NAME

tpm2_policycountertimer(1) - Enables policy authorization by evaluating the comparison operation on the TPM parameters time, clock, reset count, restart count and TPM clock safe flag.

SYNOPSIS

tpm2_policycountertimer [OPTIONS] [ARGUMENT]

DESCRIPTION

tpm2_policycountertimer(1) - Enables policy authorization by evaluating the comparison operation on the TPM parameters time, clock, reset count, restart count and TPM clock safe flag. If time/clock, it is input as milliseconds value. The parameter and the value is given as a command line argument as below:

tpm2_policycountertimer -S session.ctx safe
tpm2_policycountertimer -S session.ctx clock=<N ms>
tpm2_policycountertimer -S session.ctx time=<N ms>
tpm2_policycountertimer -S session.ctx resets=<N>
tpm2_policycountertimer -S session.ctx restarts=<N>

By default comparison tests for equality and also by default it tests for time.

OPTIONS

-L, --policy=FILE:

File to save the policy digest.
-S, --session=FILE:

The policy session file generated via the -S option to tpm2_startauthsession or saved off of a previous tool run.
--eq

if value of current time in the TPM = value of specified input time.
--neq

if value of current time in the TPM != value of specified input time.

--sgt

if signed value of current time in the TPM > signed value of specified input time.

--ugt

if unsigned value of current time in the TPM > unsigned value of specified input time.

--slt

if signed value of current time in the TPM < signed value of specified input time.

--ult

if unsigned value of current time in the TPM < unsigned value of specified input time.

--sge

if signed value of current time in the TPM >= signed value of specified input time.

--uge

if unsigned value of current time in the TPM >= unsigned value of specified input time.

--sle

if signed value of current time in the TPM <= unsigned value of specified input time.

--ule

if unsigned value of current time in the TPM <= unsigned value of specified input time.

--bs

if all bits set in value of current time in the TPM are set in value of specified input time.
--bc

if all bits set in value of current time in the TPM are clear in value of specified input time.

EXAMPLES

Create a sealing object with an authorization policy that evaluates only for first minute of TPM restart.

Create the policy and the sealing object

tpm2_startauthsession -S session.ctx

tpm2_policycountertimer -S session.ctx -L policy.countertimer --ult 60000

tpm2_flushcontext session.ctx

tpm2_createprimary -C o -c prim.ctx -Q

echo "SUPERSECRET" | \
tpm2_create -Q -u key.pub -r key.priv -i- -C prim.ctx \
-L policy.countertimer -a "fixedtpm|fixedparent" -c key.ctx

Unsealing should work in the first minute after TPM restart

tpm2_startauthsession -S session.ctx --policy-session

tpm2_policycountertimer -S session.ctx --ult 60000

tpm2_unseal -c key.ctx -p session:session.ctx

tpm2_flushcontext session.ctx

returns
