Hi Nayna,

+
+config IMA_SECURE_AND_OR_TRUSTED_BOOT
+ bool
+ depends on IMA
+ depends on IMA_ARCH_POLICY
+ default n
+ help
+ This option is selected by architectures to enable secure and/or
+ trusted boot based on IMA runtime policies.


Why is the default for this new config "n"?
Is there any reason to not turn on this config if both IMA and IMA_ARCH_POLICY are set to y?

thanks,
