Thanks for your feedback, Mimi.
But the document of dracut can't solve my problem.
I did more test these days and try to descript my question in more detail.
In my scenario, the trusted key will be sealed into TPM with PCR policy.
And there are some related options in manual like
hash= hash algorithm name as a string. For TPM 1.x the only
allowed value is sha1. For TPM 2.x the allowed values
are sha1, sha256, sha384, sha512 and sm3-256.
policydigest= digest for the authorization policy. must be calculated
with the same hash algorithm as specified by the 'hash='
option.
policyhandle= handle to an authorization policy session that defines the
same policy and with the same hash algorithm as was used to
seal the key.
Here is my test step.
Firstly, the pcr policy is generated as below:
$ tpm2_createpolicy --policy-pcr --pcr-list sha256:7 --policy pcr7_bin.policy > pcr7.policy
Pcr7.policy is the ascii hex of policy:
$ cat pcr7.policy
321fbd28b60fcc23017d501b133bd5dbf2889814588e8a23510fe10105cb2cc9
Then generate the trusted key and configure policydigest and get the key ID:
$ keyctl add trusted kmk "new 32 keyhandle=0x81000001 hash=sha256 policydigest=`cat pcr7.policy`" @u
874117045
Save the trusted key.
$ keyctl pipe 874117045 > kmk.blob
Reboot and load the key.
Start a auth session to generate the policy:
$ tpm2_startauthsession -S session.ctx
session-handle: 0x3000000
$ tpm2_pcrlist -L sha256:7 -o pcr7.sha256
$ tpm2_policypcr -S session.ctx -L sha256:7 -F pcr7.sha256 -f pcr7.policy
policy-digest: 0x321FBD28B60FCC23017D501B133BD5DBF2889814588E8A23510FE10105CB2CC9
Input the policy handle to load trusted key:
$ keyctl add trusted kmk "load `cat kmk.blob` keyhandle=0x81000001 policyhandle=0x3000000" @u
add_key: Operation not permitted
The error should be policy check failed, because I use TPM command to unseal directly with error of policy check failed.
$ tpm2_unseal -c 0x81000001 -L sha256:7
ERROR on line: "81" in file: "./lib/log.h": Tss2_Sys_Unseal(0x99D) - tpm:session(1):a policy check failed
ERROR on line: "213" in file: "tools/tpm2_unseal.c": Unseal failed!
ERROR on line: "166" in file: "tools/tpm2_tool.c": Unable to run tpm2_unseal
So my question is:
1. How to use the option, policydigest, policyhandle?? Is there any example?
2. What's wrong with my test step?
Thanks.

"Trusted Keys use a TPM both to generate and to seal the keys. Keys are sealed under a 2048 bit RSA key in the TPM, ..."
Trusted keys are not TPM keys. They are not stored in the TPM.

Right, they need to be re-loaded on boot. Refer to the dracut module /modules.d/97masterkey for loading a trusted key during boot.

Trusted keys are not stored in the TPM. Refer to the ima-evm-utils README for examples of creating a trusted key (kmk) and an encrypted key (evm-key).

The hex ascii encoded trusted key is sealed under the TPM SRK.
