[PATCH] tpm: Support for Infineon TPM
This patch provides a new device driver for the Infineon SLD 9630 TT Trusted Platform Module (TPM 1.1b) [1] which is embedded on Intel- mainboards or in HP/ Fujitsu-Siemens / Toshiba-Notebooks. A nearly complete list where this module is integrated in can be found in [2]. This kernel module acts as a communication gateway between the linux kernel and the hardware chip and fits the TPM-specific interfaces created by IBM in drivers/char/tpm/tpm.h Further information about this module and a list of succesfully tested and therefore supported hardware can be found at our project page [3].
