RE: [Xen-devel] Xen 3.0.5 Second Release Candidate

["Cihula, Joseph" <joseph.cihula@xxxxxxxxx>]

I've updated and re-assigned the bug back to Jan, but for those who are
interested and don't monitor Bugzilla:

I wasn't able to reproduce this with the -unstable tip.  As a BKM for
working with the vTPM system, one should always delete the
/var/vtpm/VTPM and /var/tpm/tpm_emulator-* files before starting any new
tests or debugging a failure.  If using the hardware TPM, then you might
also want to clear it so that the vtpm_manager can take ownership (it
works without this, but it guarantees that the SRK auth matches what the
manager expects).

That said, I did find a bug with failure to initialize a variable, and
I'll bundle that fix in with the 1.1b fix (shortly).
