version 5 changes: - rebased on kernel 4.3-rc6 - rework locking schema and make handle status use an atomic_t - add a fake secure module to allow performing tests without trusted environment
version 4 changes: - rebased on kernel 4.3-rc3 - fix missing EXPORT_SYMBOL for smaf_create_handle() version 3 changes: - Remove ioctl for allocator selection instead provide the name of the targeted allocator with allocation request. Selecting allocator from userland isn't the prefered way of working but is needed when the first user of the buffer is a software component. - Fix issues in case of error while creating smaf handle. - Fix module license. - Update libsmaf and tests to care of the SMAF API evolution https://git.linaro.org/people/benjamin.gaignard/libsmaf.git version 2 changes: - Add one ioctl to allow allocator selection from userspace. This is required for the uses case where the first user of the buffer is a software IP which can't perform dma_buf attachement. - Add name and ranking to allocator structure to be able to sort them. - Create a tiny library to test SMAF: https://git.linaro.org/people/benjamin.gaignard/libsmaf.git - Fix one issue when try to secure buffer without secure module registered The outcome of the previous RFC about how do secure data path was the need of a secure memory allocator (https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/5/5/551) SMAF goal is to provide a framework that allow allocating and securing memory by using dma_buf. Each platform have it own way to perform those two features so SMAF design allow to register helper modules to perform them. To be sure to select the best allocation method for devices SMAF implement deferred allocation mechanism: memory allocation is only done when the first device effectively required it. Allocator modules have to implement a match() to let SMAF know if they are compatibles with devices needs. This patch set provide an example of allocator module which use dma_{alloc/free/mmap}_attrs() and check if at least one device have coherent_dma_mask set to DMA_BIT_MASK(32) in match function. I have named smaf-cma.c like it is done for drm_gem_cma_helper.c even if a better name could be found for this file. Secure modules are responsibles of granting and revoking devices access rights on the memory. Secure module is also called to check if CPU map memory into kernel and user address spaces. An example of secure module implementation can be found here: http://git.linaro.org/people/benjamin.gaignard/optee-sdp.git This code isn't yet part of the patch set because it depends on generic TEE which is still under discussion (https://lwn.net/Articles/644646/) For allocation part of SMAF code I get inspirated by Sumit Semwal work about constraint aware allocator.
