(I assume s/SMF/SMM/) You are correct to write "as it is currently implemented". My point in my previous email(s) was that QEMU should generate the ACPI payload needed by the OS, for queueing PPI opcodes (i.e. OVMF should install QEMU's AML, *not* the sample AML code in SecurityPkg). In turn the AML from QEMU should queue the PPI opcodes in the custom register block of the TPM device (which is anyway the only NVRAM-emulation possibility under SeaBIOS). Given that the PPI opcodes will henceforth not be stored in a UEFI variable under OVMF either, the SMM requirement in the AML falls away completely. Retrieving the PPI opcodes for processing from the custom MMIO register block of the TPM device, after reboot, as opposed to reading them out of a UEFI variable, will take custom code in OVMF. We'll get there. > Some > menu items in the TPM 2 menu (also TPM 1.2) also require these UEFI > variables of the PPI interface so that UEFI can react on the menu > choices upon re. (I assume s/re/reboot/) In "SecurityPkg/Tcg/Tcg2Config/Tcg2Config.vfr" (which is the "Visual Form Representation" of the dialog we're talking about), I see three variable references. The structures for those are defined in "SecurityPkg/Tcg/Tcg2Config/Tcg2ConfigNvData.h": - TCG2_CONFIGURATION_INFO - TCG2_CONFIGURATION - TCG2_VERSION I think the last two are irrelevant under OVMF / QEMU (fixed version 2 TPM, and ACPI comes from QEMU -- consistent with my other comments for the PEI phase modules). TCG2_CONFIGURATION_INFO looks more complex, so perhaps we'll have to scavenge its handling for OVMF. However, it seems that TCG2_CONFIGURATION_INFO is not needed in the PEI phase. ... Understand this right: I'd be bursting from joy if OVMF had PEI-phase r/o variable access. I got that feature working for QEMU. But all my attempts to upstream the work failed (apparently because I'm not willing to develop a parallel "fake" for Xen -- on Xen, NVRAM/pflash doesn't even exist, so even if the PEI variable service existed on Xen, it would have zero chance to return valid data.)
