From: Nikita Travkin <nikitos...@gmail.com> This series adds memshare QMI service. It receives messages from other subsystems (like modem subsystem) and answers with a message that contains the memory address of the allocated region. This is used on many msm8916 based devices for location service which requests 2 MB region when the modem starts. If the memory isn't provided, GPS doesn't work. Newer platforms may also use it in other subsystems.
The driver implements: - legacy alloc/free messages (known to be used by Samsung A2015 devices) - generic alloc/free messages (used on most msm8916 devices) - query_size message (sent by at least one modem firmware for msm8916) Downstream driver [1] seems to use dynamic memory allocation but it uses concept of "Guaranteed Memory" which means that the region is allocated on driver probe and not released even after "free" request. It also seems to support memory allocation "on demand" without prior client description. My driver implements "guaranteed" allocation using reserved-memory regions and does not allow allocation for any request that was not described in the device tree. It also additionally checks that qrtr node that sent the message is correct (to prevent, for example, processing messages sent from userspace). memshare_qmi_msg.c/h files are mostly copied from [1] (query_size was added from later version of the driver) and cleaned up. Those files keep copyright line from the originals. This driver is tested to work on multiple msm8916 devices, including devices that have dts upstream (with an exception of mtp; db410c doesn't use it).
