It also does blacklist based on the file hash? There is a downstream patch that adds the support for the module signatures, and when the code is reused for KEXEC_SIG the blacklist also applies to it. Which kind of shows that people really want to use the IMA features but with no support on some major architectures it's not going to work. Thanks Michal
