[PATCH v6 09/10] arm_ffa: efi: introduce FF-A MM communication

Thu Oct 13 12:38:56 CEST 2022


Add MM communication support using FF-A transport

This feature allows accessing MM partitions services through
EFI MM communication protocol. MM partitions such as StandAlonneMM
or smm-gateway secure partitions which reside in secure world.

An MM shared buffer and a door bell event are used to exchange
the data.

The data is used by EFI services such as GetVariable()/SetVariable()
and copied from the communication buffer to the MM shared buffer.

The secure partition is notified about availability of data in the
MM shared buffer by an FF-A message (door bell).

On such event, MM SP can read the data and updates the MM shared
buffer with the response data.

The response data is copied back to the communication buffer and
consumed by the EFI subsystem.

Changelog:
===============

v6:

* add FF-A runtime discovery at MM communication level
* drop EFI runtime support for FF-A MM communication
* revert the changes in include/mm_communication.h for
  efi_mm_communicate_header and smm_variable_access structures

v4:

* use the new FF-A driver interfaces
* discover MM partitions at runtime
* copy FF-A driver private data to EFI runtime section at
  ExitBootServices()
* drop use of FFA_ERR_STAT_SUCCESS error code
* replace EFI_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL with EFI_OUT_OF_RESOURCES
  in ffa_mm_communicate(). No need for efi_memcpy_runtime() anymore
* revert the error log in mm_communicate() in case of failure
* remove packed attribute from efi_mm_communicate_header and
  smm_variable_communicate_header

v2:

* set default values to 0 for FFA_SHARED_MM_BUFFER_SIZE, FFA_SHARED_MM_BUFFER_ADDR and MM_SP_UUID_DATA and add warnings

v1:

* introduce FF-A MM communication
