I thought that is just about collecting hashes, and > has nothing to do with signatures. There's IMA-measurement, IMA-audit, and IMA-appraisal. IMA-audit refers to adding the file hash to the audit log record. IMA- measurement stores the collected hash in the IMA measurement list and extends the TPM with the measurement, if there's a TPM. Based on policy, determines whether the file is measured, audited, and/or appraised. I actually do think it makes sense to require a signature, but not necessarily enforce signature verification, in order to differentiate the type of measurement being included in the measurement list. thanks, Mimi
