[$] Adding fs-verity support for Fedora 36?

Post Syndicated from original https://lwn.net/Articles/878281/rss

Adding fs-verity file-integrity information
to RPM packages for Fedora 36 is the
topic of a recent discussion on the Fedora devel mailing list. The feature
would provide a means to install files from RPM packages as read-only files
that cannot be read or otherwise operated on if the data in the files changes
at any point. The proposal is mostly about making the plumbing available
for use cases that are not particularly clear—which has led to some
questions and skepticism among those participating in the thread.
