Adding support for Arm FF-A v1.0 (Arm Firmware Framework for Armv8-A) [7]. FF-A describes interfaces (ABIs) that standardize communication between the Secure World and Normal World. These interfaces enable a pair of software sandboxes to communicate with each other. A sandbox aka partition could be a VM in the Normal or Secure world, an application in S-EL0, or a Trusted OS in S-EL1.
The FF-A transport is implemented as a data bus and a core driver is provided. This implementation of the specification provides support for Aarch64. The FF-A driver uses the SMC ABIs defined by the FF-A specification to: - Discover the presence of secure partitions (SPs) of interest - Access an SP's service through communication protocols e.g. EFI MM communication protocol The FF-A support provides the following features: - Being generic by design and can be used by any Arm 64-bit platform - The FF-A core driver - The FF-A bus is discoverable on demand at runtime - The driver provides driver operations to be used by clients to access the FF-A bus - FF-A driver can be compiled and used without EFI - Support for SMCCCv1.2 x0-x17 registers - Support for SMC32 calling convention - Support for 32-bit and 64-bit FF-A direct messaging - A new command called armffa is provided as an example of how to access the FF-A bus - An FF-A Sandbox driver is provided with test cases - Support for FF-A MM communication (compatible with EFI boot time) - Enabling FF-A and MM communication in Corstone1000 platform For more details about the FF-A core driver please refer to [8]. Please find at [9] an example of the expected boot logs when enabling FF-A support for a platform. In this example the platform is Corstone1000. But it can be any Arm 64-bit platform. Changelog of the major changes: =========================== v7: * add support for 32-bit direct messaging (now we have 32-bit and 64-bit support) * set the MM door bell event to use 64-bit direct messaging * issue a compile time error when one of these macros are not found : FFA_SHARED_MM_BUFFER_SIZE, FFA_SHARED_MM_BUFFER_OFFSET, FFA_SHARED_MM_BUFFER_ADDR * make uuid_str_to_le_bin() implementation similar to uuid_str_to_bin() by using same APIs v6: [6] * remove clearing x0-x17 registers after SMC calls * drop use of EFI runtime support for FF-A (We decided with Linaro to add this later) * drop discovery from initcalls (discovery will be on demand by FF-A users) * add FF-A runtime discovery at MM communication level * update the documentation and move it to doc/arch/arm64.ffa.rst v5: [5] * move changelogs in each commit to the changes section v4: [4] * add FF-A support README (doc/README.ffa.drv) * improving error handling by mapping the FF-A errors to standard errors and logs * replacing panics with an error log * align sandbox driver and tests with the new FF-A driver interfaces and new way of error handling * use the new FF-A driver interfaces for MM communication * discover MM partitions at runtime * copy FF-A driver private data to EFI runtime section at ExitBootServices() * moving the FF-A driver work to drivers/firmware/arm-ffa * improving features discovery in FFA_FEATURES * add remove/unbind functions to the FF-A core device * improve how the driver behaves when bus discovery is done more than once * move clearing x0-x17 registers code into a new macro like done in the linux kernel * enable EFI MM communication for the Corstone1000 platform v3: [3] * port x0-x17 registers support from linux kernel as defined by SMCCCv1.2 * align the interfaces of the u-boot FF-A driver with those in the linux FF-A driver * remove the FF-A helper layer * make the u-boot FF-A driver independent from EFI * provide an optional config that enables copying the driver data to EFI runtime section at ExitBootServices service * use 64-bit version of FFA_RXTX_MAP, FFA_MSG_SEND_DIRECT_{REQ, RESP} * update armffa command with the new driver interfaces v2 [2]: * make FF-A bus discoverable using device_{bind, probe} APIs * remove device tree support v1 [1]: * introduce FF-A bus driver with device tree support * introduce armffa command * introduce FF-A Sandbox driver * add FF-A Sandbox test cases * introduce FF-A MM communication Cheers, Abdellatif [1]: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220329151659.16894-1-abdellatif.elkhl...@arm.com/ [2]: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220415122803.16666-1-abdellatif.elkhl...@arm.com/ [3]: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220801172053.20163-1-abdellatif.elkhl...@arm.com/ [4]: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220926101723.9965-1-abdellatif.elkhl...@arm.com/ [5]: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220926140827.15125-1-abdellatif.elkhl...@arm.com/ [6]: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20221013103857.614-1-abdellatif.elkhl...@arm.com/ [7]: https://developer.arm.com/documentation/den0077/latest/ [8]: doc/arch/arm64.ffa.rst [9]: example of boot logs when enabling FF-A ``` U-Boot 2022.07 (Jul 11 2022 - 13:42:58 +0000) corstone1000 aarch64 ...
