There is a STPM backend that can talk to a TPM emulator. However, this backend 
assumes that STPM is running on top Fiasco-UX and talks to the 'tpmd' daemon 
using sockets. In this case, tpmd runs next to Fiasco-UX on the Linux host 
kernel.

We are also porting the TPM emulator such that it can run directly on top of 
L4, but this is work in progress in a very early stage.

Carsten
