TPM is required and you can run is like this.
mkdir /tmp/mytpm1
swtpm socket --tpmstate dir=/tmp/mytpm1 --ctrl type=unixio,path=/tmp/mytpm1/ctrl --tpm2 --log level=20 --server type=unixio,path=/tmp/mytpm1/data
As tpmplay expect to find ctrl and data sockets in the directory, for now it
is the only format of command that is supported.
To compile and run tpmplay
cc -o tpmplay tpmplay.c -I/usr/local/include
./tpmplay /tmp/mytpm1
