 QEMU TPM Device
 ===============

 Guest-side hardware interface
 =============================

 TIS interface
 -------------

 The QEMU TPM emulation implements a TPM TIS hardware interface
 following the Trusted Computing Group's specification "TCG PC Client
 Specific TPM Interface Specification (TIS)", Specification Version
 1.3, 21 March 2013. (see the `TIS specification`_, or a later version
 of it).

 The TIS interface makes a memory mapped IO region in the area
 0xfed40000-0xfed44fff available to the guest operating system.

 QEMU files related to TPM TIS interface:
  - ``hw/tpm/tpm_tis_common.c``
  - ``hw/tpm/tpm_tis_isa.c``
  - ``hw/tpm/tpm_tis_sysbus.c``
  - ``hw/tpm/tpm_tis_i2c.c``
  - ``hw/tpm/tpm_tis.h``

 Both an ISA device and a sysbus device are available. The former is
 used with pc/q35 machine while the latter can be instantiated in the
 Arm virt machine.

 An I2C device support is also provided which can be instantiated in the Arm
 based emulation machines. This device only supports the TPM 2 protocol.

 CRB interface
 -------------

 QEMU also implements a TPM CRB interface following the Trusted
 Computing Group's specification "TCG PC Client Platform TPM Profile
 (PTP) Specification", Family "2.0", Level 00 Revision 01.03 v22, May
 22, 2017. (see the `CRB specification`_, or a later version of it)

 The CRB interface makes a memory mapped IO region in the area
 0xfed40000-0xfed40fff (1 locality) available to the guest
 operating system.

 QEMU files related to TPM CRB interface:
  - ``hw/tpm/tpm_crb.c``

 SPAPR interface
 ---------------

 pSeries (ppc64) machines offer a tpm-spapr device model.

 QEMU files related to the SPAPR interface:
  - ``hw/tpm/tpm_spapr.c``

 fw_cfg interface
 ================

 The bios/firmware may read the ``"etc/tpm/config"`` fw_cfg entry for
 configuring the guest appropriately.

 The entry of 6 bytes has the following content, in little-endian:

 .. code-block:: c

     #define TPM_VERSION_UNSPEC          0
     #define TPM_VERSION_1_2             1
     #define TPM_VERSION_2_0             2

     #define TPM_PPI_VERSION_NONE        0
     #define TPM_PPI_VERSION_1_30        1

     struct FwCfgTPMConfig {
         uint32_t tpmppi_address;         /* PPI memory location */
         uint8_t tpm_version;             /* TPM version */
         uint8_t tpmppi_version;          /* PPI version */
     };

 ACPI interface
 ==============

 The TPM device is defined with ACPI ID "PNP0C31". QEMU builds a SSDT
 and passes it into the guest through the fw_cfg device. The device
 description contains the base address of the TIS interface 0xfed40000
 and the size of the MMIO area (0x5000). In case a TPM2 is used by
 QEMU, a TPM2 ACPI table is also provided.  The device is described to
 be used in polling mode rather than interrupt mode primarily because
 no unused IRQ could be found.

 To support measurement logs to be written by the firmware,
 e.g. SeaBIOS, a TCPA table is implemented. This table provides a 64kb
 buffer where the firmware can write its log into. For TPM 2 only a
 more recent version of the TPM2 table provides support for
 measurements logs and a TCPA table does not need to be created.

 The TCPA and TPM2 ACPI tables follow the Trusted Computing Group
 specification "TCG ACPI Specification" Family "1.2" and "2.0", Level
 00 Revision 00.37. (see the `ACPI specification`_, or a later version
 of it)

 ACPI PPI Interface
 ------------------

 QEMU supports the Physical Presence Interface (PPI) for TPM 1.2 and
 TPM 2. This interface requires ACPI and firmware support. (see the
 `PPI specification`_)

 PPI enables a system administrator (root) to request a modification to
 the TPM upon reboot. The PPI specification defines the operation
 requests and the actions the firmware has to take. The system
 administrator passes the operation request number to the firmware
 through an ACPI interface which writes this number to a memory
 location that the firmware knows. Upon reboot, the firmware finds the
 number and sends commands to the TPM. The firmware writes the TPM
 result code and the operation request number to a memory location that
 ACPI can read from and pass the result on to the administrator.

