This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled tpm/ibmvtpm: Additional LE support for tpm_ibmvtpm_send to the 3.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: tpm-ibmvtpm-additional-le-support-for-tpm_ibmvtpm_send.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 62dfd912ab3b5405b6fe72d0135c37e9648071f1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "jmlatten@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" <jmlatten@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 20 Feb 2015 18:11:24 -0600 Subject: tpm/ibmvtpm: Additional LE support for tpm_ibmvtpm_send From: "jmlatten@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" <jmlatten@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 62dfd912ab3b5405b6fe72d0135c37e9648071f1 upstream. Problem: When IMA and VTPM are both enabled in kernel config, kernel hangs during bootup on LE OS. Why?: IMA calls tpm_pcr_read() which results in tpm_ibmvtpm_send and tpm_ibmtpm_recv getting called. A trace showed that tpm_ibmtpm_recv was hanging. Resolution: tpm_ibmtpm_recv was hanging because tpm_ibmvtpm_send was sending CRQ message that probably did not make much sense to phype because of Endianness. The fix below sends correctly converted CRQ for LE. This was not caught before because it seems IMA is not enabled by default in kernel config and IMA exercises this particular code path in vtpm. Tested with IMA and VTPM enabled in kernel config and VTPM enabled on both a BE OS and a LE OS ppc64 lpar. This exercised CRQ and TPM command code paths in vtpm. Patch is against Peter's tpmdd tree on github which included Vicky's previous vtpm le patches.
