Looks good in general; can we be more explicit here about the template, with a specific reference to where it's found? This is where we found incompatibilities between the implementations because things like NODA led to a different generated key, isn't it?

Looking for this in the TPM specs so I could heckle more usefully in 'diff -up' form, I don't actually find it. I *do* find wording such as (ยง23.7 of the Architecture spec) "A Primary Object may have fixedParent SET or CLEAR". Which doesn't really help, since in our case the derived object really MUST have all of TPMA_OBJECT_NODA, TPMA_OBJECT_FIXEDTPM, TPMA_OBJECT_FIXEDPARENT etc. otherwise it won't match between implementations. When we reconciled the tpm2-tss-engine with yours, I recall that we added NODA, and FIXEDTPM|FIXEDPARENT to them respectively to make them match. Is the template we use actually spelled out somewhere in the TPM specs that I'm missing, or do we need to make it explicit in your draft?
