Subject: [PATCH v3 4/5] tpm: reduce tpm_msleep() time in get_burstcount()
Date: Wed, 4 Oct 2017 06:29:23 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171004102924.12355-5-nayna@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20171004102924.12355-1-nayna@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Currently, get_burstcount() function sleeps for 5msec in a loop
before retrying for next query to burstcount. However, if it takes
lesser time for TPM to return, this 5msec delay is longer
than necessary.
This patch replaces the tpm_msleep time from 5msec to 1msec.
After this change, performance on a TPM 1.2 with an 8 byte
burstcount for 1000 extends improved from ~10sec to ~9sec.
