+
+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)

+
+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:
+
+ +-------------+--------+--------+-------------------------------------------+

+ - ``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_backend.h``
+ - ``include/sysemu/tpm_backend_int.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:
+ - ``hw/tpm/tpm_passthrough.c``
+ - ``hw/tpm/tpm_util.c``
+ - ``hw/tpm/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:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ # dmesg | grep -i tpm

+ ...
+ PCR-23: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ...
+
+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:
+ - ``hw/tpm/tpm_emulator.c``
+ - ``hw/tpm/tpm_util.c``
+ - ``hw/tpm/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 \
+ --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 \

+ -drive file=test.img,format=raw,if=none,id=drive-virtio-disk0
+
+In case SeaBIOS is used as firmware, it should show the TPM menu item
+after entering the menu with 'ESC'.

+
+ Select boot device:
+ 1. DVD/CD [ata1-0: QEMU DVD-ROM ATAPI-4 DVD/CD]

+
+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 \
+ --log level=20 --tpm2
+
+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 ... )

-= 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 (future) swtpm backend.

-
-== 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.

-
-== 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. The specification for the control channel can be found here:
-
-https://github.com/stefanberger/swtpm/blob/master/man/man3/swtpm_ioctls.pod
-
-
-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:
- - hw/tpm/tpm_emulator.c
- - hw/tpm/tpm_util.c
- - hw/tpm/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.
-
-mkdir /tmp/mytpm1
-swtpm socket --tpmstate dir=/tmp/mytpm1 \
- --ctrl type=unixio,path=/tmp/mytpm1/swtpm-sock \
- --log level=20

-=== 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:
-
-mkdir /tmp/mytpm1
-swtpm socket --tpmstate dir=/tmp/mytpm1 \
- --ctrl type=unixio,path=/tmp/mytpm1/swtpm-sock \
- --log level=20 --tpm2
-
-In a 2nd terminal start the VM:
-
-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:
-
-(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:
-
-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.
-
-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 ... )
