GCP TDX attests failed in RHEL VM

[yuxisun1217]

Describe the bug

Attest GCP TDX VM failed in RHEL-9.6:

# kbs-client --url http://trusteeserver:8080 attest --tee-key-file test/tee_key.pem  > test/attestation_token
[2025-01-21T08:29:18Z WARN  attester::tdx] Read AA Eventlog failed: Os { code: 2, kind: NotFound, message: "No such file or directory" }

Not see such issue in GCP SNP VM.

How to reproduce

Create a RHEL-9.6 TDX VM in GCP:

gcloud compute instances create rhel-96-tdx-client --confidential-compute-type=TDX --machine-type=c3-standard-4 --maintenance-policy=TERMINATE --zone=us-central1-c --image=rhel-guest-image-9-6-20250116-5-x86-64 --image-project=virt-qe

And compile install all-attesters from source code. Then try to attest it:

kbs-client --url http://trusteeserver:8080 attest --tee-key-file test/tee_key.pem  > test/attestation_token

CoCo version information

trustee main branch
RHEL-9.6

Haven't seen this error before. Would you be able to share the Trustee server logs too?

@yuxisun1217 thanks. Are you using the docker-compose setup or the kubernetes deployment for Trustee? I'd be helpful if you could run KBS (and AS if they are separate) using RUST_LOG=debug to get more verbose logs.
