For ‘TPM_ORD_DeepQuote’cmd, it looks like a specific TPM 1.2 emulator command, 
instead of TPM physic cmd. I can’t find it in TPM 1.2 spec.
(my TPM Main Part2 TPM Structures is Specification version 1.2/ Level 2 
Revision 116 / 1 March 2011)

Subject: [Xen-devel] vTPM Deep Quote validation

I am trying to validate a Deep Quote request made by domU but I feel that 
something is missing. Right now when a domU requests TPM_ORD_DeepQuote:
1. vTPM:
- unpacks the params: nonce, vTPM PCR selection and physical PCR selection
- packs PCR_INFO_SHORT structure into buf that contains the selected vTPM PCRs
- computes nonce as a SHA1 of: dquot_hdr, nonce, and previous packed buf
- packs: nonce, physical PCR selection
- receives physical pcr data and signature from manager and returns them to DomU
2. vTPM Manager
- unpacks the params: nonce, PCR selection
- execute TPM_Quote with: externalData = nonce
- returns pcr data and signature to vTPM

If domU user wants to validate the signature it has to do the exact process 
that the vtpm and manager did  but the virtual PCR values are not included in 
response, just physical ones.

We can include the vTPM PCRS in response or the manager must perform TPM_Quote 
using the nonce received from domU in order to be able to have a successful 
validation on the client side.
What do you think? Is there something that I am missing ?
