Just upgraded to Rocky 9.3 and suddenly lost /dev/tpm0 I used it for automatically logging myself into my encrypted ssd. Has anyone else had this experience? and is there any reported error about this elsewhere? I rather not want to clean out the TPM chip just because i upgraded. And do wanna know if this is a bug? or a device problem of some kind. Here is what i got by using dmesg | grep -i tpm

So yeah anyone else experienced this today? and how did you fix it?
Thank you for this, did not think of just googling that error message right away in my head. Will update if i find a solution for this. That being said, still weird it randomly happening.
Yeah it seems not to be unique to Rocky, but perhaps a bug report needs to be opened with RHEL to find out why it stopped working - possibly a regression. Especially if booting the previously installed kernel (which can be chosen from the Grub menu) works perfectly fine.
I see so as i have understood the situation is that for some reason fTPM is either disable or not working on the current kernel 5.14.0-362.8.1.el9_3.x86_64. This seems to be right as the other computer i tested on had a physical TPM 2.0 chip and not a fTPM as my computer use. I might double check if my pc is actually using fTPM but it seems so. And this might be a bug on the current kernel. Well then there is not much for me too do then to wait for an update. Or should i report a bug report on RHEL?
