event MUST be measured once. See

 

Section 11.3.1 (Event Types).

 

The BIOS MUST record the EV_ACTION

 

event “Calling INT 19h” or the

 

EV_UEFI_ACTION event “Calling UEFI

 

Application from Boot Option.” See

 

Section 11.3.3 (EV_ACTION Event

 

Types).

The BIOS MUST record the EV_ACTION event “Calling INT 19h” or the EV_UEFI_ACTION event “Calling UEFI Application from Boot Option.” See Section 11.3.3 (EV_ACTION Event Types).
