Yes, sent in more reports of a working AEM installation.
And if you won't install and configure it, only report if a TPM module
is present.
We have no information on most reports containing a blank background.

Done. Is the problem with the tboot-induced memory allocation still there?

From the README:
# find /sys/devices -name pcrs
# cat <path_to_pcrs>
And another value information comes from logs.
[dom0]$ sudo systemctl start tcsd
[dom0]$ sudo systemctl status tcsd
tcsd.service - TCF Core Services Daemon
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/tcsd.service; disabled)
Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since $DATE
Process: 1234 ExecStart=/sbin/tcsd (code=exited, status=137)
$DATE dom0 systemd[1]: Starting TCG Core Services Daemon....
$DATE dom0 systemd[1]: tcsd.service: control process exited,

$DATE dom0 systemd[1]: Failed to start TCG Core Services Daemon.
$DATE dom0 systemd[1]: Unit tcsd.service entered failed state.
or
[dom0]$ sudo journalctl -xn
and report lines with tcsd like this one:
$DATE dom0 tcsd[1234]: TCSD TDDL[1234]: TrouSerS ERROR: Could not find
a device to open!
$DATE dom0 systemd[1]: tcsd.service: control process exited,
code=exited status=137
$DATE dom0 systemd[1]: Failed to start TCG Core Services Daemon.
$DATE dom0 systemd[1]: Unit tcsd.service entered failed state.
This are result with no TPM installed.
