We are running one of the newest Intel NUCs with TPM 2.0 chip (what the vendor is, I haven't been able to figure out). At the moment I am just trying to load the drivers to get it visible to the system, but no dice so far

I have tried Linux Kernels 3.2, 3.16 and 4.2. According to kernelnewbies kernel 4.0 is when TPM 2.0 drivers were introduced.

My current steps to load drivers:

• 
  ls -la /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/char/tpm to list available tpm drivers


• 
  modprobe <items from above>. Plenty of people say that tpm_tis is the only thing they needed, but no dice for me


• Checking /sys/class/tpm on 4.* and /sys/class/misc/on 3.* for tpm0 hardware


• Running tcsd -f just gives me a communication error


• Triple checked the BIOS to see if TPM is enabled. It was actually enabled out of the box which apparently it isn't supposed to be?

Output of ls -la /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/char/tpm:

total 248

Any additional steps / direction / tips would be greatly appreciated.

Update

I managed to get 4.4 kernel installed, it manages to load up drivers (I see tpm0 in /sys/class/tpm/tpm0 now). But running tcsd -f give me the following error:

TCSD TDDL ioctl: (25) Inappropriate ioctl for device

TCSD TDDL Falling back to Read/Write device support.

TCSD TCS ERROR: TCS GetCapability failed with result = 0x1e

Also to make sure that I have the latest version of Trousers I compiled that from source as well, still no dice. One thing I have noticed is that inside tpm0 there is no pcrs file

I Think your tpm is working (check it with dmesg | grep -i tpm) but tpm-tools is only compatible with tpm 1.2 devices (source).

Some new projects exists, may they help us:

• IBM: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ibmtpm20tss/
  


• Intel: https://github.com/01org/TPM2.0-TSS
  


• TSS2 based tpm2-tools: https://github.com/01org/tpm2.0-tools
