<para>The different sets of variables can be set up under

</para>
<para>Supported Secure Boot variables are one database for authorized images, one for the key
exchange key (KEK) and one for the platform key (PK). For more information, refer to the
<ulink url="https://uefi.org/specifications">UEFI specification</ulink>, under Secure Boot and Driver
Signing. Another resource that describe the interplay of the different variables is the

EDK2 documentation</ulink>.</para>
<para>A complete set of UEFI variable includes <filename>db.auth</filename>, <filename>KEK.auth</filename>
and <filename>PK.auth</filename>. Note that these files need to be authenticated UEFI variables. See

<para>This feature is considered dangerous because even if all the required files are signed with the
keys being loaded, some files necessary for the system to function properly still won't be. This
is especially the case with Option ROMs (e.g. for storage controllers or graphics cards). See

<listitem><para>Caveat: This feature is experimental, and is likely to be changed (or removed in its
current form) in a future version of systemd.</para>
<para>Work around BitLocker requiring a recovery key when the boot loader was
updated (disabled by default).</para>
<para>Try to detect BitLocker encrypted drives along with an active TPM. If both are found and
Windows Boot Manager is selected in the boot menu, set the <literal>BootNext</literal> EFI variable
and restart the system. The firmware will then start Windows Boot Manager directly, leaving the TPM
PCRs in expected states so that Windows can unseal the encryption key. This allows
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-boot</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> to
be updated without having to provide the recovery key for BitLocker drive unlocking.</para>
<para>Note that the PCRs that Windows uses can be configured with the
<literal>Configure TPM platform validation profile for native UEFI firmware configurations</literal>
group policy under <literal>Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\BitLocker Drive Encryption</literal>.
When Secure Boot is enabled, changing this to PCRs <literal>0,2,7,11</literal> should be safe.
The TPM key protector needs to be removed and then added back for the PCRs on an already
encrypted drive to change. If PCR 4 is not measured, this setting can be disabled to speed
up booting into Windows.</para>
