This +interface requires ACPI and firmware support. The specification can be found at +the following URL: + +https://trustedcomputinggroup.org/resource/tcg-physical-presence-interface-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 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: + + +----------+--------+--------+-------------------------------------------+ + | Field | Length | Offset | Description | + +----------+--------+--------+-------------------------------------------+ + | func | 0x100 | 0x000 | Firmware sets values for each supported | + | | | | operation.
