Hi,

I've come back to something I stopped work on early last November. I was working with the tpm2_tools master branch at the time, and have moved to 3.X to get support for PCR based authorisation with tpm2_nvread/write. With 3.X, tpm2_nvwrite is hanging when trying to write to the tpm device file. Using the code from last year (sorry, I no longer have a record of what revision this was), it was working fine (see log snippet below).

I'm using the 1.x branch of tpm2-tss, and I configure tpm2-tools with '--with-tcti-device --without-tcti-socket'. I've also had to modify Makefile.am to get this combination to build;

--LIBMARSHAL_CFLAGS = \
--    -DALG_ECMQV=1
++#LIBMARSHAL_CFLAGS = \
++#    -DALG_ECMQV=1

Can anyone comment on this? Should I raise a bug on your tracker?

Regards,
Duncan
