tpm2-tss question
by Yasuhiro Hosoda
MY name is Yasuhiro Hosoda.
I am developing a program using TSS1.0(Nov１．2016).
I encountered a problem with PolicySecret error 0x98e and need help.
My program uses tpmtest.cpp as a base of development.
The situation is as follows:
1 Create TPM Keys like this.
EK
｜--------
｜ |
MK AK
｜
SK
2 Execute PolicySecret twice using HMAC session. At first, it ends
without error. Then it ends with 0x98e
For clarification, I print out the values of Virtual Handle and Real Handle.
The value of Virtual/Real Handles differ at 2nd excution of the command.
(See NO 25/26 Below)
I understand that the resource manager assigns Virtual Handle and my
program calculates HMAC using that handles.
On the other hand, TPM may calculate HMAC using Real Handle.
That is my hypothesis.
Any suggestion about the usage of Session Handle?

TPM2TSS engine for OpenSSL
by Fuchs, Andreas
Hi all,
I just wanted to announce that we pushed a new crypto engine for OpenSSL using the tpm2-tss software stack.
It is licensed under the BSD 3-clause license.
It currently includes RSA sign, RSA decrypt and ECDSA with TPM generated keys.
It uses ESAPI/ESYS (so it's a good usage example) and thus relies on the 2.0 series of tpm2-tss.
I'd like to see some testing and bug reports if you don't mind.
You can find the project here: https://github.com/tpm2-software/tpm2-tss-engine
Big thanks to Infineon for sponsoring this work !
Best regards,
Andreas Fuchs

tools: tcti init allocation route failed for library "tabrmd"
by Scheie, Peter M
I'm trying to get the tools working with the emulator, on a CentOS 7 VM. I've got tss 2.0.0, abrmd 2.0.0, tools 3.1.0, and the IBM emulator 1119. Everything compiles and installs okay, the emulator is running, I start abrmd with 'sudo -u tss /tmp/tpm2/sbin/tpm2-abrmd --tcti=libtss2-tcti-mssim.s' and the emulator says 'Client accepted'. However, when I then run, say, tpm2_pcrlist, I get this error:
WARNING: Failed to create connection with service: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Message recipient disconnected from message bus without replying
ERROR: tcti init allocation routine failed for library: "tabrmd" options: "(null)"
ERROR: Could not load tcti, got: "tabrmd"
And then abrmd crashes, while the emulator reports 'read() error. Error is 2 No such file or directory'.
Suggestions?

Choosing PCR banks for swtpm's TPM 2
by Stefan Berger
Hi!
I am sending this email to solicit input on the choice of the PCR
banks to enable for swtpm's TPM 2. I have currently enabled 4 PCR banks
for SHA{1,256,384,512}. The downside of this is that running the TPM 2
with so many PCR banks has a performance impact when the Linux integrity
measurement architecture is used and has to extend measurements into all
PCR banks, which Linux does already.
TPM 2 has the PCR_Allocate() command for a user to select the PCR banks
to use. This command allows to make some PCR banks invisible. The change
has to be done through the firmware and has the downside that the TPM2
does not support TPM2_Shutdown(SU_STATE) after this command was used.
This prevents suspend/resume from working properly. So, it seems that
one shouldn't have to use this command, which in turn means the number
of PCR banks should be small.
Another complication with the swtpm is the upgrade path. Suspended VMs
will expect that the PCR banks that were available before the suspend
will be available after the resume and a possible swtpm upgrade. This in
turn means that the PCR banks should be chosen now and we'll have to
stick with them.
That said, my suggestion would be to enable only PCR banks for SHA256
for 'now' and SHA512 for the future. Having two PCR banks should enable
decent performance. If someone wants to have better performance he will
have to go through the firmware to select the PCR banks at the expense
of loosing suspend/resume support.
The change of PCR banks for the current 4 PCR banks will break the state
of all swtpms.
If you have suggestions, please let me know.
Regards,
Stefan

What is the exact meaning of "parameters" in cpHash?
by Tianyu Qi
Hi,
I am writing implementation of TPM2_Load. When writing cpHash in computing HMAC, I saw cpHash description in TPM-Rev-2.0-Part-1-Architecture-01.38 mentioned there is a "parameters" parameter at last, which represents remaining command parameters. Since the cpHash will use commandCode as the first parameter, does this "parameters" means every parameter in the command? For example, in TPM2_Load, I need to add tag, commandSize, parentHandle, inPublic and inPrivate? If so, should I add the authorization structure after parentHandle?
Regards and thanks,
Tianyu Qi

The state would be rejected since they are incompatible.

Like I said, during swtpm_setup TPM 2 manufacturing the set of PCR banks
would be chosen and that set would be used by that TPM 2 from then on.
Though this flexibility is not supported by the code today.

For now I think an initial set of banks to go with would be appropriate.

Yes, the user would choose PCR banks or libvirt probes swtpm_setup
version/command line options and selects a reasonable set for the hash
algorithms recommended at that time.

The set of PCR banks a future TPM 2 would be 'manufactured with' would
be determined by parameters to swtpm_setup. That's when the TPM2 is
'manufactured' and the certificates are created and written into its
NVRAM locations. QEMU is not talking to the TPM 2 at this point. So it
would be parameters passed from libvirt to swtpm_setup that determine
the set of PCR banks. swtpm itself would get those supplied via command
line options when invoked by swtpm_setup. If one was to skip over the
swtpm_setup step, then why not use the swtpm command line options that
need to be there for swtpm_setup support. Though I think few people will
use it like that. I would not extend the protocol for this purpose.

You mean a machine type like q35? I am not sure how it would be tied
into QEMU since the swtpm command line options are chosen more or less
independently of the ones from QEMU.
