alt Hacker NewsOn ARM, you control the whole boot process on many SoCs, and can make your own bespoke secure/trusted/measured boot chain, starting from bootrom to the very latest boot stages (given that your SoC manufacturer has root of trust and all the documentation on how to use it), without TPM.
You more or less can't do that on x86, and have to rely on existing proprietary code facilities to implement measured boot using TPM (as the only method), for which you can implement trusted boot, using TPM and all the previous measures proprietary code made to it.
You can do that on x86 too, the main difference is a combination of openness and who you need to sign an NDA with (which, granted, is a big difference, since most ARM vendors are more likely to be your friend than Intel). However, there are a ton of x86 based arcade machines, automotive systems, and so on which have secured root of trust and do not use UEFI at all. On Intel, you get unprovisioned chips and burn your KM hash into the PCH FPFs to advance the lifecycle state at EOM, which is basically the same thing you'd do with most ARM SoCs.
