Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] tpm: tpm_tis: stop transmit if retries are exhausted
Date: Sat, 11 Apr 2026 00:33:00 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260411003300.1823020-3-jacqwong@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260411003300.1823020-1-jacqwong@google.com>

tpm_tis_send_main() will attempt to retry sending data TPM_RETRY times.
Currently, if those retries are exhausted, the driver will attempt to
call execute. The TPM will be in the wrong state, leading to the
operation simply timing out.

Instead, if there is still an error after retries are exhausted, return
that error immediately.

Fixes: 280db21e153d8 ("tpm_tis: Resend command to recover from data transfer errors")
