[v2,0/2] Xen FF-A mediator

Message

Hi,

This patch sets add a FF-A [1] mediator modeled after the TEE mediator
already present in Xen. The FF-A mediator implements the subset of the FF-A
1.1 specification needed to communicate with OP-TEE using FF-A as transport
mechanism instead of SMC/HVC as with the TEE mediator. It allows a similar
design in OP-TEE as with the TEE mediator where OP-TEE presents one virtual
partition of itself to each guest in Xen.

The FF-A mediator is generic in the sense it has nothing OP-TEE specific
except that only the subset needed for OP-TEE is implemented so far. The
hooks needed to inform OP-TEE that a guest is created or destroyed is part
of the FF-A specification.

It should be possible to extend the FF-A mediator to implement a larger
portion of the FF-A 1.1 specification without breaking with the way OP-TEE
is communicated with here. So it should be possible to support any TEE or
Secure Partition using FF-A as transport with this mediator.
