Each time a file in policy, that is already opened for write, is opened
for read, an open-writers integrity violation audit message is emitted
and a violation record is added to the IMA measurement list. This
occurs even if an open-writers violation has already been recorded.

Limit the number of open-writers integrity violations for an existing
file open for write to one.  After the existing file open for write
closes (__fput), subsequent open-writers integrity violations may be
emitted.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