 The PPI specification defines a set of mandatory and optional
 operations for the firmware to implement. The ACPI interface also
 allows an administrator to list the supported operations. In QEMU the
 ACPI code is generated by QEMU, yet the firmware needs to implement
 support on a per-operations basis, and different firmwares may support
 a different subset. Therefore, QEMU introduces the virtual memory
 device for PPI where the firmware can indicate which operations it
 supports and ACPI can enable the ones that are supported and disable
 all others. This interface lies in main memory and has the following
 layout:

 TPM backend devices
 ===================

 The TPM implementation is split into two parts, frontend and
 backend. The frontend part is the hardware interface, such as the TPM
 TIS interface described earlier, and the other part is the TPM backend
 interface. The backend interfaces implement the interaction with a TPM
 device, which may be a physical or an emulated device. The split
 between the front- and backend devices allows a frontend to be
 connected with any available backend. This enables the TIS interface
 to be used with the passthrough backend or the swtpm backend.

 QEMU files related to TPM backends:
  - ``backends/tpm.c``
  - ``include/sysemu/tpm.h``
  - ``include/sysemu/tpm_backend.h``

 The QEMU TPM passthrough device
 -------------------------------

 In case QEMU is run on Linux as the host operating system it is
 possible to make the hardware TPM device available to a single QEMU
 guest. In this case the user must make sure that no other program is
 using the device, e.g., /dev/tpm0, before trying to start QEMU with
 it.

 The passthrough driver uses the host's TPM device for sending TPM
 commands and receiving responses from. Besides that it accesses the
 TPM device's sysfs entry for support of command cancellation. Since
 none of the state of a hardware TPM can be migrated between hosts,
 virtual machine migration is disabled when the TPM passthrough driver
 is used.

 Since the host's TPM device will already be initialized by the host's
 firmware, certain commands, e.g. ``TPM_Startup()``, sent by the
 virtual firmware for device initialization, will fail. In this case
 the firmware should not use the TPM.

 Sharing the device with the host is generally not a recommended usage
 scenario for a TPM device. The primary reason for this is that two
 operating systems can then access the device's single set of
 resources, such as platform configuration registers
 (PCRs). Applications or kernel security subsystems, such as the Linux
 Integrity Measurement Architecture (IMA), are not expecting to share
 PCRs.

 QEMU files related to the TPM passthrough device:
  - ``backends/tpm/tpm_passthrough.c``
  - ``backends/tpm/tpm_util.c``
  - ``include/sysemu/tpm_util.h``


 Command line to start QEMU with the TPM passthrough device using the host's
 hardware TPM ``/dev/tpm0``:

 .. code-block:: console

   qemu-system-x86_64 -display sdl -accel kvm \
   -m 1024 -boot d -bios bios-256k.bin -boot menu=on \
   -tpmdev passthrough,id=tpm0,path=/dev/tpm0 \
   -device tpm-tis,tpmdev=tpm0 test.img


 The following commands should result in similar output inside the VM
 with a Linux kernel that either has the TPM TIS driver built-in or
 available as a module (assuming a TPM 2 is passed through):

 .. code-block:: console

   # dmesg | grep -i tpm
   [    0.012560] ACPI: TPM2 0x000000000BFFD1900 00004C (v04 BOCHS  \
       BXPC     0000001 BXPC 00000001)

   # ls -l /dev/tpm*
   crw-rw----. 1 tss root  10,   224 Sep  6 12:36 /dev/tpm0
   crw-rw----. 1 tss rss  253, 65536 Sep  6 12:36 /dev/tpmrm0

   Starting with Linux 5.12 there are PCR entries for TPM 2 in sysfs:
   # find /sys/devices/ -type f | grep pcr-sha
   ...
   /sys/devices/LNXSYSTEM:00/LNXSYBUS:00/MSFT0101:00/tpm/tpm0/pcr-sha256/1
   ...
   /sys/devices/LNXSYSTEM:00/LNXSYBUS:00/MSFT0101:00/tpm/tpm0/pcr-sha256/9
   ...

 The QEMU TPM emulator device
 ----------------------------

 The TPM emulator device uses an external TPM emulator called 'swtpm'
 for sending TPM commands to and receiving responses from. The swtpm
 program must have been started before trying to access it through the
 TPM emulator with QEMU.

 The TPM emulator implements a command channel for transferring TPM
 commands and responses as well as a control channel over which control
 commands can be sent. (see the `SWTPM protocol`_ specification)

 The control channel serves the purpose of resetting, initializing, and
 migrating the TPM state, among other things.

