Commit Message

Etienne Carriere May 16, 2023, 12:51 p.m. UTC
Adds support in the OP-TEE driver to keep track of reserved system
threads. The optee_cq_*() functions are updated to handle this if
enabled. The SMC ABI part of the driver enables this tracking, but the
FF-A ABI part does not.

The call queue list optee_call_queue::waiters is replaced by 2 lists,
one for regular sessions and one system sessions. The struct also
stores count of TEE thread contexts provisioned/used/reserved to
track use of TEE resources. The logic allows at most 1 OP-TEE entry
can be reserved to TEE system sessions. For sake of simplicity,
initialization of call queue management is factorized into new
helper function optee_cq_init().

Changes since v7:
- Changes the logic to reserve at most 1 call entry for system sessions
  as per patches v6 and v7 discussion threads (the 2 below bullets)
  and updates commit message accordingly.
- Field optee_call_queue::res_sys_thread_count is replaced with 2 fields:
  sys_thread_req_count and boolean sys_thread_in_use.
- Field optee_call_waiter::sys_thread is replaced with 2 fields:
  sys_thread_req and sys_thread_used.
- Adds inline description comments for struct optee_call_queue and
  struct optee_call_waiter.

Changes since v6:
- Moved out changes related to adding boolean system thread attribute
  into optee driver call queue and SMC/FF-A ABIs API functions. These
  changes were squashed into patch 1/4 of this patch v7 series.
- Comment about adding a specific commit for call queue refactoring
  was not addressed such a patch would only introduce function
  optee_cq_init()  with very little content in (mutex & list init).
- Added Co-developed-by tag for Jens contribution as he's not responsible
  for the changes I made in this patch v7.

No change since v5

Changes since v4:
- New change that supersedes implementation proposed in PATCH v4
  (tee: system invocation"). Thanks to Jens implementation we don't need
  the new OP-TEE services that my previous patch versions introduced to
  monitor system threads entry. Now, Linux optee SMC ABI driver gets TEE
  provisioned thread contexts count once and monitors thread entries in
  OP-TEE on that basis and the system thread capability of the related
  tee session. By the way, I dropped the WARN_ONCE() call I suggested
  on tee thread exhaustion as it does not provides useful information.

The implementation looks complex to me, see a simplified version [1]
of this patch.
