Git head of the tpm2-preview branch of libtpms isn't building for me:

tpm2/ExecCommand.c: In function 'ExecuteCommand':
tpm2/ExecCommand.c:434:37: error: 'commandIndex' may be used
uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
     buffer = MemoryGetResponseBuffer(commandIndex);
                                     ^
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

I also think you probably need this patch

Thanks. I fixed this now to make it at least compilable. The more recent 
branch is the tpm2-preview.rev138, which makes that other branch more or 
less obsolete.

OK, with this branch, I can get a mostly successful run of the smoke
tests.  The failure looks to be a dispute over who handles TPM_RC_RETRY

The following now also works after a (forced) updated on the swtpm TPM2 
preview branch:

swtpm chardev --vtpm-proxy --tpmstate dir=/tmp --tpm2
swtpm chardev --vtpm-proxy --tpmstate dir=/tmp

What would it take to get this into the master branch and released, so
those of us who use standard distribution tools can get it?

The problem lies in the code that writes the TPM 2 state in host format 
rather than in Big Endian format, which would make the state portable 
and likely that is the preferred format for QEMU integration. Besides 
that there is some functionality missing for suspending the volatile 
state of the TPM 2.

Yes, but my point is that most people who want to be using tpm2
emulation don't really care about QEMU ... it's a nice thing, sure, but
it's very complex to set up, so it's only going to be the odd
enthusiast that cares about vtpm in QEMU.  Most people simply care
about testing TPM2 code or playing with TPM2 itself and for that, they
don't need  or want virtualization.

Could you not push tpm2 into the release branch with the caveat that
the extremely esoteric BE on LE virtualization case doesn't work yet?
