[svsm-devel] SVSM Development Call April 3rd, 2024

Hi Jorg
Probably you already notice that I have raised the question on vTPM interface in coconut-svsm.

I have explained how we did the POC in a secure way for TD-partitioning with TPM CRB buffer.
Jeremi Piotrowski also explained the mechanism to expose vTPM through TPM CRB MMIO.
In Intel, we still don't understand why SVSM must use a specific vTPM protocol, but not use TCG defined TPM2 CRB buffer directly.

Unfortunately, it is hard for me to use "Google Meet", and probably I am not able to join.
If possible, I hope we can continue the vTPM interface discussion in email before we make decision.

Thank you
Yao, Jiewen
