Package: src:linux
Version: 6.1.20-2~bpo11+1
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: jflf_kernel@gmx.com

Dear Maintainer,

Currently no Debian kernel enables support for TPM hardware RNG. On one of my
systems:

$ uname -a
Linux XXX 6.1.0-0.deb11.7-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian
6.1.20-2~bpo11+1 (2023-04-23) x86_64 GNU/Linux

$ cat /sys/class/tpm/tpm0/device/description
TPM 2.0 Device

$ ls /dev/tpm*
/dev/tpm0  /dev/tpmrm0

$ sudo tpm2_getrandom 16 | xxd -p
7ba65632453b191385a3989485ac80a3

$ grep HW_RANDOM_TPM /boot/config-$(uname -r)
<nothing>

$ find /lib/modules/$(uname -r) -iname \*tpm\*rng\*
<nothing again>

$ ls /dev/hwrng
ls: cannot access '/dev/hwrng': No such file or directory


I have checked the current bookworm and trixie kernel debs, and they don't
include it either. It should be enabled there too.

I manage multiple older amd64 machines that have discrete TPM chips, but no
RDRAND instruction or any other hardware RNG. Enabling support for the TPM RNG
would provide the kernel with additional entropy earlier in the boot process.

Thank you very much!
