Ok.   Going forward, it sounds like we need to define a new
"boot_aggregate" record.  One that contains a version number and PCR
mask.
Just BTW, there is a TCG standard for a TPM 2.0 PCR mask that works
well.
Sounds good.
There is also a standard for an event log version number.  It is
the first event of a TPM 2.0 event log.  It is strange.
Ok
One useful field, though, is a mapping between the algorithm ID (e.g.,
sha256 is 0x000b) and the digest size (e.g., 32 bytes).  This permits
a parser to parse a log even when it encounters an unknown digest
algorithm.
The template data is prefixed with the template data length.  The
problem is verifying the boot_aggregate, not parsing the log.

thanks,

Mimi
