NAME
     tpm2_nvreadpublic(1) - Display all defined Non-Volatile (NV)s indices.

SYNOPSIS
     tpm2_nvreadpublic [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION
     tpm2_nvreadpublic(1)  -  Display  all defined Non-Volatile (NV)s indices to
     stdout in a YAML format.

     Display metadata for all defined NV indices.  Metadata includes:

     * The size of the defined region.

     * The hash algorithm used to compute the name of the index.

     * The auth policy.

     * The NV attributes as defined in section "NV Attributes".

OPTIONS
     * --cphash=FILE

       File path to record the hash of the command parameters.	This is commonly
       termed as cpHash.  NOTE: When this option is selected, The tool will  not
       actually execute the command, it simply returns a cpHash unless rphash is
       also required.

     * --rphash=FILE

       File  path  to  record the hash of the response parameters.  This is com-
       monly termed as rpHash.

     * -S, --session=POLICY_SESSION:

       Specify an auxiliary session for auditing and or encryption/decryption of
       the parameters.

     * -n, --name=FILE:

       The name of the NV index that must be provided when only calculating  the
       cpHash without actually dispatching the command to the TPM.

COMMON OPTIONS
     This collection of options are common to many programs and provide informa-
     tion that many users may expect.

     * -h,  --help=[man|no-man]:  Display the tools manpage.  By default, it at-
       tempts to invoke the manpager for the tool, however, on failure will out-
       put a short tool summary.  This is the same behavior if the "man"  option
       argument  is  specified, however if explicit "man" is requested, the tool
       will provide errors from man on stderr.	If the "no-man" option if speci-
       fied, or the manpager fails, the short options will be output to stdout.

       To successfully use the manpages feature requires the manpages to be  in-
       stalled or on MANPATH, See man(1) for more details.

     * -v, --version: Display version information for this tool, supported tctis
       and exit.

     * -V,  --verbose: Increase the information that the tool prints to the con-
       sole during its execution.  When using this option the file and line num-
       ber are printed.

     * -Q, --quiet: Silence normal tool output to stdout.

     * -Z, --enable-errata: Enable the application of errata fixups.  Useful  if
       an  errata fixup needs to be applied to commands sent to the TPM.  Defin-
       ing the environment TPM2TOOLS_ENABLE_ERRATA is equivalent.

TCTI Configuration
     The TCTI or "Transmission Interface" is the  communication  mechanism  with
     the TPM.  TCTIs can be changed for communication with TPMs across different
     mediums.

     To control the TCTI, the tools respect:

     1. The command line option -T or --tcti

     2. The environment variable: TPM2TOOLS_TCTI.

     Note: The command line option always overrides the environment variable.

     The current known TCTIs are:

     * tabrmd	   -	  The	   resource	 manager,      called	  tabrmd
       (https://github.com/tpm2-software/tpm2-abrmd).	Note  that  tabrmd   and
       abrmd as a tcti name are synonymous.

     * mssim - Typically used for communicating to the TPM software simulator.

     * device - Used when talking directly to a TPM device file.

     * none  - Do not initalize a connection with the TPM.  Some tools allow for
       off-tpm options and thus support not using a TCTI.   Tools  that  do  not
       support	it  will  error when attempted to be used without a TCTI connec-
       tion.  Does not support ANY options and MUST BE presented  as  the  exact
       text of "none".

     The arguments to either the command line option or the environment variable
     are in the form:

     <tcti-name>:<tcti-option-config>

     Specifying  an empty string for either the <tcti-name> or <tcti-option-con-
     fig> results in the default being used for that portion respectively.

   TCTI Defaults
     When a TCTI is not specified,  the  default  TCTI	is  searched  for  using
     dlopen(3)	semantics.   The  tools will search for tabrmd, device and mssim
     TCTIs IN THAT ORDER and USE THE FIRST ONE FOUND.  You can query  what  TCTI
     will  be  chosen as the default by using the -v option to print the version
     information.  The "default-tcti" key-value pair will indicate which of  the
     aforementioned TCTIs is the default.

