NAME
tpm2_nvsetbits(1) - Bitwise OR bits into a Non-Volatile (NV).
SYNOPSIS
tpm2_nvsetbits [OPTIONS] [ARGUMENT]
DESCRIPTION
tpm2_nvsetbits(1) - Bitwise OR bits into a Non-Volatile (NV). The NV index must be of type "bits" which is specified via the "nt" field when creating the NV space with tpm2_nvdefine(1). The index can be specified as raw handle or an offset value to the NV handle range "TPM2_HR_NV_INDEX".
OPTIONS
-
-C, --hierarchy=OBJECT:
Specifies the hierarchy used to authorize. Supported options are: * o for TPM_RH_OWNER * p for TPM_RH_PLATFORM *
<num>where a hierarchy handle or nv-index may be used.When -C isn't explicitly passed the index handle will be used to authorize against the index. The index auth value is set via the -p option to tpm2_nvdefine(1).
-
-P, --auth=AUTH:
Specifies the authorization value for the hierarchy.
-
-i, --bits=BITS:
Specifies the bit value as a number to bitwise OR into the current value of the NV index.
-
--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 commonly termed as rpHash.
-
-S, --session=FILE:
The session created using tpm2_startauthsession. This can be used to 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.
-
ARGUMENT the command line argument specifies the NV index or offset number.
