Anyway, from the log messages it is clear that tpm_msleep got called
seven times with delays of 20/40/80/160/320/640/1280ms. But still
all timestamps lie within the same second. How can this be with a
cumulated delay of ~2.5s?
Yes, that does seem to be the bug, our sleep function doesn't work
aynmore for some reason :|
I have no access to the system right now, but want to point out, that
the log was created by `journactl -k`, so I do not know if that messes
with the time stamps. I checked the output of `dmesg` but didn’t see the
TPM error messages in the output – only `tpm_tis MSFT0101:00: 2.0 TPM
(device-id 0xFE, rev-id 4)`. Do I need to pass a different error message
to `dmesg`?
Also, I've just noticed that despite the name tpm_msleep calls
usleep_range, not msleep. Can this have an influence? Should
tpm_msleep call msleep for longer delays, as suggested by
Documentation/timers/timers-howto.txt?
This change was introduced recently and is probably the source of this
regression.
I’ll try to test this on Monday.
Kind regards,
Paul
