💖 tpm2tss-tpm2data_write(3) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the library calls corner of the tpm2-tss-engine manual — yes the page is literally called tpm2tss-tpm2data_write(3) but the function living in it is tpm2tss_ecc_makekey, we don't make the rules, we just read them 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

tpm2tss_ecc_makekey – Make an ECC key object

no cap, that's the whole name section. short. iconic. periodt.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <tpm2tss.h>

EVP_PKEY * tpm2tss_ecc_makekey(TPM2_DATA *tpm2Data);

look at that signature. gorgeous. EVP_PKEY * out front, TPM2_DATA *tpm2Data taking the aux, we love a clean prototype 🫶

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea, bestie: tpm2tss_ecc_makekey takes a TPM2_DATA object — that's the tpm2Data argument right there — and creates a corresponding OpenSSL EVP_PKEY object from it. that's it. that's the whole job. it's giving "glow up your TPM data into an OpenSSL key object" ✨

---

👑 RETURN VALUE 👑

• if everything goes slay: tpm2tss_ecc_makekey() hands you back the pointer to the created EVP_PKEY object. 🎀
• if it does not go slay: you get NULL. 💀

that's the vibe check. pointer or nothing, no in-between.
