From: David Gibson <david@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 72d0556dca39f45eca6c4c085e9eb0fc70aec025 ] The tpm2_get_cc_attrs_tbl() call will result in TPM commands being issued, which will need the use of the internal command/response buffer. But, we're issuing this *before* we've waited to make sure that buffer is allocated. This can result in intermittent failures to probe if the hypervisor / TPM implementation doesn't respond quickly enough. I find it fails almost every time with an 8 vcpu guest under KVM with software emulated TPM. To fix it, just move the tpm2_get_cc_attrs_tlb() call after the existing code to wait for initialization, which will ensure the buffer is allocated.
