In order to preserve system integrity across S3, the kernel - provides tboot with a set of memory ranges (kernel - code/data/bss, S3 resume code, and AP trampoline) that tboot - will calculate a MAC (message authentication code) over and then - seal with the TPM. On resume and once the measured environment - has been re-established, tboot will re-calculate the MAC and - verify it against the sealed value.
