I saw a feature enhancement request go in about supporting the TCG TPM chip in LinuxBIOS. We're interested in helping that effort. Is there anyone leading the charge? Or, by virtue of mentioning it, do I become the defacto lead ;-) ?
The latter ;-)
Are there any thoughts as to how to best measure the LinuxBIOS and FILO portions and extend them into the PCRs?
Haven't yet thought about this. But one question is more interesting for me at the moment -- what early hardware initialization is needed for the setup (if at all)? Is the setup documented somewhere? Is there a standard (for the low-level init, mind you!) or is this completely vendor-dependent?
Does the init have to work before the RAM is initialized, or can it be done after RAM works?
Do we have public datasheets for this stuff? Any datasheets at all?
