H A Dsockets.h4549a8b7 Wed Feb 27 11:47:53 CST 2013 Stefan Berger <stefanb@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Add a TPM Passthrough backend driver implementation

This patch is based of off version 9 of Stefan Berger's patch series
"QEMU Trusted Platform Module (TPM) integration"
and adds a new backend driver for it.

This patch adds a passthrough backend driver for passing commands sent to the
emulated TPM device directly to a TPM device opened on the host machine.
Thus it is possible to use a hardware TPM device in a system running on QEMU,
providing the ability to access a TPM in a special state (e.g. after a Trusted
Boot).

This functionality is being used in the acTvSM Trusted Virtualization Platform
which is available on [1].

Usage example:
qemu-system-x86_64 -tpmdev passthrough,id=tpm0,path=/dev/tpm0 \
-device tpm-tis,tpmdev=tpm0 \
-cdrom test.iso -boot d

Some notes about the host TPM:
The TPM needs to be enabled and activated. If that's not the case one
has to go through the BIOS/UEFI and enable and activate that TPM for TPM
commands to work as expected.
It may be necessary to boot the kernel using tpm_tis.force=1 in the boot
command line or 'modprobe tpm_tis force=1' in case of using it as a module.
