👑 EVICTCONTROL — the manual page, but make it make sense

okay bestie, welcome to the evictcontrol(1) page 💖 this is a User Commands page (section 1 of the manual, iykyk), and yes the title is literally EVICTCONTROL in all caps like it's screaming its own name. We love a dramatic queen. 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

evictcontrol — Runs TPM2_EvictControl

Like. That's it. That's the whole name section. Short, sweet, iconic. ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

First thing the page hits you with is:

--version-string=v1045 is not a valid option
not me getting read for filth by a manpage 💀 okay noted, bestie, --version-string=v1045 is not a valid option. We do not do that here.

Then it just says:

evictcontrol

and:

Runs TPM2_EvictControl

so like, the description is lowkey just restating the NAME section. Periodt. 💅

Here's the option rundown — every single one, no skips:

  • -hi — authhandle hierarchy. Takes o or p.
    • o — owner
    • p — platform
  • -ho — object handle
  • -hp — persistent handle
  • -pwda — authorization password (default is empty)
  • -se[0-2] — session handle / attributes (default PWAP)
    • 01 — continue
    • 20 — command decrypt
    • 40 — response encrypt

🌈 DESCRIPTION (yes, again, I'm not kidding) 🌈

fr fr, the page does the whole thing a second time. Copy-paste energy. Main character repeating herself because she knows she ate. 🫶 So here it is again, exactly as it shows up:

First:

--version is not a valid option
bestie. --version is not a valid option either. Noted. Writing it down. 📝

Then:

evictcontrol

Then:

Runs TPM2_EvictControl

And the options, round two:

  • -hi — authhandle hierarchy. Takes o or p.
    • o — owner
    • p — platform
  • -ho — object handle
  • -hp — persistent handle
  • -pwda — authorization password (default is empty)
  • -se[0-2] — session handle / attributes (default PWAP)
    • 01 — continue
    • 20 — command decrypt
    • 40 — response encrypt
