BitLocker Tpm And Recovery Password tests for AOAC devices with PCR[7]

Article
05/18/2022

All platforms that implement a TPM must ensure invariance of PCRs 7, 11 across power cycles in the absence of changes to the platform's static core root of trust for measurements (SRTM). Attaching a (non-bootable) USB to the platform or attaching the platform to a docking station should not cause changes to the SRTM.

Note

This test restarts the system multiple times to check whether PCRs are consistent.

Additional documentation

Tests in this feature area might have additional documentation, including prerequisites, setup, and troubleshooting information, that can be found in the following topic(s):

Running the test

Before you run the test, complete the test setup as described in the test requirements: WDTF System Fundamentals Testing Prerequisites. Also, check that TPM is on and ready for use by running tpm.msc (the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) Management snap-in). Secure boot should be enabled.

Troubleshooting

For generic troubleshooting of HLK test failures, see Troubleshooting Windows HLK Test Failures.

For troubleshooting information, see Troubleshooting System Fundamentals Testing.

If this test fails, review the test log from Windows Hardware Lab Kit (Windows HLK) Studio.

Make sure you can see fveapi.dll in %systemroot%\system32\.
Check test output directly from command prompt when the test runs or open te.wtl in the HLK Manager.
If a test script fails, check the BitLocker status:
- Manage-bde -status [volume]
Collect BitLocker event logs from event viewer at two locations:
- Filter \Windows logs\System logs by event sources started with BitLocker
- Applications and Services Logs\Microsoft\Windows\BitLocker-API\Management
Run **tpm.msc ** to ensure that the TPM Status is ON and that ownership has been taken.
Check TCG logs
- Collect TCG log (*.txt).
- Compare multiple copies of the TCG log and see whether PCR [0, 2, 4, 11] are consistent across reboot and hibernate.
