1. The test from non-root user passes.
2. Testing as root on IMA enabled kernel passes only files up to some size,
seems like 1GB is limit. All files that are bigger - hangs forever. The below
1GB file test on IMA kernel - it completed in 4 seconds. But files more than
1GB (I've tested 2GB and 3GB) hangs forever - I was waiting for 10 minuites -
no success. 

[Hors]:rus:~ # time -p md5sum 1GB 
5430f5bdcde8f7c3c222df24eed64741  1GB
real 4.39
user 2.84
sys 1.45

It is very strange that such size limit is present and it is not configurable.
Or this is IMA bug.
