Subject: [PATCH v4 1/1] tpm_crb_ffa: handle tpm busy return code
Date: Fri, 13 Jun 2025 18:31:32 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250613233132.4167653-2-prachotan.bathi@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250613233132.4167653-1-prachotan.bathi@arm.com>

For CRB over FF-A interface, if the firmwre TPM or TPM service [1] shares
its Secure Partition (SP) with another service, message requests may
fail with a -EBUSY error. Platforms supporting direct message request v2[1]
 can support secure partitions that support multiple services.

To handle this, replace the single check and call with a retry loop
that attempts the TPM message send operation until it succeeds or a
configurable timeout is reached. The retry mechanism introduces a
module parameter (`busy_timeout`, default: 2000ms) to control how long
to keep retrying on -EBUSY responses. Between retries, the code waits
briefly (50-100 microseconds) to avoid busy-waiting and handling
TPM BUSY conditions more gracefully.