 The swtpm program behaves like a hardware TPM and therefore needs to
 be initialized by the firmware running inside the QEMU virtual
 machine.  One necessary step for initializing the device is to send
 the TPM_Startup command to it. SeaBIOS, for example, has been
 instrumented to initialize a TPM 1.2 or TPM 2 device using this
 command.

 QEMU files related to the TPM emulator device:
  - ``backends/tpm/tpm_emulator.c``
  - ``backends/tpm/tpm_util.c``
  - ``include/sysemu/tpm_util.h``

 The following commands start the swtpm with a UnixIO control channel over
 a socket interface. They do not need to be run as root.

 .. code-block:: console

   mkdir /tmp/mytpm1
   swtpm socket --tpmstate dir=/tmp/mytpm1 \
     --ctrl type=unixio,path=/tmp/mytpm1/swtpm-sock \
     --tpm2 \
     --log level=20

 Command line to start QEMU with the TPM emulator device communicating
 with the swtpm (x86):

 .. code-block:: console

   qemu-system-x86_64 -display sdl -accel kvm \
     -m 1024 -boot d -bios bios-256k.bin -boot menu=on \
     -chardev socket,id=chrtpm,path=/tmp/mytpm1/swtpm-sock \
     -tpmdev emulator,id=tpm0,chardev=chrtpm \
     -device tpm-tis,tpmdev=tpm0 test.img

 In case a pSeries machine is emulated, use the following command line:

 .. code-block:: console

   qemu-system-ppc64 -display sdl -machine pseries,accel=kvm \
     -m 1024 -bios slof.bin -boot menu=on \
     -nodefaults -device VGA -device pci-ohci -device usb-kbd \
     -chardev socket,id=chrtpm,path=/tmp/mytpm1/swtpm-sock \
     -tpmdev emulator,id=tpm0,chardev=chrtpm \
     -device tpm-spapr,tpmdev=tpm0 \
     -device spapr-vscsi,id=scsi0,reg=0x00002000 \
     -device virtio-blk-pci,scsi=off,bus=pci.0,addr=0x3,drive=drive-virtio-disk0,id=virtio-disk0 \
     -drive file=test.img,format=raw,if=none,id=drive-virtio-disk0

 In case an Arm virt machine is emulated, use the following command line:

 .. code-block:: console

   qemu-system-aarch64 -machine virt,gic-version=3,accel=kvm \
     -cpu host -m 4G \
     -nographic -no-acpi \
     -chardev socket,id=chrtpm,path=/tmp/mytpm1/swtpm-sock \
     -tpmdev emulator,id=tpm0,chardev=chrtpm \
     -device tpm-tis-device,tpmdev=tpm0 \
     -device virtio-blk-pci,drive=drv0 \
     -drive format=qcow2,file=hda.qcow2,if=none,id=drv0 \
     -drive if=pflash,format=raw,file=flash0.img,readonly=on \
     -drive if=pflash,format=raw,file=flash1.img

 In case a ast2600-evb bmc machine is emulated and you want to use a TPM device
 attached to I2C bus, use the following command line:

 .. code-block:: console

   qemu-system-arm -M ast2600-evb -nographic \
     -kernel arch/arm/boot/zImage \
     -dtb arch/arm/boot/dts/aspeed-ast2600-evb.dtb \
     -initrd rootfs.cpio \
     -chardev socket,id=chrtpm,path=/tmp/mytpm1/swtpm-sock \
     -tpmdev emulator,id=tpm0,chardev=chrtpm \
     -device tpm-tis-i2c,tpmdev=tpm0,bus=aspeed.i2c.bus.12,address=0x2e

   For testing, use this command to load the driver to the correct address

   echo tpm_tis_i2c 0x2e > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-12/new_device

 In case SeaBIOS is used as firmware, it should show the TPM menu item
 after entering the menu with 'ESC'.

 .. code-block:: console

   Select boot device:
   1. DVD/CD [ata1-0: QEMU DVD-ROM ATAPI-4 DVD/CD]
   [...]
   5. Legacy option rom

   t. TPM Configuration

 The following commands should result in similar output inside the VM
 with a Linux kernel that either has the TPM TIS driver built-in or
 available as a module:

 .. code-block:: console

   # dmesg | grep -i tpm
   [    0.012560] ACPI: TPM2 0x000000000BFFD1900 00004C (v04 BOCHS  \

   crw-rw----. 1 tss rss  253, 65536 Sep  6 12:36 /dev/tpmrm0

   Starting with Linux 5.12 there are PCR entries for TPM 2 in sysfs:
   # find /sys/devices/ -type f | grep pcr-sha
   ...
   /sys/devices/LNXSYSTEM:00/LNXSYBUS:00/MSFT0101:00/tpm/tpm0/pcr-sha256/1

   ...

