I booted the kernel with ima_policy=tcb.

Unfortunately after enabling the following, fw_run_tests.sh does not run.

mkdir /sys/kernel/security
mount -t securityfs securityfs /sys/kernel/security
echo "measure func=FIRMWARE_CHECK" > /sys/kernel/security/ima/policy
echo "appraise func=FIRMWARE_CHECK appraise_type=imasig" > /sys/kernel/security/ima/policy
./fw_run_tests.sh
