Title: LPC Guard questions
Post by: resonant on December 24, 2020, 11:37:10 am

per this document from crowdsupply about LPC Guard

https://www.crowdsupply.com/raptor-computing-systems/talos-secure-workstation/updates/talos-fpga-functions-and-responsibilities-part-1

is it correct to assume that LPC Guard is present in blackbird and talos ii mainboards?

is LPC Guard implemented in hw/fw, where it is passively applied, or does it need to be implemented in the os?

LPC Guard is a pretty attractive feature, thus my interest.

Although Raptor can confirm, my bet is it's implemented. The way it's described in the update, the kernel wouldn't need to be aware of it.
