I am working on it[1]. This commit has not been merged and is a work in
progress. It is however available in coreboot's gerrit.
So far with it and a recent kernel and the patch mentioned above:
- The linux driver finds the TPM automatically and doesn't require
force=1
- The driver however still require itpm=1 to fully work: without it the
tpm is found, but I wasn't able to read the PCRs.
Since I use a rolling release distribution, the kenrel version I use
tend to change quite fast, I can re-test if needed.
I need to improve the following in my patch:
- The IDs readings obviously need to be fixed.
- I want to make it work without itpm=1 if possible. I'll test with
INTC0102 as it is in the driver in the is_itpm function, and it was
also suggested to me by someone on IRC.
I also still need to investigate more why the itpm workaround is needed.
Does the TPM shipped in such laptops respect the specifications?
Is the wiring bad?
