2. Errata
2.1

Errata 1

Section 9.4.1 Table 9 contains text which is incorrect. The EV_EVENT_TAG description states it isnot permitted for use by Platform FW. This contradicts section 9.4.2 which requires EV_EVENT_TAG
for a TCG_PCClientTaggedEvent structure. This structure and EV_EVENT_TAG may be used byplatform firmware to measure Legacy Option ROMs.

2.2

Errata 2

Section 9.4.3, in the first paragraph of the normative text, a requirement incorrectly uses the phrase“nul” terminator. Per the Terms and Definitions for this specification, this should be interpreted as“NUL” terminator.

2.3

Errata 3

Section 9.4.5.1 Table 15, the description for the TCG_Efi_SpecIdEvent Signature “The NULterminated ASCII string “SpecIDEvent03”” does not match the provided hexadecimal representation in
the same description. This string text is also used in the informative in Section 9.1. The hexadecimal
representation is correct and the string should be “Spec ID Event03”.

2.4

Errata 4

In Section 9.4.2 Table 10, the first element in the table has a typographic error in the Name column.
The Name “taggedEvent ID” should be interpreted as “taggedEventID”.
