SPI protocol standardized by the TCG is described in the TCG PTP
specification 1.3 (chapter 6.4.6 SPI Bit Protocol), It was published by
TCG_PCClientTPMInterfaceSpecification_TIS__1-3_27_03212013.pdf.

The TPM version number in the help message is wrong, which will
cause confusion. This patch fixes it.

I'm still not convinced you got this right, the document you cite only
seems to mention TPM 1.2 as the base for TIS 1.3, but not TPM 1.3.

You are right, I was careless, thanks for your reply.
