✨ ECCPARAMETERS ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to eccparameters from the User Commands section of the manual — this is a section 1 page, so it's a real little program you can run, not some deep kernel lore. pull up a chair, grab a strawberry 🍓, and let's get into it.

💖 NAME 💖

eccparameters — Runs TPM2_ECC_Parameters

that's it, that's the whole name section, she's concise and she knows it 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so here's where it gets a little chaotic, and honestly? iconic of her. no cap. 🙈

--version-string=v1045 is not a valid option

like... not me finding out the hard way. moving on. 😭

eccparameters

Runs TPM2_ECC_Parameters

  • -cv curve ID — you pick your curve here, and your options are:
    • bnp256
    • nistp256
    • nistp384
    • [-of data file, ECC parameters (default do not save)] — this is the optional one, the little bracketed side quest ✨. if you hand it a data file, it'll put the ECC parameters there. the default is do not save, so if you don't say anything, nothing gets written anywhere. lowkey respectful of your disk space tbh 🫶

and then, because the page said it twice and I am not about to gatekeep a single crumb of information from you, here it is again fr fr:

--version is not a valid option

not a valid option!! say it with me 📣

eccparameters

Runs TPM2_ECC_Parameters

  • -cv curve ID — same deal, bestie:
    • bnp256
    • nistp256
    • nistp384
    • [-of data file, ECC parameters (default do not save)] — again: optional, data file goes here, ECC parameters get written there, and the default is do not save 💀

so yeah. two whole passes of the same energy. she said it once, she said it twice, and the vibe check passed both times. 👑
