NAME

tpm2_nvundefine(1) - Delete a Non-Volatile (NV) index.

SYNOPSIS

tpm2_nvundefine [OPTIONS] [ARGUMENT]

DESCRIPTION

tpm2_nvundefine(1) - Deletes a Non-Volatile (NV) index that was previously defined with tpm2_nvdefine(1). The index is specified as an argument. It can be specified as raw handle or an offset value to the nv handle range "TPM2_HR_NV_INDEX".

The tool is also capable of deleting NV indices with attribute TPMA_NV_POLICY_DELETE, and the tool uses this attribute for the default hierarchy to select when -C is missing. The default value for -C is the "owner" hierarchy when TPMA_NV_POLICY_DELETE is clear and "platform" when TPMA_NV_POLICY_DELETE is set.

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 may be specified.

  • -P, --auth=AUTH:

    Specifies the authorization value for the hierarchy.

  • -S, --session=POLICY_SESSION:

    Specify a policy session to use when the NV index has attribute TPMA_NV_POLICY_DELETE set. This can also be used to specify an auxiliary session for auditing and or encryption/decryption of the parameters. Note:

    1. If TPM2_CC_NV_UndefineSpaceSpecial is invoked then only one additional aux session can be specified. The order of how sessions are specified also matters. First specification of -S is interpreted as the session for satisfying the ADMIN role required for TPM2_CC_NV_UndefineSpaceSpecial.

    2. If TPM2_CC_NV_Undefine is invoked then only two additional aux sessions can be specified.

  • --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, 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.

  • --with-policydelete=NONE

    This must be specified when calculating cpHash with --tcti=none. This is a requirement because there is no way to know if the attribute TPMA_NV_POLICYDELETE has been set from the NV index name alone.

  • -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.
