Thank you for all the details.

A builtin IMA policy wasn't specified on the boot command line.  Unless
a custom IMA policy is loaded, it shouldn't get beyond this
point.   Before looking any farther, I would appreciate your confirming
that you've loaded a custom IMA policy.  To see if a policy has been
loaded, cat /sys/kernel/security/ima/policy.

thanks,

Mimi
