[PATCH v3 3/4] tpm_tis: Use responseRetry to recover from data transfer errors

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



TPM responses may become damaged during transmission, for example due to
bit flips on the wire. Instead of aborting when detecting such issues, the
responseRetry functionality can be used to make the TPM retransmit its
response and receive it again without errors.
