With some Infineon chips the timeouts in tpm_tis_send_data (both B and
C) can reach up to about 2250 ms.
Timeout C is retried since
commit de9e33df77 ("tpm, tpm_tis: Workaround failed command reception on Infineon devices")
Timeout B still needs to be extended.
The problem is most commonly encountered with context related operation
such as load context/save context. These are issued directly by the
kernel, and there is no retry logic for them.
When a filesystem is set up to use the TPM for unlocking the boot fails,
and restarting the userspace service is ineffective. This is likely
because ignoring a load context/save context result puts the real TPM
state and the TPM state expected by the kernel out of sync.
Chips known to be affected:
tpm_tis IFX1522:00: 2.0 TPM (device-id 0x1D, rev-id 54)
Description: SLB9672
Firmware Revision: 15.22
tpm_tis MSFT0101:00: 2.0 TPM (device-id 0x1B, rev-id 22)
Firmware Revision: 7.83
tpm_tis MSFT0101:00: 2.0 TPM (device-id 0x1A, rev-id 16)
Firmware Revision: 5.63

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
