When rngd is run as root then lots of these types of message will appear
in the kernel log if the TPM has been configure to provide random bytes:
[ 7406.275163] tpm tpm0: tpm_transmit: tpm_recv: error -4
The issue is caused by the following call that is interrupted while
waiting for the TPM's response.
sig = wait_event_interruptible(ibmvtpm->wq,
!ibmvtpm->tpm_processing_cmd);
The solution is to use wait_event() instead.
To recreat the issue start rngd like this:
sudo rngd -r /dev/hwrng -t
