Are TPM Firmware updates supported by LVFS ?

(Although these updates are not frequently published by Dell like BIOS ones.)

Yes, but I've never seen a vendor actually use the TPM-defined update protocol. Most TPM updates are performed using a UEFI UpdateCapsule or shipped as part of a composite system update in the case of Dell.

Which Dell product are you using? And what TPM version is installed and available?

abhi-deshpande commented 4 weeks ago

Mine is an Optiplex 7060 micro with Nuvoton TPM 2.0. I remember I had upgraded TPM with TPM Firmware update utility from Dell Support before migration to Linux. Current version is the latest one 7.2.2.0. I asked this question because I am concerned with any future updates to it and how to do that on Linux.

fwupdmgr does show my TPM as an updatable device.

TPM updates not available through LVFS at this time.
