[PATCH 1/2] tpm, tpm_tis: Handle interrupt storm

From: Lino Sanfilippo
Date: Mon May 22 2023 - 10:32:32 EST


From: Lino Sanfilippo <l.sanfilippo@xxxxxxxxxx>

Commit e644b2f498d2 ("tpm, tpm_tis: Enable interrupt test") enabled
interrupts instead of polling on all capable TPMs. Unfortunately, on some
products the interrupt line is either never asserted or never deasserted.

The former causes interrupt timeouts and is detected by
tpm_tis_core_init(). The latter results in interrupt storms.

Recent reports concern the Lenovo ThinkStation P360 Tiny, Lenovo ThinkPad
L490 and Inspur NF5180M6:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-integrity/20230511005403.24689-1-jsnitsel@xxxxxxxxxx/
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-integrity/d80b180a569a9f068d3a2614f062cfa3a78af5a6.camel@xxxxxxxxxx/

The current approach to avoid those storms is to disable interrupts by
adding a DMI quirk for the concerned device.

However this is a maintenance burden in the long run, so use a generic
approach:

Detect an interrupt storm by counting the number of unhandled interrupts
within a 10 ms time interval. In case that more than 1000 were unhandled
deactivate interrupts, deregister the handler and fall back to polling.

This equals the implementation that handles interrupt storms in
note_interrupt() by means of timestamps and counters in struct irq_desc.
However the function to access this structure is private so the logic has
to be reimplemented in the TPM TIS core.

Since handler deregistration would deadlock from within the interrupt
routine trigger a worker thread that executes the unregistration.
