Hi Ard,

When I apply this, it starts hanging at

status = efi_call_proto(efi_tcg2_protocol, get_event_log, tcg2_protocol,
                        EFI_TCG2_EVENT_LOG_FORMAT_TCG_1_2,
                        &log_location, &log_last_entry, &truncated);

rather than at the memset() call.

Regards,
Jeremy
