To generate the boot_aggregate log in the IMA subsystem using TPM PCR values, the TPM driver must be built as built-in and must be probed before the IMA subsystem is initialized.
However, when the TPM device operates over the FF-A protocol using the CRB interface, probing fails and returns -EPROBE_DEFER if the tpm_crb_ffa device — an FF-A device that provides the communication interface to the tpm_crb driver — has not yet been probed. This issue occurs because both crb_acpi_driver_init() and tpm_crb_ffa_driver_init() are registered with device_initcall. As a result, crb_acpi_driver_init() may be invoked before tpm_crb_ffa_driver_init(), which is responsible for probing the tpm_crb_ffa device. When this happens, IMA fails to detect the TPM device and logs the following message: | ima: No TPM chip found, activating TPM-bypass! Consequently, it cannot generate the boot_aggregate log with the PCR values provided by the TPM. To resolve this issue, the tpm_crb_ffa_init() function explicitly attempts to probe the tpm_crb_ffa. This ensures that the TPM device using CRB over FF-A can be successfully probed, even if crb_acpi_driver_init() is called first.
