S390 uses appended signature for kernel but implements the check
separately from module loader.

Support for secure boot on powerpc with appended signature is planned -
grub patches submitted upstream but not yet merged.

Power Non-Virtualised / OpenPower already supports secure boot via kexec
with signature verification via IMA. I think you have now sent a
follow-up series that merges some of the IMA implementation, I just
wanted to make sure it was clear that we actually already have support

So is IMA_KEXEC and KEXEC_SIG redundant?

I see some architectures have both. I also see there is a lot of overlap
between the IMA framework and the KEXEC_SIG and MODULE_SIg.

Thanks
