33.Sh NAME
34.Nm tpm
35.Nd Trusted Platform Module
36.Sh SYNOPSIS
37.Cd "tpm* at isa? iomem 0xfed40000"
38.Cd "tpm* at acpi?"
39.Sh DESCRIPTION
40The
41.Nm
42driver provides support for various Trusted Platform Module (TPM) chips.
43.Pp
44Supported modules:
45.Pp
46.Bl -bullet -compact -offset indent
47.It
48TPM 2.0 chips over ACPI
49.It
50TPM 1.2 chips over ACPI and ISA
51.El
52.Pp
53Note that the supported interface version is TIS1.2 in each case.
54.Pp
55The TPM may need to be enabled in the system's firmware or BIOS, which
56requires a reboot to take effect.
57This is generally beyond the control of
58.Nx .
59Enabling a TPM does not require using trusted boot \(em it can be
60enabled, for example, only for the
61.Xr rnd 4
62entropy source.
