From: Stefan Berger <stefanb@linux.ibm.com> Recent extensions of the TPM2 ACPI table added 3 more fields including 12 bytes of start method specific parameters and Log Area Minimum Length (u32) and Log Area Start Address (u64). So, we extend the existing structure with these fields to allow non-UEFI systems to access the TPM2's log. The specification that has the new fields is the following: TCG ACPI Specification Family "1.2" and "2.0" Version 1.2, Revision 8 Adapt all existing table size calculations to use offsetof(struct acpi_table_tpm2, start_method_specific) [where start_method_specific is a newly added field] rather than sizeof(struct acpi_table_tpm2) so that the addition of the new fields does not affect current systems that may not have them.Cc: linux-acpi@vger.kernel.orgquoted
Signed-off-by: Stefan Berger <stefanb@linux.ibm.com>You have this comment: /* Platform-specific data follows */
You mean there 'was this comment'? I actually removed this comment because I didn't know what it meant or what it has to do with 'platform': - - /* Platform-specific data follows */ + u8 start_method_specific[12]; + u32 log_area_minimum_length; + u64 log_area_start_address; Specs: https://trustedcomputinggroup.org/wp-content/uploads/TCG_ACPIGeneralSpecification_v1.20_r8.pdf PDF Page 16 / Doc page 10 bottom. start_method_specific is obviously related to the start_method field. The subsequent two fields are optional and show those 2 filelds we know from the TCPA ACPI table.
Can you elaborate a bit which platform you are speaking of? It is now enabled for everything. /Jarkko
