I've started to make some groundwrok to make Trenchboot feasible to land to mainline kernel i.e. introducing builder/parser pattern in order to decouple physical transmission path from logical protocol shenanigans, translating the system to use mainly stack allocations and stuff like that.
Even tho C work, lot's ideas and inspiration come from my recent Rust work.

dangillmor@mastodon.socialTrump regime now requires press to sign a document agreeing not to obtain or possess "unauthorized" information.
Anyone who agrees to this is not qualified to call himself or herself a journalist.
But I'm betting most Big Journalism orgs will go ahead and sign.

Sometimes lack of skills make one do complex tasks.
I was too lazy to learn how to
1. Package Rust programs to BuildRoot images.
2. Do the necessary fixes [1] and downgrades to get build working.
So as a temporary solution I wrote a TPM emulator :-) It's quite easy task with tpm2-protocol given that it is more like "a socket" than "a client" or "a server" abstraction.
However, now that I've done BuildRoot integration to my kernel testing builds [2], the next logical step is to split some offspring:
1. tpm2-protocol: core crate
2. tpm2sh: client
3. mocktpmd: standalone TPM emulator.
'd' is there so that if I ever want to further split mocktpmd to library and executable my naming conventions will scale ;-)

my shitty buildroot kernel testing environment keeps improving as the years pass like a good wine ;-)

aside from compilation issues with old'ish toolchain the packaging for buildroot is quite nice when it comes to Rust:

awesome, new milestone reached: tpm2sh and tpm2-protocol compile with the Rust toolchain of Buildroot 2025.02.6.
Couple of recursive dependencies needed to be downgraded, and some code tweaks but nothing heavy (phew). I also found that even you set your edition to 2021, the chances are that there is some nested dependency that is allowed to be in edition 2024.

A good exercise for Rust code IMHO in order to get it to the level that actually is fluent in production is to create BuildRoot package for it ;-)
All sorts of minor tweaks have had to done for tpm2sh and tpm2-protocol in order to get them to my kernel testing images.
Or at least a good exercise if planning to target and scale Rust crate to embedded systems (in production).

I've started to support more proactively TrenchBoot efforts because D-RTM despite being a bit rough compared to enclaves, is at least fully open. It also draws me a positive picture about Oracle as a company as it proves to me that they push technologies to upstream that don't only support Oracle's proprietary technologies but also is benefical work for the wider developer ecosystem (unlike e.g., Intel and AMD). It's good cause IMHO plain and simple.

my favorite patches are those that rip of over 100 lines of code :-) https://lore.kernel.org/linux-integrity/20250919112448.2543343-1-jarkko@kernel.org/T/#u

rasn crate is the best thing for custom ASN.1 parsers imho:

I'm planning a new kernel feature based on patch set that I never finished:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-integrity/aMwh95tMxB7sMEzy@kernel.org/
The gist is to harden selected AIKs, and perform signing and quotes through kernel, and filtered out from /dev/tpm0.
They'd be wrapped into keyring asymmetric keys. You can lock-in remote attestation pretty well then with UKI images having signed command-line.

getting hmac session together in tpm2sh:
❯ sudo target/debug/tpm2sh start-session -s hmac
data://utf8,session(handle=0x02000000;nonce=d19da78d903f3c3a2350b857da368ba02eb911bc2dfe307435e0eec9621083bd;attrs=00;key=1abf23e3cb74a40b1b093f5a7fbad330dc0f63c51e415f4523d98122e507a3b0;alg=sha256)
There used to be session:// but I migrated sessions as portion of the policy expression language grammar. Previously I migrated from pcr:// to language constructs.
