Information about TF is scarce unfortunately. I don't have full information on this topic, but there is certainly no common standard ABI. Every example I've seen is different so far, though some will be less different than others. ARM are baking some proposabls for that, but that doesn't change the existing software, and it's impossible to predict how rapidly a new standards proposal would be adopted. So unfortunately, diversity is something we will have to cope with for the foreseeable future. > > What we can always do is make a compatible property that lists > > everything[1], and have the driver match on the most specific value for > > now, but relax the driver's matching later if it turns out that the ABI > > is indeed common. > > > > [1] That'd need to be at least secure OS name, and secure OS version. > > Perhaps the SoC and board data can be deduced from the DT's top-level > > compatible properties; nvidia,tegra114-shield, nvidia,tegra114? > > They can probably, but in theory nothing prevents a board from coming > with different secure monitors (or none at all).

Since existing SMC based firmwares are not safely probeable, describing what's there using DT feels like the best bet for now.

Agreed. In this case, can we assume that support for a specific secure monitor is not arch-specific, and that this patch should be moved outside of arch-tegra and down to arch/arm? In other words, the ABI of a particular secure monitor should be the same no matter the chip, shouldn't it? >>> >>> I would like to believe that the Trusted Foundations monitor had the >>> same ABI irrespective of which Soc it was running on.

Right, there certainly isn't a common ABI across all secure monitors, but in this case I was wondering something more specific: whether for this specific implementation/provider of a secure monitor, if they had a consistent ABI across all SoCs (or even boards) that they implemented it on. ___ devicetree-discuss mailing list devicetree-discuss@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/devicetree-discuss

No they aren't. They will be preserved as: mov r0, r0 mov r1, r1 mov r2, r2 Moreover, things will go wrong if the compiler decides for whatever reason to move 'arg' into r0 before calling your code sequence. So really this is quite fragile. There's also no point in mentioning EABI in the above paragraph; all ARM ABIs under Linux have always placed the arguments in r0..r3 and then on the stack.

What is wrong with stacking r4-r12, lr onto the SVC stack? You don't save the SVC stack pointer, so one can only assume that your SMC implmentation preserves this (if it doesn't, that's yet another bug with this assembly code.) Combining these two issues, you're probably far better off using an __attribute__((naked)) function for this - which means you get to write the entire function in assembly code without any compiler interference: static void __attribute__((naked)) tegra_generic_smc(u32 type, u32 subtype, u32 arg) { asm volatile( ".arch_extensionsec\n\t" "stmfd sp!, {r4 - r12, lr}\n\t" __asmeq("%0", "r0") __asmeq("%1", "r1") __asmeq("%2", "r2") "movr3, #0\n\t" "movr4, #0\n\t" "dsb\n\t" "smc#0\n\t" "ldmfd sp!, {r4 - r12, pc}" : : "r" (type), "r" (subtype), "r" (arg) : "memory"); } ___ devicetree-discuss mailing list devicetree-discuss@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/devicetree-discuss

(The address in reg property is pointing to SYSRAM > memory, which is an additional communication channel with the firmware.) Calling to SecureOS doesn't sound like a "choice" to me. It's part of the platform, and if it's present then you have to use it, otherwise major functionality (i.e., SMP) broken. Having a proper node still makes sense, because you can put a "compatible" property on it to track interface compatibility etc. This was the view taken for PSCI (though in practice, we do have additional information to put in the DT for that anyway).

I suspect "SecureOS" here is the name of a specific implementation of a secure monitor, right? It's certainly a very unfortunate name, since it sounds like a generic concept rather than a specific implementation:-( There certainly could be (and I believe are in practice?) multiple implementation of a secure monitor for Tegra.

There is no fixed set of functionality implemented by these interfaces, so it might be better to think in terms of a generic "firmware" concept. Come to think of it... One option could be to have some standard baseline firmware calling conventions, so that we could have a few specific backends -- perhaps this could be built on the "method" notion used by PSCI (see Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/psci.tst; this is probably the most developed firmware interface binding we have today) There, method = "smc" means: populate registers in a certain way SMC #0 return results from register to caller in a certain way and method = "hvc" means: populate registers in a certain way HVC #0 return results from register to caller in a certain way The backend method arch/arm/kernel/psci.c:__invoke_psci_fn_smc() is probably close to what's needed for the tegra secureos case, so in theory it could be common, along with some of the DT binding conventions. The backends, and the convention for binding a firmware interface to the appropriate backend, could then theoretically be handled by a common framework. Firmwares with strange calling conventions which don't fit the standard backend could still add another one, within the framework. > > > diff --git a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/tegra.txt > > b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/tegra.txt > > > +node: > > + > > + nvidia,secure-os: enable SecureOS. > > ... as such, I think some work is needed here to allow specification of > which secure monitor is present and/or which secure monitor ABI it > implements.

