Description
Hello.
I'm thinking about to try to implement two tools:
* A tool to calculate expected [PCR0](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trusted_Execution_Technology#Chain_of_trust) value of a binary.
* A tool to compare measurements between two binaries (to explain which bits causes the difference).
And it seems right to me to implement it as part of this project "fiano". I suppose these tools should be implemented as:
* `github.com/linuxboot/fiano/cmds/pcr0sum`
* and `github.com/linuxboot/fiano/cmds/pcr0diff`
So the question is: would you agree to merge such code into "fiano" (after codereview&fixes of course)? :)
Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
Start by reviewing the proposal for cmds/pcr0sum and cmds/pcr0diff and checking the existing fiano command structure before seeking maintainer confirmation. Done would require an agreed scope for calculating PCR0 values and explaining binary measurement differences, followed by reviewed implementations of both tools.