 Migration with the TPM emulator
 ===============================

 The TPM emulator supports the following types of virtual machine
 migration:

 - VM save / restore (migration into a file)
 - Network migration
 - Snapshotting (migration into storage like QoW2 or QED)

 The following command sequences can be used to test VM save / restore.

 In a 1st terminal start an instance of a swtpm using the following command:

 .. code-block:: console

   mkdir /tmp/mytpm1
   swtpm socket --tpmstate dir=/tmp/mytpm1 \
     --ctrl type=unixio,path=/tmp/mytpm1/swtpm-sock \
     --tpm2 \
     --log level=20

 In a 2nd terminal start the VM:

 .. code-block:: console

   qemu-system-x86_64 -display sdl -accel kvm \
     -m 1024 -boot d -bios bios-256k.bin -boot menu=on \
     -chardev socket,id=chrtpm,path=/tmp/mytpm1/swtpm-sock \
     -tpmdev emulator,id=tpm0,chardev=chrtpm \
     -device tpm-tis,tpmdev=tpm0 \
     -monitor stdio \
     test.img

 Verify that the attached TPM is working as expected using applications
 inside the VM.

 To store the state of the VM use the following command in the QEMU
 monitor in the 2nd terminal:

 .. code-block:: console

   (qemu) migrate "exec:cat > testvm.bin"
   (qemu) quit

 At this point a file called ``testvm.bin`` should exists and the swtpm
 and QEMU processes should have ended.

 To test 'VM restore' you have to start the swtpm with the same
 parameters as before. If previously a TPM 2 [--tpm2] was saved, --tpm2
 must now be passed again on the command line.

 In the 1st terminal restart the swtpm with the same command line as
 before:

 .. code-block:: console

   swtpm socket --tpmstate dir=/tmp/mytpm1 \
     --ctrl type=unixio,path=/tmp/mytpm1/swtpm-sock \
     --log level=20 --tpm2

 In the 2nd terminal restore the state of the VM using the additional
 '-incoming' option.

 .. code-block:: console

   qemu-system-x86_64 -display sdl -accel kvm \
     -m 1024 -boot d -bios bios-256k.bin -boot menu=on \
     -chardev socket,id=chrtpm,path=/tmp/mytpm1/swtpm-sock \
     -tpmdev emulator,id=tpm0,chardev=chrtpm \
     -device tpm-tis,tpmdev=tpm0 \
     -incoming "exec:cat < testvm.bin" \
     test.img

 Troubleshooting migration
 -------------------------

 There are several reasons why migration may fail. In case of problems,
 please ensure that the command lines adhere to the following rules
 and, if possible, that identical versions of QEMU and swtpm are used
 at all times.

 VM save and restore:

  - QEMU command line parameters should be identical apart from the
    '-incoming' option on VM restore

  - swtpm command line parameters should be identical

 VM migration to 'localhost':

  - QEMU command line parameters should be identical apart from the
    '-incoming' option on the destination side

  - swtpm command line parameters should point to two different
    directories on the source and destination swtpm (--tpmstate dir=...)
    (especially if different versions of libtpms were to be used on the
    same machine).

 VM migration across the network:

  - QEMU command line parameters should be identical apart from the
    '-incoming' option on the destination side

  - swtpm command line parameters should be identical

 VM Snapshotting:
  - QEMU command line parameters should be identical

  - swtpm command line parameters should be identical


 Besides that, migration failure reasons on the swtpm level may include
 the following:

  - the versions of the swtpm on the source and destination sides are
    incompatible

    - downgrading of TPM state may not be supported

    - the source and destination libtpms were compiled with different
      compile-time options and the destination side refuses to accept the
      state

  - different migration keys are used on the source and destination side
    and the destination side cannot decrypt the migrated state
    (swtpm ... --migration-key ... )

	Guest-side hardware interface
	=============================

	TIS interface
	-------------

	The QEMU TPM emulation implements a TPM TIS hardware interface
	following the Trusted Computing Group's specification "TCG PC Client
	Specific TPM Interface Specification (TIS)", Specification Version
	1.3, 21 March 2013. (see the `TIS specification`_, or a later version
	of it).

