Subject: [PATCH v2] tpm: fix TIS locality timeout problems
Date: Thu, 28 May 2020 11:10:57 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1590689457.3449.7.camel@HansenPartnership.com> (raw)
It has been reported that some TIS based TPMs are giving unexpected
errors when using the O_NONBLOCK path of the TPM device. The problem
is that some TPMs don't like it when you get and then relinquish a
locality (as the tpm_try_get_ops()/tpm_put_ops() pair does) without
sending a command. This currently happens all the time in the
O_NONBLOCK write path. Fix this by moving the tpm_try_get_ops()
further down the code to after the O_NONBLOCK determination is made.
This is safe because the priv->buffer_mutex still protects the priv
state being modified.
