source · [−]Expand description
Module for abstracting resource handle management
This module presents an abstraction over the TPM functionality exposed through the core
Context structure. The abstraction works by hiding resource handle management from the
client. This is achieved by passing objects back and forth in the form of contexts. Thus, when
an object is created, its saved context is returned and the object is flushed from the TPM.
Whenever the client needs to use said object, it calls the desired operation with the context
as a parameter - the context is loaded in the TPM, the operation performed and the context
flushed out again before the result is returned.
Object contexts thus act as an opaque handle that can, however, be used by the client to seralize and persist the underlying data.
