Could you please test out the patch I proposed for this:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-integrity/1302b413a2d7bf3b275133e7fdb04b44bfe2d5e3.camel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
Because it's not just tmp_ibmvtpm that doesn't call autostart. From
inspection xen-tpmfront, tmp_nsc, tpm_infineon and tpm_atmel also
afaik tpm_infineon is a TPM 1.2 driver; same holds for tpm_atmel and
tpm_ns. Neither needs this new call from what I understand. The new TPM2
drivers have the TPM_OPS_AUTO_STARTUP flag set.
$ grep -r AUTO drivers/char/tpm/*.c | grep =
drivers/char/tpm/tpm_crb.c: .flags = TPM_OPS_AUTO_STARTUP,
drivers/char/tpm/tpm_ftpm_tee.c: .flags = TPM_OPS_AUTO_STARTUP,
drivers/char/tpm/tpm_i2c_atmel.c: .flags = TPM_OPS_AUTO_STARTUP,
drivers/char/tpm/tpm_i2c_infineon.c: .flags = TPM_OPS_AUTO_STARTUP,
drivers/char/tpm/tpm_i2c_nuvoton.c: .flags = TPM_OPS_AUTO_STARTUP,
drivers/char/tpm/tpm_ibmvtpm.c: .flags = TPM_OPS_AUTO_STARTUP,
drivers/char/tpm/tpm_tis_core.c: .flags = TPM_OPS_AUTO_STARTUP,
drivers/char/tpm/tpm_tis_i2c_cr50.c: .flags = TPM_OPS_AUTO_STARTUP,
drivers/char/tpm/tpm_vtpm_proxy.c: .flags = TPM_OPS_AUTO_STARTUP,
With xen-tpmfront I am not sure where something like chip->flags |=
TPM_CHIP_FLAG_TPM2 is done -- tpm2-cmd.c::tpm2_probe is not called from
this driver but only from tpm_tis_core.c::tpm_tis_core_init and
otherwise driver set it themselves.
$ grep -r TPM_CHIP_FLAG_TPM2 drivers/char/tpm/*.c | grep =
drivers/char/tpm/tpm2-cmd.c: chip->flags |=
TPM_CHIP_FLAG_TPM2;
drivers/char/tpm/tpm-chip.c: rc = (chip->flags & TPM_CHIP_FLAG_TPM2) ?
drivers/char/tpm/tpm_crb.c: chip->flags = TPM_CHIP_FLAG_TPM2;
drivers/char/tpm/tpm_ftpm_tee.c: pvt_data->chip->flags |=
TPM_CHIP_FLAG_TPM2;
drivers/char/tpm/tpm_i2c_nuvoton.c: chip->flags |=
TPM_CHIP_FLAG_TPM2;
drivers/char/tpm/tpm_ibmvtpm.c: chip->flags |= TPM_CHIP_FLAG_TPM2;
drivers/char/tpm/tpm-interface.c: rc = (chip->flags &
TPM_CHIP_FLAG_TPM2) != 0;
drivers/char/tpm/tpm_tis_i2c_cr50.c: chip->flags |= TPM_CHIP_FLAG_TPM2;
drivers/char/tpm/tpm_vtpm_proxy.c: proxy_dev->chip->flags
|= TPM_CHIP_FLAG_TPM2;
don't, so it would be better to fix this for everyone rather than just
for you and have to do a separate fix for each of them.
I am not sure whether any one of the mentioned drivers actually need
this call and if they need it they should probably move towards setting
TPM_OPS_AUTO_STARTUP.
