> And I just can't see how any security measure which requires hardware can come to Linux desktop.

Why? TPM works just fine. Secure Boot is perfectly usable on most OSes. Hell, even fprintd supports biometric authentication if you're a weirdo. Nothing inherently stops this stuff from being made, certainly not the kernel.

All hardware-based security measures will probably never be supported by Linux, but if your benchmark for disbelief is "any" then boy have I got a boat to sell you!
