The default template is ima-ng, right?
>From what you write I understand that "measure func=KEY_CHECK
keyrings=.ima|.evm" will work only on newer kernel, thus we should always use
template=ima-buf as the policy example so that it's working also on that few
kernels between <v5.6,v5.10> (which have IMA key functionality, but not
dea87d0889dd), right?

But we should mention that in the README.md.

Kind regards,
Petr
