| .TH Tss2_Tcti_Mssim_Init 3 "JUNE 2017" Intel "TPM2 Software Stack" |
| .SH NAME |
| Tss2_Tcti_Mssim_Init \- Initialization function for the Microsoft TPM simulator TCTI library. |
| .SH SYNOPSIS |
| .B #include <tcti/tcti_mssim.h> |
| .sp |
| .BI "TSS2_RC Tss2_Tcti_Mssim_Init (TSS2_TCTI_CONTEXT " "*tctiContext" ", size_t " "*contextSize" ", const char " "*conf" ");" |
| .sp |
| The |
| .BR Tss2_Tcti_Mssim_Init () |
| function initializes a TCTI context used to communicate with the Microsoft TPM2 |
| simulator. |
| .SH DESCRIPTION |
| .BR Tss2_Tcti_Mssim_Init () |
| attempts to initialize a caller allocated |
| .I tcti_context |
| of size |
| .I size |
| using caller provided configuration string |
| .I conf |
| \&. Since the |
| .I tcti_context |
| must be a caller allocated buffer, the caller needs to know the buffer size |
| required by the TCTI library. The minimum size of this context can be |
| discovered by providing |
| .BR NULL |
| for the |
| .I tcti_context |
| and a non- |
| .BR NULL |
| .I size |
| parameter. The initialization function will then populate the |
| .I size |
| parameter with the minimum size of the |
| .I tcti_context |
| buffer. The caller must then allocate a buffer of this size (or larger) and |
| call |
| .B Tss2_Tcti_Mssim_Init () |
| again providing the newly allocated |
| .I tcti_context |
| and the size of this context in the |
| .I size |
| parameter. This patterm is common to all TCTI initialization functions. We |
| provide an example of this pattern using the |
| .BR Tss2_Tcti_Mssim_Init () |
| function in the section titled |
| .B EXAMPLE. |
| .sp |
| The |
| .I conf |
| parameter is a C string used to configure the TCTI context. This |
| configuration string is a URI with the IP address and port used to connect |
| to an instance of the Microsoft TPM2 simulator. The URI scheme used is the |
| non-standard |
| .I tcp |
| scheme. If a NULL |
| .I conf |
| string is provided then the default of |
| .I tcp://127.0.0.1:2321/ |
| is used. If the URI provided omits the port component then the default port |
| of 2321 is used. |
| .sp |
| Once initialized, the TCTI context returned exposes the Trusted Computing |
| Group (TCG) defined API for the lowest level communication with the TPM. |
| Using this API the caller can exchange (send / receive) TPM2 command and |
| respons buffers with the Microsoft TPM simulator. In nearly all cases however, |
| the caller will initialize a context using this funnction before passing the |
| context to a higher level API like the System API (SAPI), and then never touch |
| it again. |
| .sp |
| For a more thorough discussion of the TCTI API see the \*(lqTSS System Level |
| API and TPM Command Transmission Interface Specification\*(rq as published by |
| the TCG: |
| \%https://trustedcomputinggroup.org/tss-system-level-api-tpm-command-transmission-interface-specification/ |
| .SH RETURN VALUE |
| A successful call to |
| .BR Tss2_Tcti_Mssim_Init () |
| will return |
| .B TSS2_RC_SUCCESS. |
| An unsuccessful call will produce a response code described in section |
| .B ERRORS. |
| .SH ERRORS |
| .B TSS2_TCTI_RC_BAD_VALUE |
| is returned if both the |
| .I tcti_context |
| and the |
| .I size |
| parameters are NULL, or if the |
| .I config |
| parameter is NULL. |
