13Description:	The "active" property prints a '1' if the TPM chip is accepting
14		commands. An inactive TPM chip still contains all the state of
15		an active chip (Storage Root Key, NVRAM, etc), and can be
16		visible to the OS, but will only accept a restricted set of
17		commands. See the TPM Main Specification part 2, Structures,
18		section 17 for more information on which commands are
19		available.

25Description:	The "cancel" property allows you to cancel the currently
26		pending TPM command. Writing any value to cancel will call the
27		TPM vendor specific cancel operation.

30Date:		April 2005
31KernelVersion:	2.6.12
32Contact:	tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
33Description:	The "caps" property contains TPM manufacturer and version info.
34
35		Example output:
36
37		Manufacturer: 0x53544d20
38		TCG version: 1.2
39		Firmware version: 8.16
40
41		Manufacturer is a hex dump of the 4 byte manufacturer info
42		space in a TPM. TCG version shows the TCG TPM spec level that
43		the chip supports. Firmware version is that of the chip and
44		is manufacturer specific.

47Date:		March 2011
48KernelVersion:	3.1
49Contact:	tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
50Description:	The "durations" property shows the 3 vendor-specific values
51		used to wait for a short, medium and long TPM command. All
52		TPM commands are categorized as short, medium or long in
53		execution time, so that the driver doesn't have to wait
54		any longer than necessary before starting to poll for a
55		result.
56
57		Example output:
58
59		3015000 4508000 180995000 [original]
60
61		Here the short, medium and long durations are displayed in
62		usecs. "[original]" indicates that the values are displayed
63		unmodified from when they were queried from the chip.
64		Durations can be modified in the case where a buggy chip
65		reports them in msec instead of usec and they need to be
66		scaled to be displayed in usecs. In this case "[adjusted]"
67		will be displayed in place of "[original]".

71KernelVersion:	2.6.17
72Contact:	tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
73Description:	The "enabled" property prints a '1' if the TPM chip is enabled,
74		meaning that it should be visible to the OS. This property
75		may be visible but produce a '0' after some operation that
76		disables the TPM.

82Description:	The "owned" property produces a '1' if the TPM_TakeOwnership
83		ordinal has been executed successfully in the chip. A '0'
84		indicates that ownership hasn't been taken.

87Date:		April 2005
88KernelVersion:	2.6.12
89Contact:	tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
90Description:	The "pcrs" property will dump the current value of all Platform
91		Configuration Registers in the TPM. Note that since these
92		values may be constantly changing, the output is only valid
93		for a snapshot in time.
94
95		Example output:
96
97		PCR-00: 3A 3F 78 0F 11 A4 B4 99 69 FC AA 80 CD 6E 39 57 C3 3B 22 75

102		...
103
104		The number of PCRs and hex bytes needed to represent a PCR
105		value will vary depending on TPM chip version. For TPM 1.1 and
106		1.2 chips, PCRs represent SHA-1 hashes, which are 20 bytes
107		long. Use the "caps" property to determine TPM version.

110Date:		April 2005
111KernelVersion:	2.6.12
112Contact:	tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
113Description:	The "pubek" property will return the TPM's public endorsement
114		key if possible. If the TPM has had ownership established and
115		is version 1.2, the pubek will not be available without the
116		owner's authorization. Since the TPM driver doesn't store any
117		secrets, it can't authorize its own request for the pubek,
118		making it unaccessible. The public endorsement key is gener-
119		ated at TPM menufacture time and exists for the life of the
120		chip.

165Description:	The "temp_deactivated" property returns a '1' if the chip has
166		been temporarily dectivated, usually until the next power
167		cycle. Whether a warm boot (reboot) will clear a TPM chip
168		from a temp_deactivated state is platform specific.

174Description:	The "timeouts" property shows the 4 vendor-specific values
175		for the TPM's interface spec timeouts. The use of these
176		timeouts is defined by the TPM interface spec that the chip
177		conforms to.
178

180
181		750000 750000 750000 750000 [original]
182
183		The four timeout values are shown in usecs, with a trailing
184		"[original]" or "[adjusted]" depending on whether the values
185		were scaled by the driver to be reported in usec from msecs.
