+TPMLIB_DecodeBlob - Decode a base64-encode TPM blob
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+B<#include <libtpms/tpm_types.h>>

+B<#include <libtpms/tpm_library.h>>
+
+B<TPM_RESULT TPMLIB_DecodeBlob(const char> *I<buffer>B<,

+ unsigned char> **I<result>B<
+ size_t> *I<result_len>B<);>
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+The B<TPMLIB_DecodeBlob()> function is used to decode a base64-encoded
+TPM state blob. The caller must pass what type of blob is expected to be
+decoded and following that the function will look for the start and
+end markers of the data.
+
+The following types of blobs are supported along with their start and
+end markers:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<BLOB_TYPE_INITSTATE>
+
+'-----BEGIN INITSTATE-----' marks the beginning of the base64-encoded blob.
+
+'-----END INITSTATE-----' marks the end of the base64-encoded blob.
+
+=back
+
+This function is useful when passing state to the TPM inside the
+callback that is invoked to get the TPM's state blob.
+See I<TPMLIB_RegisterCallbacks>(3).
+
+=head1 ERRORS
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<TPM_SUCCESS>
+
+The function completed successfully.
+
+=item B<TPM_SIZE>
+
+The size of a requested buffer exceeds the limit or the
+system is out of memory.
+
+=item B<TPM_FAIL>
+
+An error occurred while attempting to decode the blob.
