I didn't miss. sign-file is producing the raw PKCS#7 signature here (-d).

I'm doing something slightly different, to test the keyring ID part.
I'm retrieving an existing kernel module (actually this does not work
in the CI), parsing it to extract the raw signature, and passing it to the
eBPF program for verification.

Since the kernel module is signed with a key in the built-in keyring,
passing 1 or 0 as ID should work.
