The tcg_eventlog_tool was created in order to inspect the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) Event Log's contents. This command tool supports the [PC Client RIM Specification](https://trustedcomputinggroup.org/resource/tcg-pc-client-reference-integrity-manifest-specification/), which specifies the use of the TPM Event Log as a Support RIM type. This tool can be used to parse and print human readable output, provide hexadecimal events which can be used as test patterns, and provide details in the case of events failing comparison.
The tcg_eventlog_tool is a command line application that allows a user to inspect the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) Event Log's contents. This command tool supports the [PC Client RIM Specification](https://trustedcomputinggroup.org/resource/tcg-pc-client-reference-integrity-manifest-specification/), which specifies the use of the TPM Event Log as a Support RIM type. This tool can be used to parse and print human readable output, provide hexadecimal events which can be used as test patterns, and provide details in the case of events failing comparison.
Note that a TPM Event Log will only be populated on a given device if the device:
1. Utilizes TCG compliant UEFI Firmware.
