How different are these logs to the TPM measurements exported via
securityfs?

So I write a value here and then I see different chunks of log? This
doesn't seem like an optimal interface. What do these logs actually
contain? How do I know which block I should be reading?

Use one of the uuidcmp functions from uuid.h?

Same as for the previous patch - you don't need these.

There's already UUID structures in uuid.h

uuid.h again.
