer
size.

ima_dump_measurement_list() determines the total number of entries and
the required memory size (which are written to the kexec header) after
iterating over the whole list. Are new entries added to the kexec buffer
after ima_dump_measurement_list() is called?

The upstreamed version allocates the segment in kexec load and then
fills the buffer.  However, in between getting the current memory size
needed and filling the buffer, additional measurements can be added.
Thus the segment size needs to be larger than the current memory
size. 

The header reflects the number of measurements and the actual buffer
size, not the segment size.  When restoring the measurement list,
however, we rely on the number of measurements and use the buffer size
as a reference to prevent accessing memory beyond the buffer.  The
buffer size does not need to be exact.

** Note **
This upstream version, which doesn't update the measurement list in
kexec execute, requires all files to be pre-measured, before calling
kexec load.  Otherwise, the measurement list will not validate against
the quoted TPM PCRs.

ima_measurements_start() should return the list entry at position *pos.
The line above prevents qe_found from being updated when the loop
continues until the last list entry.

Yes. Otherwise, ima_measurements_start() would iterate over the whole
list when it is not necessary.

Wouldn't a simple if/then be more appropriate here?

Oh, for displaying the measurement list you need to set qe_found
before returning.
