Subject: [PATCH 06/17] tpm: Use TPM2_NV_ReadPublic to read NV index names
Date: Thu, 8 Oct 2026 06:20:22 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261008132532.1155166-7-matthewg@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261008132532.1155166-1-matthewg@nvidia.com>
tpm2_read_public() is used by tpm_buf_append_name() to find the name of
a handle for HMAC session calculations. It treats NV indices as needing
a lookup, but sends TPM2_ReadPublic, which only accepts objects, so the
lookup fails for any NV index.
Send TPM2_NV_ReadPublic for NV indices instead. Its response has the
same layout of a public area followed by the name, so the existing
parsing works unchanged.
