Hi,

I tried to install the vTPM in Xen-4.1.0 + Dom0 kernel 2.6.18.8 + DomU kernel 2.6.18.8. The device is TPM emulator.
However, I=C2=A0 encountered several problems.

1. In DomU, I run "modprobe tpm_xenu" successfully. But it doesn't creates the /dev/tpm0 device as our had expected. So, the trousers cannot be started. An old thread in Xen mail-list can do this,(http://old-list-a= rchives.xen.org/xense-devel/2006-12/msg00002.html) but it helps little to me.
Is there any problem with my vTPM front driver? The tpm related modules and other info in DomU is list here.

Any relevant output in dmesg? Also does your domu config file have a vtpm device specified?
When I run "insmod tpm_xenu.ko" at the first time in DomU, there is no=C2=A0special message in dmesg except for this "xen_tpm_fr: Initialising the vTPM=C2=A0drive= r."

Then, I reload the tpm_xenu module after removing it using "rmmod tpm_xenu.ko -f". I=C2=A0get the following message in dmesg.
...

In the DomUconfig file, I use vtpm =3D ['backend=3D0'].

But there is no vtpm device in Dom0 and DomU. See the following info.
The domU is PVM correct? You can also try just compiling in tpm_xenu instead of using it as a module.
Yes, it's DomU.

Now, I try vTPM in Xen-4.0.2, Dom0 and DomU are still with kernel 2.6.18.8. I can get the device /dev/tpm0 in DomU after modprobe tpm_xenu.

(Perhaps this problem has something to do with the hardware and the Xen version)

However, When I run tcsd in DomU, there is an error:

root@ubuntu:~/vtpm/trousers-0.= 3.4/src/tcsd# tcsd -f

TCSD resetting mode of /usr/local/var/lib/tpm from 40755 to: 700

=

Is this because vtpm_managerd is not running in Dom0 or physical TPM does not work well in Dom0?

What does the output of the vtpm say? You have to have the manager running before you start the domU otherwise it wont work.

=C2=A0

Dom0:

[root@localhost fc8_new]# ls /sys/devices/xen-backend/

console-3-0 =C2=A0power =C2=A0uevent =C2=A0v= bd-3-2049 =C2=A0vfb-3-0 =C2=A0vif-3-0 =C2=A0vkbd-3-0

DomU:

[root@gavin-pv tpm]# ls /sys/devices/xen
power =C2=A0uevent =C2=A0vbd-2049 =C2=A0vfb-= 0 =C2=A0vif-0 =C2=A0vkbd-0

=C2=A0

2. In Dom0, I run "modprobe tpmd_dev" and "modprobe tpmbk" also successfully and I can get the devices /dev/tpm, /dev/tpm0, and /dev/vtpm. However, I cannot start the tpm emulator (# ./tpmd -f clear pvm 1) and vtpm manager (# vtpm_managerd). The related info and output error from Dom0 is also list here.

So you want to use the TPM emulator on dom0 instead of a physical TPM?

Yes, I try to use TPM emulator right now.
In fact, there is a physical TPM chip in my laptop. But I'm not sure how to make it work in fedora8. So, when the vTPM works well on emulator, I will try to abandon the emulator and use the physical TPM.

In that case you might want to make sure=C2=A0 the TPM is disabled in the BIOS if you want to use the emulator. Your dom0 kernel might have tpm drivers built in which could cause a possible conflict with the emulator.

Using the tpm emulator in dom0 has its own collection of issues. You might want to get the physical tpm working first and then play with vtpms. We used TPM successfully on Fedora 8.

Try this:
Reboot your machine and get into the bios. Clear the TPM and then activiate it. You might not have that option to clear if its disabled, in that case just activiate it. In fedora install trousers and tpm_tools. Start tcsd and try tpm_version or some other command to ensure your TPM is working. If not, make sure all of the TPM drivers are either compiled into the kernel or loaded as modules.

Now, I try to use physical TPM directly instead of an emulator. I try to make the physical TPM work firstly. I did=C2=A0what you suggested above, but I still encountered some= problems.

The TPM relevant modules in Dom0 are loaded like this.

modprobe tpm_bios

modprobe=C2=A0tpm

modprobe=C2=A0tpm_tis force=3D1

Then, I got the /dev/tpm0.

However, I cannot start tcsd and=C2=A0vtpm_managerd=C2=A0in = Dom0. The output is as the following.

[root@localhost Xen]# tcsd -f

I searched in google for a while, but I still cannot resolve it.=C2=A0

Do you have any suggestions=C2=A0on these problems? Thanks i= n advance.

You can't run tcsd and vtpm manager at the same time. Only use tcsd to test if your tpm if working and then kill the process and disable it from starting on boot (chkconfig tcsd off). Make sure tcsd is not already running in the background before you try running it yourself (ps -ef | grep tcsd). If you try 2 instances of tcsd it will fail.

=C2=A0
=C2=A0

= I see you listed /dev/tpm and /dev/tpm0. I believe the old manager is hard coded to use the second one. Is tpmd creating both?

Yes. When modprobe the tpmd_dev module, these two devices are created.

Thanks again.

Keep in mind that the old vTPM system is deprecated and I can only provide limited support. If you can't get it to work I would suggest pulling the latest xen-unstable and my latest patch set on here and trying to use that.
Well, it's very nice. I think maybe I need to try it later.
