If this is the last thing you see, there is likely an error being detected by 
the SINIT ACM module. To understand the cause of the error, take a look at the 
Intel TXT error register. There are many ways of doing this. The following is 
one way.

After the system reboots, boot into regular Linux (no TBoot, no Hypervisor). 
Assuming you installed the full TBoot package, you should have additional 
binaries installed, such as txt-stat and parse_err. Run parse_err and see what 
error code you get. Also, if you downloaded your SINIT ACM as a zip file from 
the Intel website, it should have come with an additional PDF document that 
tells you how to parse the 32-bit error value.

happy debugging,

Safayet

Subject: EXT: Re: [tboot-devel] reset after GETSEC[SENTER] on redhat platforms

Hi,

Whever we use tboot 1.9.4 on platforms such as RHEL 7.3 beta, or CentOS 7.2, 
with Intel TXT enabled in the BIOS, it reboots constantly and the last thing we 
see before the reboot is:


TBOOT: setting MTRRs for acmod: base=0x7bf00000, size=0x20000, num_pages=32
TBOOT: The maximum allowed MTRR range size=256 Pages
TBOOT: executing GETSEC[SENTER]...

In centOS 7.2, if I disable Intel TXT in the BIOS then at least the OS is able 
to boot to completion.


Is this a known issue?