I'm not sure if the method property is useful in most cases. For generic ABIs such as PSCI that actually support multiple communication paths, yes, it makes sense. However, it seems like for most custom ABIs, such as is presumably implemented by whatever "SecureOS" is on Tegra, the firmware type (or compatible value) directly implies that it operates over SMC not HVC. After all, presumably if the kernel was virtualized, it wouldn't have access to the raw secure monitor? I suppose you could argue that the hypervisor might end up emulating the same ABI over HVC instead? I'm not sure how likely that is. A compromise might be to assume SMC if no property was present, which would allow it to be optionally added later if it turned out to be useful. > ...where we would require all new firmware interface bindings to > include the "-firmware" in their node names and compatible strings > (with a version suffix encouraged for the compatible strings, where > relevant). That's probably a good convention, but I'm not sure it should be required (or at least validated by code). Requiring this by code review might be OK.

Detection of the secure mode at runtime would only solve half of the issue: we would know that we are running in non-secure mode, but we would still not know what monitor is operating. Detecting that part is impossible AFAIK, so I'm afraid we need to pass that information through the DT here.

Agreed. In this case, can we assume that support for a specific secure monitor is not arch-specific, and that this patch should be moved outside of arch-tegra and down to arch/arm?

I'm not sure whether we could use the same backend for many different firmwares. If I understand you correctly, you propose to have a backend to the "smc" call that would cover the needs of all firmwares that rely on the smc instruction to invoke the firmware/secure monitor. I can understand the logic, but I'm not sure this is needed or even possible. For instance, the implementation you have in __invoke_psci_fn_smc assumes 4 arguments, while Tegra's only needs 3. Also (and although I have to confess I am not very knowledgeable about the "SecureOS" covered by this patch and need to double-check what follows), in Tegra's case registers r3-r11 can be altered by the secure monitor and need to be preserved - something you don't need to do with PSCI. Another example is the function that Tomasz shown (https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/tree/arch/arm/mach-exynos/exynos-smc.S?id=refs/tags/next-20130606 ), which preserves r4-r11 but also assumes r3 is an argument - that's again another slightly different convention. All in all the needs of the various firmwares might end up being just different enough that we need to have a different backend for each of them. The firmware_ops defined in arch/arm/include/asm/firmware.h perform the abstraction at a higher level, which seems more fit here IMHO.

I would like to believe that the Trusted Foundations monitor had the same ABI irrespective of which Soc it was running on. However, I have absolutely no idea at all if that's true. Even if there's some common subset of the ABI that is identical across all SoCs, I wouldn't be too surprised if there were custom extensions for each different SoC, or just perhaps even each product. Can you research this and find out the answer? What we can always do is make a compatible property that lists everything[1], and have the driver match on the most specific value for now, but relax the driver's matching later if it turns out that the ABI is indeed common. [1] That'd need to be at least secure OS name, and secure OS version. Perhaps the SoC and board data can be deduced from the DT's top-level compatible properties; nvidia,tegra114-shield, nvidia,tegra114? ___ devicetree-discuss mailing list devicetree-discuss@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/devicetree-discuss

Is it unnecessary? Most likely it's either unnecessary, or insufficient. Just for entering call SMC properly, it's not needed. If the Secure World has its MMU on and maps Normal World memory using the same memory types as Linux, then the Normal World and Secure World access the memory coherently with no extra barrier needed. It the Secure World's MMU is off, or if it maps Normal World memory as Secure (pagetable NS bit = 0), or if it maps Normal World memory with memory types incompatible with the ones Linux is using then you will get coherency problems: the Secure and Normal Worlds won't necessarily see the same data. In the latter case, you must do explicit cache maintenance around SMC for the data you want to exchange. This might also be needed in the Secure World if caches are enabled over there. DSB isn't enough by itself. If the Secure World doesn't access Normal World memory at all, you don't need to do anything special and can remove the DSB. Otherwise, for performance reasons, it is definitely preferable to have the Secure World MMU on if possible, though it's a bit more complex to set up. > >> + "smc#0\n\t" > >> + "ldrr3, =__tegra_smc_stack\n\t" > >> + "ldmia r3, {r4-r12, lr}" > >> + : > >> + : [type]"r" (type), > >> + [subtype] "r" (subtype), > >> + [arg] "r" (arg) > >> + : "r0", "r1", "r2", "r3", "r4", "memory"); > > > > If r5-r12 are not clobbered, why do you save and restore them? > > The secure monitor might change them. Sure, but you could just add all the registers to the clobber list, and then the compiler would save and restore them for you in the function entry/exit sequences, which may be a bit more efficient. Since you are going to replace this code anyway, it's academic though. > > > In the ARM ABI, r12 is a caller-save register, so you probably > > don't need to save/restore that even if it is clobbered. > > Right, thanks. Didn't know r12 could be used as a scratch register. What I said is a bit wrong actually: for the naked version of the function you can go ahead and corrupt r12, because naked functions are not inlinable and follow the ABI. Adding "r12" in the clobber list would be harmless in this case, but I don't think it's necessary. asm() in any other context needs to declare all registers that it might clobber.