	The TIS interface makes a memory mapped IO region in the area
	0xfed40000-0xfed44fff available to the guest operating system.

	QEMU files related to TPM TIS interface:
	- ``hw/tpm/tpm_tis_common.c``
	- ``hw/tpm/tpm_tis_isa.c``
	- ``hw/tpm/tpm_tis_sysbus.c``
	- ``hw/tpm/tpm_tis_i2c.c``
	- ``hw/tpm/tpm_tis.h``

	Both an ISA device and a sysbus device are available. The former is
	used with pc/q35 machine while the latter can be instantiated in the
	Arm virt machine.

	An I2C device support is also provided which can be instantiated in the Arm
	based emulation machines. This device only supports the TPM 2 protocol.

	CRB interface
	-------------

	QEMU also implements a TPM CRB interface following the Trusted
	Computing Group's specification "TCG PC Client Platform TPM Profile
	(PTP) Specification", Family "2.0", Level 00 Revision 01.03 v22, May
	22, 2017. (see the `CRB specification`_, or a later version of it)

	The CRB interface makes a memory mapped IO region in the area
	0xfed40000-0xfed40fff (1 locality) available to the guest
	operating system.

	QEMU files related to TPM CRB interface:
	- ``hw/tpm/tpm_crb.c``

	SPAPR interface
	---------------

	pSeries (ppc64) machines offer a tpm-spapr device model.

	QEMU files related to the SPAPR interface:
	- ``hw/tpm/tpm_spapr.c``

	fw_cfg interface
	================

	The bios/firmware may read the ``"etc/tpm/config"`` fw_cfg entry for
	configuring the guest appropriately.

	The entry of 6 bytes has the following content, in little-endian:

	.. code-block:: c

	#define TPM_VERSION_UNSPEC 0
	#define TPM_VERSION_1_2 1
	#define TPM_VERSION_2_0 2

	#define TPM_PPI_VERSION_NONE 0
	#define TPM_PPI_VERSION_1_30 1

	struct FwCfgTPMConfig {
	uint32_t tpmppi_address; /* PPI memory location */
	uint8_t tpm_version; /* TPM version */
	uint8_t tpmppi_version; /* PPI version */
	};

	ACPI interface
	==============

	The TPM device is defined with ACPI ID "PNP0C31". QEMU builds a SSDT
	and passes it into the guest through the fw_cfg device. The device
	description contains the base address of the TIS interface 0xfed40000
	and the size of the MMIO area (0x5000). In case a TPM2 is used by
	QEMU, a TPM2 ACPI table is also provided. The device is described to
	be used in polling mode rather than interrupt mode primarily because
	no unused IRQ could be found.

	To support measurement logs to be written by the firmware,
	e.g. SeaBIOS, a TCPA table is implemented. This table provides a 64kb
	buffer where the firmware can write its log into. For TPM 2 only a
	more recent version of the TPM2 table provides support for
	measurements logs and a TCPA table does not need to be created.

	The TCPA and TPM2 ACPI tables follow the Trusted Computing Group
	specification "TCG ACPI Specification" Family "1.2" and "2.0", Level
	00 Revision 00.37. (see the `ACPI specification`_, or a later version
	of it)

	ACPI PPI Interface
	------------------

	QEMU supports the Physical Presence Interface (PPI) for TPM 1.2 and
	TPM 2. This interface requires ACPI and firmware support. (see the
	`PPI specification`_)

	PPI enables a system administrator (root) to request a modification to
	the TPM upon reboot. The PPI specification defines the operation
	requests and the actions the firmware has to take. The system
	administrator passes the operation request number to the firmware
	through an ACPI interface which writes this number to a memory
	location that the firmware knows. Upon reboot, the firmware finds the
	number and sends commands to the TPM. The firmware writes the TPM
	result code and the operation request number to a memory location that
	ACPI can read from and pass the result on to the administrator.

