The changes include new sysfs files because of more relevant data being available, a function to access the timeout and duration values for the chip, and changes to make use of those duration values. Duration in the TPM specification is defined as the maximum amount of time the chip could take to return the results. Commands are in one of three categories short, medium and long. Also included are cleanups of how the commands for the sysfs files are composed to reduce a bunch of redundant arrays. The patches in this set have been updated to include the comments posted to the first set. The whole set will also need Marcel Selhorst's tpm_infineon patch (http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux- kernel&m=114432147318726&w=2)in order for that module to build with these changes. It can be applied anywhere in the order as they do not change any files in common Thanks, Kylie
