Yes, thanks. It sounds like you have to ask the SVSM to certify the EK
separately from asking the TPM for a quote. We can't rely entirely on
the TPM API and avoid a sev-guest device for talking to the SVSM. Or
are you saying the SVSM attestation report will get encoded in the
x.509 EK certificate that the TPM API returns, such as the report is
in a cert extension? I'm less clear on how TPM software would
interpret the Issuer of that cert.
