Thread-topic: [Xense-devel] questions about isolation model and GVTPM

The VTPM core utilizes an open source vtpm emulator to provide the TPM functionality. This emulator has recently been updated to provide AIK support. I am in the process now of updating our patches for the new version. Later today I should be releasing the patch, enabling the creation of vAIKs.

 

Thanks for your interest,

-Vinnie Scarlata

Hi Reiner,

 

In this research paper you’re talking about creating AIKs for VMs. As far as I saw in the current Xen(-unstable) versions, the vTPMs don’t support AIK creation yet. So how is it possible then to provide AIK mechanisms to my VMs?

Hi Huang,

we released today an IBM research report offering more information about our vTPM work. You can find it at
http://domino.research.ibm.com/library/cyberdig.nsf/1e4115aea78b6e7c85256b360066f0d4/a0163fff5b1a61fe85257178004eee39?OpenDocument&Highlight=0,RC23879

or alternatively search for RC23879 in
