Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] tpm: reduce poll sleep time in tpm_transmit()
Date: Tue, 17 Apr 2018 09:12:45 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180417131246.434-2-nayna@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180417131246.434-1-nayna@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
The TPM polling code in tpm_transmit sleeps in each loop iteration for
5 msecs. However, the TPM might return earlier, and thus waiting for
5 msecs adds an unnecessary delay. This patch reduces the polling sleep
time in tpm_transmit() from 5 msecs to 1 msecs.
Additionally, this patch renames TPM_POLL_SLEEP and moves it to tpm.h as
an enum value.
After this change, performance on a TPM 1.2 with an 8 byte burstcount
for 1000 extends improved from ~14 sec to ~10.7 sec.
