INTC0102 Intel TPM device found in GM45 chipset is supposed to comply with TCG TPM 1.2 specifications, and thus be taken care of by tpm_tis kernel module. Unfortunately, it does not. After loading this module

modprobe tpm_tis interrupts=0 force=1

and mounting securityfs

mount -t securityfs none /sys/kernel/security

it is possible to read the files

/sys/kernel/security/tpm0/ascii_bios_measurements
/sys/kernel/security/tpm0/binary_bios_measurements

but no further communication with the TPM device seems to be possible.

In recent discussion on tpmdd-devel mailing list Seiji Munetoh suggested a quick fix, and Colin Didier made a patch out of it.