	The PPI specification defines a set of mandatory and optional
	operations for the firmware to implement. The ACPI interface also
	allows an administrator to list the supported operations. In QEMU the
	ACPI code is generated by QEMU, yet the firmware needs to implement
	support on a per-operations basis, and different firmwares may support
	a different subset. Therefore, QEMU introduces the virtual memory
	device for PPI where the firmware can indicate which operations it
	supports and ACPI can enable the ones that are supported and disable
	all others. This interface lies in main memory and has the following
	layout:

	+-------------+--------+--------+-------------------------------------------+
	\| Field \| Length \| Offset \| Description \|
	+=============+========+========+===========================================+
	\| ``func`` \| 0x100 \| 0x000 \| Firmware sets values for each supported \|

	+----------+-------------------------------------------------------------+

	The location of the table is given by the fw_cfg ``tpmppi_address``
	field. The PPI memory region size is 0x400 (``TPM_PPI_ADDR_SIZE``) to
	leave enough room for future updates.

	- ``hw/i386/acpi-build.c``
	- ``include/hw/acpi/tpm.h``

	TPM backend devices
	===================

	The TPM implementation is split into two parts, frontend and
	backend. The frontend part is the hardware interface, such as the TPM
	TIS interface described earlier, and the other part is the TPM backend
	interface. The backend interfaces implement the interaction with a TPM
	device, which may be a physical or an emulated device. The split
	between the front- and backend devices allows a frontend to be
	connected with any available backend. This enables the TIS interface
	to be used with the passthrough backend or the swtpm backend.

	QEMU files related to TPM backends:
	- ``backends/tpm.c``
	- ``include/sysemu/tpm.h``
	- ``include/sysemu/tpm_backend.h``

	The QEMU TPM passthrough device
	-------------------------------

	In case QEMU is run on Linux as the host operating system it is
	possible to make the hardware TPM device available to a single QEMU
	guest. In this case the user must make sure that no other program is
	using the device, e.g., /dev/tpm0, before trying to start QEMU with
	it.

	The passthrough driver uses the host's TPM device for sending TPM
	commands and receiving responses from. Besides that it accesses the
	TPM device's sysfs entry for support of command cancellation. Since
	none of the state of a hardware TPM can be migrated between hosts,
	virtual machine migration is disabled when the TPM passthrough driver
	is used.

	Since the host's TPM device will already be initialized by the host's
	firmware, certain commands, e.g. ``TPM_Startup()``, sent by the
	virtual firmware for device initialization, will fail. In this case
	the firmware should not use the TPM.

	Sharing the device with the host is generally not a recommended usage
	scenario for a TPM device. The primary reason for this is that two
	operating systems can then access the device's single set of
	resources, such as platform configuration registers
	(PCRs). Applications or kernel security subsystems, such as the Linux
	Integrity Measurement Architecture (IMA), are not expecting to share
	PCRs.

	QEMU files related to the TPM passthrough device:
	- ``backends/tpm/tpm_passthrough.c``
	- ``backends/tpm/tpm_util.c``
	- ``include/sysemu/tpm_util.h``


	Command line to start QEMU with the TPM passthrough device using the host's
	hardware TPM ``/dev/tpm0``:

	.. code-block:: console

	qemu-system-x86_64 -display sdl -accel kvm \
	-m 1024 -boot d -bios bios-256k.bin -boot menu=on \
	-tpmdev passthrough,id=tpm0,path=/dev/tpm0 \
	-device tpm-tis,tpmdev=tpm0 test.img


	The following commands should result in similar output inside the VM
	with a Linux kernel that either has the TPM TIS driver built-in or
	available as a module (assuming a TPM 2 is passed through):

	.. code-block:: console

	# dmesg \| grep -i tpm
	[ 0.012560] ACPI: TPM2 0x000000000BFFD1900 00004C (v04 BOCHS \
	BXPC 0000001 BXPC 00000001)

	# ls -l /dev/tpm*
	crw-rw----. 1 tss root 10, 224 Sep 6 12:36 /dev/tpm0
	crw-rw----. 1 tss rss 253, 65536 Sep 6 12:36 /dev/tpmrm0

	Starting with Linux 5.12 there are PCR entries for TPM 2 in sysfs:
	# find /sys/devices/ -type f \| grep pcr-sha
	...
	/sys/devices/LNXSYSTEM:00/LNXSYBUS:00/MSFT0101:00/tpm/tpm0/pcr-sha256/1
	...
	/sys/devices/LNXSYSTEM:00/LNXSYBUS:00/MSFT0101:00/tpm/tpm0/pcr-sha256/9
	...

	The QEMU TPM emulator device
	----------------------------

	The TPM emulator device uses an external TPM emulator called 'swtpm'
	for sending TPM commands to and receiving responses from. The swtpm
	program must have been started before trying to access it through the
	TPM emulator with QEMU.

