+Description: This attribute holds current Thunderbolt security level
+ set by the system BIOS. Possible values are:
+
+ none: All devices are automatically authorized
+ user: Devices are only authorized based on writing
+ appropriate value to the authorized attribute
+ secure: Require devices that support secure connect at
+ minimum. User needs to authorize each device.
+ dponly: Automatically tunnel Display port (and USB). No
+ PCIe tunnels are created.

+Description: This attribute is used to authorize Thunderbolt devices
+ after they have been connected. If the device is not
+ authorized, no devices such as PCIe and Display port are
+ available to the system.
+
+ Contents of this attribute will be 0 when the device is not
+ yet authorized.
+
+ Possible values are supported:
+ 1: The device will be authorized and connected
+
+ When key attribute contains 32 byte hex string the possible
+ values are:
+ 1: The 32 byte hex string is added to the device NVM and
+ the device is authorized.
+ 2: Send a challenge based on the 32 byte hex string. If the
+ challenge response from device is valid, the device is
+ authorized. In case of failure errno will be ENOKEY if
+ the device did not contain a key at all, and
+ EKEYREJECTED if the challenge response did not match.

+Description: When a devices supports Thunderbolt secure connect it will
+ have this attribute. Writing 32 byte hex string changes

+Description: If the device has upgradeable firmware the version
+ number is available here. Format: %x.%x, major.minor.
+ If the device is in safe mode reading the file returns
+ -ENODATA instead as the NVM version is not available.

+Description: When new NVM image is written to the non-active NVM
+ area (through non_activeX NVMem device), the
+ authentication procedure is started by writing 1 to
+ this file. If everything goes well, the device is
+ restarted with the new NVM firmware. If the image
+ verification fails an error code is returned instead.
+
+ When read holds status of the last authentication
+ operation if an error occurred during the process. This
+ is directly the status value from the DMA configuration
+ based mailbox before the device is power cycled. Writing
+ 0 here clears the status.
