tss2(1)

tss21

A single small executable that combines the various tpm2-tools much like a busybox that provides a fairly complete environment for any small or embedded system.

Usage

tss2 [OPTIONS] [ARGUMENTS]

Overview

This manual page documents briefly the tss2 command.

This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

tss2 - To ease installation of tpm2-tools in initrd or embedded systems where size-optimization and limited resources are important, it is convenient to have a single executable that can dispatch the various TSS2 functionalities specified by the argument which is one of the available tool names.

The options and arguments that follow are either the common options or those specific to the tool name.

It is important to note that individual tools with prefix tss2_ can still be invoked, however, they are now soft-linked to this tpm2 executable. And so unlike BusyBox, full functionality of the individual tools is available in the executable. For example: tss2_getrandom(1) can alternatively be specified as tss2 getrandom.