	The TPM emulator implements a command channel for transferring TPM
	commands and responses as well as a control channel over which control
	commands can be sent. (see the `SWTPM protocol`_ specification)

	The control channel serves the purpose of resetting, initializing, and
	migrating the TPM state, among other things.

	The swtpm program behaves like a hardware TPM and therefore needs to
	be initialized by the firmware running inside the QEMU virtual
	machine. One necessary step for initializing the device is to send
	the TPM_Startup command to it. SeaBIOS, for example, has been
	instrumented to initialize a TPM 1.2 or TPM 2 device using this
	command.

	QEMU files related to the TPM emulator device:
	- ``backends/tpm/tpm_emulator.c``
	- ``backends/tpm/tpm_util.c``
	- ``include/sysemu/tpm_util.h``

	The following commands start the swtpm with a UnixIO control channel over
	a socket interface. They do not need to be run as root.

	.. code-block:: console

	mkdir /tmp/mytpm1
	swtpm socket --tpmstate dir=/tmp/mytpm1 \
	--ctrl type=unixio,path=/tmp/mytpm1/swtpm-sock \
	--tpm2 \
	--log level=20

	Command line to start QEMU with the TPM emulator device communicating
	with the swtpm (x86):

	.. code-block:: console

	qemu-system-x86_64 -display sdl -accel kvm \
	-m 1024 -boot d -bios bios-256k.bin -boot menu=on \
	-chardev socket,id=chrtpm,path=/tmp/mytpm1/swtpm-sock \
	-tpmdev emulator,id=tpm0,chardev=chrtpm \
	-device tpm-tis,tpmdev=tpm0 test.img

	In case a pSeries machine is emulated, use the following command line:

	.. code-block:: console

	qemu-system-ppc64 -display sdl -machine pseries,accel=kvm \
	-m 1024 -bios slof.bin -boot menu=on \
	-nodefaults -device VGA -device pci-ohci -device usb-kbd \
	-chardev socket,id=chrtpm,path=/tmp/mytpm1/swtpm-sock \
	-tpmdev emulator,id=tpm0,chardev=chrtpm \
	-device tpm-spapr,tpmdev=tpm0 \
	-device spapr-vscsi,id=scsi0,reg=0x00002000 \
	-device virtio-blk-pci,scsi=off,bus=pci.0,addr=0x3,drive=drive-virtio-disk0,id=virtio-disk0 \
	-drive file=test.img,format=raw,if=none,id=drive-virtio-disk0

	In case an Arm virt machine is emulated, use the following command line:

	.. code-block:: console

	qemu-system-aarch64 -machine virt,gic-version=3,accel=kvm \
	-cpu host -m 4G \
	-nographic -no-acpi \
	-chardev socket,id=chrtpm,path=/tmp/mytpm1/swtpm-sock \
	-tpmdev emulator,id=tpm0,chardev=chrtpm \
	-device tpm-tis-device,tpmdev=tpm0 \
	-device virtio-blk-pci,drive=drv0 \
	-drive format=qcow2,file=hda.qcow2,if=none,id=drv0 \
	-drive if=pflash,format=raw,file=flash0.img,readonly=on \
	-drive if=pflash,format=raw,file=flash1.img

	In case a ast2600-evb bmc machine is emulated and you want to use a TPM device
	attached to I2C bus, use the following command line:

	.. code-block:: console

	qemu-system-arm -M ast2600-evb -nographic \
	-kernel arch/arm/boot/zImage \
	-dtb arch/arm/boot/dts/aspeed-ast2600-evb.dtb \
	-initrd rootfs.cpio \
	-chardev socket,id=chrtpm,path=/tmp/mytpm1/swtpm-sock \
	-tpmdev emulator,id=tpm0,chardev=chrtpm \
	-device tpm-tis-i2c,tpmdev=tpm0,bus=aspeed.i2c.bus.12,address=0x2e

	For testing, use this command to load the driver to the correct address

	echo tpm_tis_i2c 0x2e > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-12/new_device

	In case SeaBIOS is used as firmware, it should show the TPM menu item
	after entering the menu with 'ESC'.

