I found this text in EDK II:
Minimum length(in bytes) of the system preboot TCG event log area(LAML)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
For PC Client Implementation spec up to and including 1.2 the minimum
log size is 64KB. (SecurityPkg/SecurityPkg.dec)
Thank you for your feedback.
I have not checked this.
TCG spec also says "The Log Area Minimum Length for the TCG event log
MUST be at least 64KB." in ACPI chapter.
I will update to set 64KB as default.
Is this the same as the BLOBLISTT_TPM2_TCG_LOG thing? If so, can we
put this in the bloblist? We want to avoid adding code in EFI which is
in U-Boot.
I think bloblist is used for data passing from SPL/TPL to u-boot.
Is your comment saying that the eventlog generated
in u-boot(done in efi_tcg2.c with this patch series) should be appended
into the buffer pointed by BLOBLISTT_TPM2_TCG_LOG blob?
Even in that case the eventlog can't be appended. The TCG eventlog
hould be copied into EFI memory, since the kernel expects to find it
there.
Typically bloblist is relocated by U-Boot. There are lots of tables
that must be passed to linux, including ACPI and SMBIOS. With bloblist
they can all be in one place.
The eventlog must be allocated in EFI memory though.
There is really only one memory in U-Boot. I feel that all stuff that
EFI passes on to linux should be in a single bloblist.
We have should follow existing standards and not invent our own. LInux
is not the only OS booted via U-Boot.
Perhaps we can talk about it in the next call. My point is not about
avoiding standards!
What I am saying is that if we put things in a bloblist, and make that
available to Linux (or other OS) via EFI, things should work, but
Which operating would be aware of your bloblist? Windows, BSD, Haiku?
We want U-Boot to be interchangable with other UEFI firmware like EDK
II. This will only work if we program against the same specs and don't
invent new interfaces.
Best regards
Heinrich
non-EFI people are happy too. See the ACPI stuff for example - we put
all of those bits in a bloblist, which is really just a contiguous
area of memory. It is more convenient for U-Boot than allocating
memory willy nilly. Plus the 'bloblist' command lets you see what is
there.
Anyway I really don't understand all of this well enough to say what
we should do. I am just passing on hints. There is way too much
'separate' EFI code in U-Boot at present and we need to work to reduce
that and hopefully not add more.

Simon
