Hi Laurent, I think your case is different, as the trace shows the issue occurs in the place already guarded by tpm_chip_start()/stop() - tpm2_probe(). Can you paste more dmesg log? (With tpm prefix?). I believe tpm_tis_status() might return something different than 0xff here. Please ensure you have applied Jarkko's patch that logs status (https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-integrity/patch/20210202222150.120664-1-jarkko@xxxxxxxxxx/) Best regards Lukasz wt., 16 lut 2021 o 12:02 Laurent Bigonville <bigon@xxxxxxxxxx> napisał(a): > > Le 16/02/21 à 09:17, Jarkko Sakkinen a écrit : > > From: Lukasz Majczak <lma@xxxxxxxxxxxx> > > > > This is shown with Samsung Chromebook Pro (Caroline) with TPM 1.2 > > (SLB 9670): > > > > [ 4.324298] TPM returned invalid status > > [ 4.324806] WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 1 at drivers/char/tpm/tpm_tis_core.c:275 tpm_tis_status+0x86/0x8f > > > > Background > > ========== > > > > TCG PC Client Platform TPM Profile (PTP) Specification, paragraph 6.1 FIFO > > Interface Locality Usage per Register, Table 39 Register Behavior Based on > > Locality Setting for FIFO - a read attempt to TPM_STS_x Registers returns > > 0xFF in case of lack of locality.
