🎀 NAME 🎀

nvextend — runs TPM2_NV_Extend. That's it, that's the whole assignment bestie 💖 (and yeah, this page lives in the NVEXTEND(1) section of your manual, User Commands energy, July 2017 vintage, iconic honestly)

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so, first thing the page hits you with, no context, no warning, just:

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

😭 not the manpage opening with a rejection. anyway.

nvextend</purl>

Runs TPM2_NV_Extend

and then the options, slay:

  • -ha — NV index handle 🫶
  • -pwdn — password for the NV index (default is empty, so like, nothing, nada)
  • -ic — data string 💅
  • -if — data file 🦋
  • -se[0-2] — session handle / attributes (default PWAP)
    • 01 — continue

and then — plot twist, main character moment — the exact same thing happens AGAIN, but with a different complaint at the top. no cap, this is literally what it says:

--version is not a valid option
