[ Upstream commit2f661f71fd] With some Infineon chips the timeouts in tpm_tis_send_data (both B and C) can reach up to about 2250 ms. Timeout C is retried since commitde9e33df77("tpm, tpm_tis: Workaround failed command reception on Infineon devices") Timeout B still needs to be extended. The problem is most commonly encountered with context related operation such as load context/save context. These are issued directly by the kernel, and there is no retry logic for them. When a filesystem is set up to use the TPM for unlocking the boot fails, and restarting the userspace service is ineffective. This is likely because ignoring a load context/save context result puts the real TPM state and the TPM state expected by the kernel out of sync. Chips known to be affected: tpm_tis IFX1522:00: 2.0 TPM (device-id 0x1D, rev-id 54) Description: SLB9672 Firmware Revision: 15.22 tpm_tis MSFT0101:00: 2.0 TPM (device-id 0x1B, rev-id 22) Firmware Revision: 7.83 tpm_tis MSFT0101:00: 2.0 TPM (device-id 0x1A, rev-id 16) Firmware Revision: 5.63 Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-integrity/Z5pI07m0Muapyu9w@kitsune.suse.cz/ Signed-off-by: Michal Suchanek <msuchanek@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Jarkko Sakkinen <jarkko@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jarkko Sakkinen <jarkko@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
