The use-case I had in mind was a simple measured boot, no user-space applications, only to measure already signed modules which are already signed by modsig using a single policy line: measure func=MODULE_CHECK I thought for this purpose, we could just compile in the default template to be modsig but it wasn't selectable. I have overlooked the policy rule "template=", In the above use-case, it also just works to set the policy: measure func=MODULE_CHECK template=ima-modsig So, your are right maybe that is not necessary.
