UEFI systems provide a boot services protocol for obtaining the TPM event log, but this is unusable after ExitBootServices() is called. Unfortunately ExitBootServices() itself triggers additional TPM events that then can't be obtained using this protocol. The platform provides a mechanism for the OS to obtain these events by recording them to a separate UEFI configuration table which the OS can then map. Unfortunately this table isn't self describing in terms of providing its length, so we need to parse the events inside it to figure out how long it is. Since the table isn't mapped at this point, we need to extend the length calculation function to be able to map the event as it goes along.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
