Merge tag 'ffa-updates-6.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sudeep.holla/linux into soc/drivers Arm FF-A updates for v6.7 The main addition is the initial support for the notifications and memory transaction descriptor changes added in FF-A v1.1 specification. The notification mechanism enables a requester/sender endpoint to notify a service provider/receiver endpoint about an event with non-blocking semantics. A notification is akin to the doorbell between two endpoints in a communication protocol that is based upon the doorbell/mailbox mechanism. The framework is responsible for the delivery of the notification from the ender to the receiver without blocking the sender. The receiver endpoint relies on the OS scheduler for allocation of CPU cycles to handle a notification. OS is referred as the receiver’s scheduler in the context of notifications. The framework is responsible for informing the receiver’s scheduler that the receiver must be run since it has a pending notification. The series also includes support for the new format of memory transaction descriptors introduced in v1.1 specification. Apart from the main additions, it includes minor fixes to re-enable FF-A drivers usage of 32bit mode of messaging and kernel warning due to the missing assignment of IDR allocation ID to the FFA device. It also adds emitting 'modalias' to the base attribute of FF-A devices. * tag 'ffa-updates-6.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sudeep.holla/linux: firmware: arm_ffa: Upgrade the driver version to v1.1 firmware: arm_ffa: Update memory descriptor to support v1.1 format firmware: arm_ffa: Switch to using ffa_mem_desc_offset() accessor KVM: arm64: FFA: Remove access of endpoint memory access descriptor array firmware: arm_ffa: Simplify the computation of transmit and fragment length firmware: arm_ffa: Add notification handling mechanism firmware: arm_ffa: Add interface to send a notification to a given partition firmware: arm_ffa: Add interfaces to request notification callbacks firmware: arm_ffa: Add schedule receiver callback mechanism firmware: arm_ffa: Initial support for scheduler receiver interrupt firmware: arm_ffa: Implement the NOTIFICATION_INFO_GET interface firmware: arm_ffa: Implement the FFA_NOTIFICATION_GET interface firmware: arm_ffa: Implement the FFA_NOTIFICATION_SET interface firmware: arm_ffa: Implement the FFA_RUN interface firmware: arm_ffa: Implement the notification bind and unbind interface firmware: arm_ffa: Implement notification bitmap create and destroy interfaces firmware: arm_ffa: Update the FF-A command list with v1.1 additions firmware: arm_ffa: Emit modalias for FF-A devices firmware: arm_ffa: Allow the FF-A drivers to use 32bit mode of messaging firmware: arm_ffa: Assign the missing IDR allocation ID to the FFA device Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231010124354.1620064-1-sudeep.holla@arm.comSigned-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
