tpm2_print(1)		     General Commands Manual		   tpm2_print(1)

NAME
     tpm2_print(1) - Prints TPM data structures

SYNOPSIS
     tpm2_print [OPTIONS] [ARGUMENT or STDIN]

DESCRIPTION
     tpm2_print(1)  -  Decodes a TPM data structure and prints enclosed elements
     to stdout as YAML.  A file path containing a TPM object or a  TSS2  Private
     Key  in  the  PEM format may be specified as the path argument.  Reads from
     stdin if unspecified.

OPTIONS
     * -t, --type:

       Required.  Type of data structure.  The option supports the following ar-
       guments:

       * TPMS_ATTEST

       * TPMS_CONTEXT

       * TPM2B_PUBLIC

       * TPMT_PUBLIC

       * TSSPRIVKEY_OBJ

       * ESYS_TR

     * ARGUMENT the command line argument specifies the path of the TPM data.

     * -f, --format:

       Format selection for the public key output  file.   `tss'  (the	default)
       will  output a binary blob according to the TPM 2.0 Specification.  `pem'
       will output an OpenSSL compatible PEM encoded  public  key.   `der'  will
       output  an OpenSSL compatible DER encoded public key.  `tpmt' will output
       a binary blob of the TPMT_PUBLIC struct referenced by TPM 2.0 specs.

       Public key format.  This  only  works  if  option  --type/-t  is  set  to
       TPM2B_PUBLIC or TPMT_PUBLIC.

Context Object Format
     The  type	of a context object, whether it is a handle or file name, is de-
     termined according to the following logic in-order:

     * If the argument is a file path, then the file is loaded as a restored TPM
       transient object.

     * If the argument is a prefix match on one of:

       * owner: the owner hierarchy

       * platform: the platform hierarchy

       * endorsement: the endorsement hierarchy

       * lockout: the lockout control persistent object

     * If the argument argument can be loaded as a number it will be treat as  a
       handle, e.g. 0x81010013 and used directly._OBJECT_.

Authorization Formatting
     Authorization for use of an object in TPM2.0 can come in 3 different forms:
     1.  Password 2.  HMAC 3.  Sessions

     NOTE: "Authorizations default to the EMPTY PASSWORD when not specified".

   Passwords
     Passwords are interpreted in the following forms below using prefix identi-
     fiers.

     Note:  By	default passwords are assumed to be in the string form when they
     do not have a prefix.

   String
     A string password, specified by prefix "str:" or it's absence  (raw  string
     without prefix) is not interpreted, and is directly used for authorization.

   Examples
	    foobar
	    str:foobar

   Hex-string
     A	hex-string password, specified by prefix "hex:" is converted from a hex-
     idecimal form into a byte array form, thus  allowing  passwords  with  non-
     printable and/or terminal un-friendly characters.

   Example
	    hex:1122334455667788

   File
     A	file based password, specified be prefix "file:" should be the path of a
     file containing the password to be read by the tool or a "-" to use  stdin.
     Storing  passwords  in files prevents information leakage, passwords passed
     as options can be read from the process list or common shell  history  fea-
     tures.

   Examples
	    # to use stdin and be prompted
	    file:-

	    # to use a file from a path
	    file:path/to/password/file

	    # to echo a password via stdin:
	    echo foobar | tpm2_tool -p file:-

	    # to use a bash here-string via stdin:

	    tpm2_tool -p file:- <<< foobar

   Sessions
     When  using  a policy session to authorize the use of an object, prefix the
     option argument with the session keyword.	Then indicate a path to  a  ses-
     sion  file  that was created with tpm2_startauthsession(1).  Optionally, if
     the session requires an auth value to be sent with the session  handle  (eg
     policy  password),  then  append a + and a string as described in the Pass-
     words section.

   Examples
     To use a session context file called session.ctx.

	    session:session.ctx

     To use a session context file called session.ctx AND send the authvalue my-
     password.

	    session:session.ctx+mypassword

     To use a session context file called session.ctx AND send the HEX authvalue
     0x11223344.

	    session:session.ctx+hex:11223344

   PCR Authorizations
     You can satisfy a PCR policy using the "pcr:" prefix and the  PCR	minilan-
     guage.  The PCR minilanguage is as follows: <pcr-spec>=<raw-pcr-file>

     The PCR spec is documented in in the section "PCR bank specifiers".

     The  raw-pcr-file	is  an optional argument that contains the output of the
     raw PCR contents as returned by tpm2_pcrread(1).

     PCR bank specifiers

   Examples
     To satisfy a PCR policy of sha256 on banks 0, 1, 2 and 3  use  a  specifier
     of:

	    pcr:sha256:0,1,2,3

     specifying AUTH.

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.   information
       many users may expect.

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.  the various known TCTI modules.