	.. code-block:: console

	Select boot device:
	1. DVD/CD [ata1-0: QEMU DVD-ROM ATAPI-4 DVD/CD]
	[...]
	5. Legacy option rom

	t. TPM Configuration

	The following commands should result in similar output inside the VM
	with a Linux kernel that either has the TPM TIS driver built-in or
	available as a module:

	.. code-block:: console

	# dmesg \| grep -i tpm
	[ 0.012560] ACPI: TPM2 0x000000000BFFD1900 00004C (v04 BOCHS \

	crw-rw----. 1 tss rss 253, 65536 Sep 6 12:36 /dev/tpmrm0

	Starting with Linux 5.12 there are PCR entries for TPM 2 in sysfs:
	# find /sys/devices/ -type f \| grep pcr-sha

	Migration with the TPM emulator
	===============================

	The TPM emulator supports the following types of virtual machine
	migration:

	- VM save / restore (migration into a file)
	- Network migration
	- Snapshotting (migration into storage like QoW2 or QED)

	The following command sequences can be used to test VM save / restore.

	In a 1st terminal start an instance of a swtpm using the following command:

	.. code-block:: console

	mkdir /tmp/mytpm1
	swtpm socket --tpmstate dir=/tmp/mytpm1 \
	--ctrl type=unixio,path=/tmp/mytpm1/swtpm-sock \
	--tpm2 \
	--log level=20

	In a 2nd terminal start the VM:

	.. code-block:: console

	qemu-system-x86_64 -display sdl -accel kvm \
	-m 1024 -boot d -bios bios-256k.bin -boot menu=on \
	-chardev socket,id=chrtpm,path=/tmp/mytpm1/swtpm-sock \
	-tpmdev emulator,id=tpm0,chardev=chrtpm \
	-device tpm-tis,tpmdev=tpm0 \
	-monitor stdio \
	test.img

	Verify that the attached TPM is working as expected using applications
	inside the VM.

	To store the state of the VM use the following command in the QEMU
	monitor in the 2nd terminal:

	.. code-block:: console

	(qemu) migrate "exec:cat > testvm.bin"
	(qemu) quit

	At this point a file called ``testvm.bin`` should exists and the swtpm
	and QEMU processes should have ended.

	To test 'VM restore' you have to start the swtpm with the same
	parameters as before. If previously a TPM 2 [--tpm2] was saved, --tpm2
	must now be passed again on the command line.

	In the 1st terminal restart the swtpm with the same command line as
	before:

	.. code-block:: console

	swtpm socket --tpmstate dir=/tmp/mytpm1 \
	--ctrl type=unixio,path=/tmp/mytpm1/swtpm-sock \
	--log level=20 --tpm2

	In the 2nd terminal restore the state of the VM using the additional
	'-incoming' option.

	.. code-block:: console

	qemu-system-x86_64 -display sdl -accel kvm \
	-m 1024 -boot d -bios bios-256k.bin -boot menu=on \
	-chardev socket,id=chrtpm,path=/tmp/mytpm1/swtpm-sock \
	-tpmdev emulator,id=tpm0,chardev=chrtpm \
	-device tpm-tis,tpmdev=tpm0 \
	-incoming "exec:cat < testvm.bin" \
	test.img

	Troubleshooting migration
	-------------------------

	There are several reasons why migration may fail. In case of problems,
	please ensure that the command lines adhere to the following rules
	and, if possible, that identical versions of QEMU and swtpm are used
	at all times.

	VM save and restore:

	- QEMU command line parameters should be identical apart from the
	'-incoming' option on VM restore

	- swtpm command line parameters should be identical

	VM migration to 'localhost':

	- QEMU command line parameters should be identical apart from the
	'-incoming' option on the destination side

	- swtpm command line parameters should point to two different
	directories on the source and destination swtpm (--tpmstate dir=...)
	(especially if different versions of libtpms were to be used on the
	same machine).

	VM migration across the network:

	- QEMU command line parameters should be identical apart from the
	'-incoming' option on the destination side

	- swtpm command line parameters should be identical

	VM Snapshotting:
	- QEMU command line parameters should be identical

	- swtpm command line parameters should be identical


	Besides that, migration failure reasons on the swtpm level may include
	the following:

	- the versions of the swtpm on the source and destination sides are
	incompatible

	- downgrading of TPM state may not be supported

	- the source and destination libtpms were compiled with different
	compile-time options and the destination side refuses to accept the
	state

	- different migration keys are used on the source and destination side
	and the destination side cannot decrypt the migrated state
	(swtpm ... --migration-key ... )
