h2. Connect to a TPM 2.0 device

In order to connect to a TPM 2.0 hardware or firmware device, the TSS2 software stack developed by Intel is needed. Since the official Ubuntu *tpm2-tss* package is rather obsolete (Version 0.98) because e.g. the TCTI interface to the TPM 2.0 resource manager has changed several times, strongSwan is currently based on a recent version drawn from the TPM2-TSS git repository https://github.com/01org/TPM2.0-TSS. Avoid TCTI interface incompatibilities by also fetching the latest *tpm2-tools* version from https://github.com/01org/tpm2.0-tools as well.

Build and install both the *tpm2-tss* stack and the *tpm2.0-tools*, start the *tpm2-resourcemgr* as a service and try to connect to the TPM 2.0 e.g. by listing the contents of the SHA-1 bank of PCR registers

tpm2_listpcrs -g 0x0004

Bank/Algorithm: TPM_ALG_SHA1(0x0004)
