I'm not sure how this relates to the question of whether IMA verifies the kexec kernel image signature, as the test would not be based on a Kconfig option, but on a runtime variable. To answer your question, the rule for requiring the policy to be signed is: appraise func=POLICY_CHECK appraise_type=imasig When the ability to append rules is Kconfig enabled, the builtin policy requires the new policy or additional rules to be signed. Unfortunately, always requiring the policy to be signed, would have broken userspace.
