Adapt the sysfs TPM command cancel path for the TPM driver that does not use a miscdevice anymore since Linux 4.0. Support old and new paths and check their availability.
Add a mockup for the test cases to avoid the testing for availability of the cancel path.
I see you sent a qemu patch for a similar change. What's the benefit of libvirt setting cancel_path if qemu can (and already attempts to)figure it out?
The only benefit is that libvirt is controlling the parameter.
Then IMO we should let qemu handle it and just drop this path handling entirely. If there's ever a need to differentiate from qemu's logic or let the user override this value then we can add it back without much trouble
Forgot about that: SELinux labeling of that file requires it afaik. Stefan
