86a06615 44 <filename>systemd-pcrphase-sysinit.service</filename>, and
708d7524 45 <filename>systemd-pcrphase-initrd.service</filename> are system services that measure specific strings
047273e6 46 into TPM2 PCR 11 during boot at various milestones of the boot process.</para>
708d7524 47
2bd33c90
LP
48 <para><filename>systemd-pcrmachine.service</filename> is a system service that measures the machine ID
49 (see <citerefentry><refentrytitle>machine-id</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>) into
50 PCR 15.</para>
51
52 <para><filename>systemd-pcrfs-root.service</filename> and <filename>systemd-pcrfs@.service</filename> are
53 services that measure file system identity information (i.e. mount point, file system type, label and
54 UUID, partition label and UUID) into PCR 15. <filename>systemd-pcrfs-root.service</filename> does so for
55 the root file system, <filename>systemd-pcrfs@.service</filename> is a template unit that measures the
56 file system indicated by its instance identifier instead.</para>

60 used in a unified kernel image (UKI). They execute no operation when the stub has not been used to invoke
61 the kernel. The stub will measure the invoked kernel and associated vendor resources into PCR 11 before
86a06615 62 handing control to it; once userspace is invoked these services then will extend TPM2 PCR 11 with certain
2bd33c90
LP
63 literal strings indicating phases of the boot process. During a regular boot process PCR 11 is extended
64 with the following strings:</para>

86 (i.e. before <filename>systemd-user-sessions.service</filename>). It acts as barrier between the time

102 <para>During a regular system lifecycle, PCR 11 is extended with the strings

LP
105
106 <para>Specific phases of the boot process may be referenced via the series of strings measured, separated
86a06615 107 by colons (the "phase path"). For example, the phase path for the regular system runtime is
047273e6 108 <literal>enter-initrd:leave-initrd:sysinit:ready</literal>, while the one for the initrd is just
86a06615
ZJS
109 <literal>enter-initrd</literal>. The phase path for the boot phase before the initrd is an empty string;
110 because that's hard to pass around a single colon (<literal>:</literal>) may be used instead. Note that
111 the aforementioned six strings are just the default strings and individual systems might measure other
112 strings at other times, and thus implement different and more fine-grained boot phases to bind policy
113 to.</para>
708d7524 114
86a06615
ZJS
115 <para>By binding policy of TPM2 objects to a specific phase path it is possible to restrict access to
116 them to specific phases of the boot process, for example making it impossible to access the root file
117 system's encryption key after the system transitioned from the initrd into the host root file system.
