What we planned

1. Improve the support of TPM2 in coreboot and SeaBIOS. Currently there is only the TCPA (TPM1.2) log support in coreboot. Additionally SeaBIOS overwrites existing entries in TPM2 log area. cbmem utility also lacks support for displaying TPM2 log area.

   WORK IN PROGRESS

2. Reorganize runtime configuration by making it persistent across updates and accessible from user space. Also prepare a tool for offline binary modification.