For most firmware interface bindings, the backend could be implied. The binding could be extended later if an alternative backend were needed. If an SMC-called firmware interface is visible to a guest running under a hypervisor at all, it is probably still callable using SMC, since hypervisors can trap and proxy/emulate it instead of the call bypassing the hypervisor and going straight to the Secure World. If the interface is not visible, the hypervisor shouldn't put the relevant node in the DT supplied to the guest (just as any physical hardware not accessible to the guest shouldn't be described in the DT). Firmware interfaces which don't specifically depend on the Security Extensions need multiple backends, because hypervisors can't trap SMC on ARMv8 platforms which don't implement the Security Extensions -- this was an issue for PSCI, and it's why HVC is used instead by KVM etc. For "Secure OS" interfaces this won't be an issue since those interfaces don't make sense if the Security Extensions aren't there. > > ...where we would require all new firmware interface bindings to > > include the "-firmware" in their node names and compatible strings > > (with a version suffix encouraged for the compatible strings, where > > relevant). > > That's probably a good convention, but I'm not sure it should be > required (or at least validated by code).

Agreed: I don't think this makes sense as a formal binding, but rather it's a convention we can follow which avoids DTs being unnecessarily cryptic.

One way to make the backend generic would be to have something like one of the following (some syntax omitted due to laziness): u32 __naked __call_smc(u32 r0, ...) { asm volatile ( stmfd sp!, {r4-r11,lr} smc #0 ldmfd sp!, {r4-r11,pc} ::: "memory" ); } /* The above works for up to 4 u32 arguments */ u32 __naked __call_smc(u32 r0, ...) { asm volatile ( mov ip, sp stmfd sp!, {r4-r11,lr} ldmia ip, {r4-r11} smc #0 ldmfd sp!, {r4-r11,pc} ::: "memory" ); } /* * Works for up to 13 u32 arguments, provided the stack is deep * enough to provide suitable garbage data to fill the registers * if the caller supplied fewer arguments (a bit of a hack) */ u32 __naked __call_smc(struct pt_regs *regs) { asm( stmfd sp!, {r4-r11,lr} /* load regs from */ smc #0 /* save regs back to */ ldmfd sp!, {r4-r11,pc} ); } /* * Most generic, least-efficient version. * Can return up to 13 u32 results instead of just one. * For convenience, the r0 value returned by the SMC could be * left in r0 so that it also determines the return value of the * function. * * Most of the time, SMC shouldn't be called on any hot path, * otherwise the performance battle is already lost -- so it may * not be crucial to reach the maximum possible efficiency for * these calls. */ A particular firmware's Linux glue code might have to put extra stuff around calls to generic_smc, but at least generic_smc itself wouldn't need to be reinvented, and the firmware-specific glue code could usually avoid asm. > Another example is the function that Tomasz shown > (https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/tree/arch/arm/mach-exynos/exynos-smc.S?id=refs/tags/next-20130606 > ), which preserves r4-r11 but also assumes r3 is an argument - that's > again another slightly different convention. ... for which the above implementations of __call_smc() should work too. > All in all the needs of the various firmwares might end up being just > different enough t

Right. I suppose you mentioned this in the context of my initial code - however if I understand how inline asm works (in case it wasn't clear already, I probably don't), turning this function into a naked function will make it impossible for the compiler to generate the entry/exit sequences since the assembler code will be responsible for returning from the function. One could remove the naked attribute and put there registers into the clobber list, but then the function will be inlined and we will have to ensure the parameters end up in the right register (and having a function that cannot be inlined is convenient in that respect). So as far as I can tell, having the function naked and saving the registers ourselves seems to be the most convenient way around this.

I agree that your versions would most likely work in our (and probably many others) case. But I wonder if individual platforms will not prefer to sacrifice the ease of use of a generic version for the ability to write faster code that will just preserve what is needed (whether that performance gain is justified or not is of course subject to debate). I don't have enough hindsight to decide which approach is the best, but until we have more examples of firmwares that would justify such a factorization, I think I'd like to go with our own version first - for there is already more than enough to fix in this patch. :) Thanks, Alex. ___ devicetree-discuss mailing list devicetree-discuss@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/devicetree-discuss

They can probably, but in theory nothing prevents a board from coming with different secure monitors (or none at all). In this case, just having the board name might not be enough. Having a proper node for the firmware like David and Tomasz suggested seems to be the best way to make sure we cover all cases - I think I will try to do it this way for the next version, and hopefully come with a binding that is useful for everyone.

Information about TF is scarce unfortunately. The answer is... there isn't a common ABI. That is something I pressed ARM Ltd for when this stuff first appeared and they were adamant that they were not going to specify any kind of ABI for this interface. The net result is that everyone has invented their own interfaces around it. Some pass all arguments in registers, some pass arguments in memory and pass pointers to those memory locations, and those memory locations have to be flushed in some way. ___ devicetree-discuss mailing list devicetree-discuss@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/devicetree-discuss
