POLICYPCR(1)
π POLICYPCR π
okay bestie, welcome to the policypcr page from the User Commands section of the manual π
this one's short and sweet and honestly kind of chaotic, so let's get into it β¨
πΈ NAME πΈ
policypcr β runs TPM2_PolicyPCR π«Ά
π DESCRIPTION π
so first thing the page hits you with is this, literally right at the top:
--version-string=v1045 is not a valid option
no cap, that's just what it says π
then it says:
policypcr
runs TPM2_PolicyPCR π
here's the flag rundown, bestie:
-haβ policy session handle-halgβ(sha1, sha256)(defaultsha256)-bmβ pcr mask in hex
like, for example, -bm 10000 is PCR 16, and 000001 is PCR 0 π¦
and then β okay not to be dramatic but β the page does the exact same thing all over again. like, second verse same as the first:
--version is not a valid option
policypcr
runs TPM2_PolicyPCR π
and the flags again, in case you blinked:
-haβ policy session handle-halgβ(sha1, sha256)(defaultsha256)-bmβ pcr mask in hex
for real, -bm 10000 is PCR 16, and 000001 is PCR 0 β
π«Ά friendly heads up: the manual literally lists all of this twice, back to back. not me editing it, that's just the lore. i'm telling you everything it tells you, promise π
π SEE ALSO π
the full documentation for policypcr is maintained as a Texinfo manual π if the info and policypcr programs are properly installed at your site, then this command:

and that's the whole vibe π this page is policypcr from July 2017, filed under User Commands β mwah, iconic, periodt ππ¦π
