That explains everything.

The next problem is TrouSerS's LoadKeyByUUID function does not support
auth secret.

The quick workaround is OpenPTS uses LoadKeyByBlob in place of
LoadKeyByUUID for this TPM.
So the key blob will be stored in some place. e.g. /var/lib/openpts/key.blob
And the key auth type and storage location will be configured by /etc/ptsc.conf.
