On kexec file load, the Integrity Measurement Architecture (IMA) subsystem may verify the IMA signature of the kernel and initramfs, and measure it. The command line parameters passed to the kernel in the kexec call may also be measured by IMA. A remote attestation service can verify a TPM quote based on the TPM event log, the IMA measurement list and the TPM PCR data. This can be achieved only if the IMA measurement log is carried over from the current kernel to the next kernel across the kexec call. PowerPC and ARM64 both achieve this using device tree with a "linux,ima-kexec-buffer" node. x86 platforms generally don't make use of device tree, so use the setup_data mechanism to pass the IMA buffer to the new kernel.

Linux kernel
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use make htmldocs or
make pdfdocs. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
