So, I know some of the story here thanks to Andy Cooper. But the elephant in the room is: > INTEL(R) TRUSTED EXECUTION TECHNOLOGY (TXT) > M: Ning Sun <ning....@intel.com> > L: tboot-de...@lists.sourceforge.net > S: Supported > W: http://tboot.sourceforge.net > T: hg http://tboot.hg.sourceforge.net:8000/hgroot/tboot/tboot > F: Documentation/arch/x86/intel_txt.rst > F: arch/x86/kernel/tboot.c > F: include/linux/tboot.h Linux already supports TXT. Why do we need TrenchBoot? I think I know the answer, but it also needs to be a part of the documentation, changelogs and cover letter. Also, honestly, what do you think we should do with the Linux tboot code? Is everyone going to be moving over to Trenchboot so that Linux support for TXT/tboot can just go away?
