[PATCH 0/6] tpm_tis: various cleanups, and support for Intel iTPM

From: Andy Isaacson
Date: Tue Jun 30 2009 - 21:22:31 EST


Several patches to improve drivers/char/tpm/tpm_tis.c:

- autoload tpm_tis.ko based on acpi / pnp
- fix driver/hardware bugs observed on iTPM
- improve module probing printks
- add workaround code for iTPM

With these patches, the T500's iTPM probes ok and has reasonable
contents in /sys/kernel/security/tpm0/ascii_bios_measurements:

% dmesg|grep tpm
[ 8.599680] tpm_tis INTC0102:00: found 0xfed40000(0x5000)
[ 8.599769] tpm_tis INTC0102:00: no IRQ found in _CRS, polling mode
[ 8.608607] tpm_tis INTC0102:00: 1.2 TPM (8086:1020 rev 6)
[ 8.608665] tpm_tis INTC0102:00: Intel iTPM workaround enabled
% sudo head -3 /sys/kernel/security/tpm0/ascii_bios_measurements

0 d9f7d65755c884f6c25680d577f348523006eed3 01 [POST CODE]

Also, I've tested that the driver still works on Dell E4300.

I'm not sure that switching to ACPI probing is either necessary or a
good idea, but I wasn't able to get the pnp_driver system to load the
driver on the Lenovo.
