To support the [PC Client RIM Specification](https://trustedcomputinggroup.org/resource/tcg-pc-client-reference-integrity-manifest-specification/) which utilizes the TPM Event Log as a Support RIM type , it was useful to have a tool for inspecting the contents of the [TPM event log](https://github.com/nsacyber/HIRS/wiki/TPM-Event-Logs). A Linux command line tool named "elt" (event log tool) has been created to parse and print human readable output, provide hexidecimal events which can be used as test patterns, and to compare event logs for providing details on what events mis-compared.
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.
Note that a TCG Event Log will only be populated on a given device if the device:
