From: Jan Dabros <jsd@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Currently tpm transactions are executed unconditionally in tpm_pm_suspend() function, which may lead to races with other tpm accessors in the system. Specifically, the hw_random tpm driver makes use of tpm_get_random(), and this function is called in a loop from a kthread, which means it's not frozen alongside userspace, and so can race with the work done during system suspend: [ 3.277834] tpm tpm0: tpm_transmit: tpm_recv: error -52 [ 3.278437] tpm tpm0: invalid TPM_STS.x 0xff, dumping stack for forensics [ 3.278445] CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: init Not tainted 6.1.0-rc5+ #135 [ 3.278450] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.16.0-20220807_005459-localhost 04/01/2014 [ 3.278453] Call Trace: [ 3.278458] <TASK> [ 3.278460] dump_stack_lvl+0x34/0x44 [ 3.278471] tpm_tis_status.cold+0x19/0x20 [ 3.278479] tpm_transmit+0x13b/0x390 [ 3.278489] tpm_transmit_cmd+0x20/0x80 [ 3.278496] tpm1_pm_suspend+0xa6/0x110 [ 3.278503] tpm_pm_suspend+0x53/0x80 [ 3.278510] __pnp_bus_suspend+0x35/0xe0 [ 3.278515] ? pnp_bus_freeze+0x10/0x10 [ 3.278519] __device_suspend+0x10f/0x350 Fix this by calling tpm_try_get_ops(), which itself is a wrapper around tpm_chip_start(), but takes the appropriate mutex.
