I suppose this is doable, but for what I know, the effort is
consequent. TPM 2.0 are not compatible at all with TPM 1.x , the
packets exchanged at TPM level are completely different. Hence, I
think there is almost nothing that we can take from the TPM 1.x
implementation already existing in QEMU.
I am certain we all would benefit such a contribution, however I'm
not sure I could handle that anytime soon.
About the series, I think it would be better that I change a macro name
("STRINGIFY", which is wrongly named), I will send a v2 soon, can you
tell me its status otherwise?
Thank you,
Miquèl