   Custom TCTIs
     Any  TCTI	that  implements  the dynamic TCTI interface can be loaded.  The
     tools internally use dlopen(3), and the raw tcti-name value is used for the
     lookup.  Thus, this could be a path to the shared	library,  or  a  library
     name as understood by dlopen(3) semantics.

TCTI OPTIONS
     This  collection  of  options  are used to configure the various known TCTI
     modules available:

     * device: For the device TCTI, the TPM character device file for use by the
       device TCTI can be specified.  The default is /dev/tpm0.

       Example: -T device:/dev/tpm0 or export TPM2TOOLS_TCTI="device:/dev/tpm0"

     * mssim: For the mssim TCTI, the domain name or IP address and port  number
       used  by  the  simulator can be specified.  The default are 127.0.0.1 and
       2321.

       Example:      -T      mssim:host=localhost,port=2321	 or	  export
       TPM2TOOLS_TCTI="mssim:host=localhost,port=2321"

     * abrmd: For the abrmd TCTI, the configuration string format is a series of
       simple  key value pairs separated by a `,' character.  Each key and value
       string are separated by a `=' character.

       * TCTI abrmd supports two keys:

	 1. `bus_name' : The name of the tabrmd service on the bus (a string).

	 2. `bus_type' : The type of the dbus instance	(a  string)  limited  to
	    `session' and `system'.

       Specify	the  tabrmd  tcti name and a config string of bus_name=com.exam-
       ple.FooBar:

	      \--tcti=tabrmd:bus_name=com.example.FooBar

       Specify the default (abrmd) tcti and a config string of bus_type=session:

	      \--tcti:bus_type=session

       NOTE: abrmd and tabrmd are synonymous.

NV Attributes
     NV Attributes are used to control various	properties  of	the  NV  defined
     space.  When specified as an option, either the raw bitfield mask or "nice-
     names"  may  be  used.   The values can be found in Table 204 Part 2 of the
     TPM2.0 specification, which can be found here:

     <https://trustedcomputinggroup.org/wp-content/uploads/TPM-
     Rev-2.0-Part-2-Structures-01.38.pdf>

     Nice names are calculated by taking the name field of table 204 and  remov-
     ing  the prefix TPMA_NV_ and lowercasing the result.  Thus, TPMA_NV_PPWRITE
     becomes ppwrite.  Nice names can be joined using the bitwise or "|" symbol.

     Note that the TPM_NT field is 4 bits wide, and thus can be set via nt= for-
     mat.  For instance, to set  The  fields  TPMA_NV_OWNERREAD,  TPMA_NV_OWNER-
     WRITE, TPMA_NV_POLICYWRITE, and TPMA_NT = 0x2, the argument would be:

     ownerread|ownerwrite|policywrite|nt=0x2

     Additionally,  the  NT  field,  which denotes the type of the NV index, can
     also be specified via friendly names: * ordinary - Ordinary  contains  data
     that is opaque to the TPM that can only be modified using TPM2_NV_Write.  *
     extend  -	Extend	is used similarly to a PCR and can only be modified with
     TPM2_NV_Extend.  Its size is determined by the length of the hash algorithm
     used.  * counter - Counter contains an 8-octet value that is to be used  as
     a	counter  and  can  only  be modified with TPM2_NV_Increment * bits - Bit
     Field contains an 8-octet value to be used as a bit field and can	only  be
     modified  with  TPM2_NV_SetBits.	* pinfail - PIN Fail contains an 8-octet
     pinCount that increments on a PIN authorization failure and a pinLimit.   *
     pinpass  -  PIN  Pass contains an 8-octet pinCount that increments on a PIN
     authorization success and a pinLimit.

     For instance, to  set  The  fields  TPMA_NV_OWNERREAD,  TPMA_NV_OWNERWRITE,
     TPMA_NV_POLICYWRITE, and TPMA_NT = bits, the argument would be:

     ownerread|ownerwrite|policywrite|nt=bits
