Do you have a source reference?

In my userspace TPM work I use a code generator to produce all the
marshal/unmarshal/AUTH directly from the TPM specification text. The
full generality of TPM RPCs is sufficiently complex that hand coding
is too error prone. The handful of ops the kernel does is not so bad
though...
