Resending my last response as looks like it didn't go through mailing list because of some wrong formatting. My apologies to those who are receiving it twice.

Since powerpc also supports IMA_ARCH_POLICY for kernel image signature verification, please include the following:

"An alternative implementation for the powerpc arch is IMA_ARCH_POLICY. It verifies the appended kernel image signature and additionally includes both the signed and unsigned file hashes in the IMA measurement list, extends the IMA PCR in the TPM, and prevents blacklisted binary kernel images from being kexec'd."

Thanks & Regards,
