Breaking on SEAM Entry

Intercepting the SEAM entry point to start debugging the SEAM root mode where the TDX module resides.

To intercept the SEAM entry point:

  1. Halt the target by clicking the suspend Suspend button in the main Eclipse* toolbar.

  2. In the Breakpoints view, set a platform break of type VMExit_​Seamcall as described in Setting Platform Breaks.

  3. Resume the target by clicking the resume Resume button and wait till the platform break is hit.

Once the debugger has stopped at the VMExit_​Seamcall break, it will be in SEAM Root mode. Updated registers are highlighted in the Registers view.
