2017-08-04	tee: tee_shm: Constify dma_buf_ops structures.	Arvind Yadav	1	-1/+1
	dma_buf_ops are not supposed to change at runtime. All functions working with dma_buf_ops provided by <linux/dma-buf.h> work with const dma_buf_ops. So mark the non-const structs as const.

	Pull TEE driver infrastructure and OP-TEE drivers from Arnd Bergmann: "This introduces a generic TEE framework in the kernel, to handle trusted environemtns (security coprocessor or software implementations such as OP-TEE/TrustZone). I'm sending it separately from the other arm-soc driver changes to give it a little more visibility, once the subsystem is merged, we will likely keep this in the arm₋soc drivers branch or have the maintainers submit pull requests directly, depending on the patch volume. I have reviewed earlier versions in the past, and have reviewed the latest version in person during Linaro Connect BUD17. Here is my overall assessment of the subsystem: - There is clearly demand for this, both for the generic infrastructure and the specific OP-TEE implementation. - The code has gone through a large number of reviews, and the review comments have all been addressed, but the reviews were not coming up with serious issues any more and nobody volunteered to vouch for the quality. - The user space ioctl interface is sufficient to work with the OP-TEE driver, and it should in principle work with other TEE implementations that follow the GlobalPlatform[1] standards, but it might need to be extended in minor ways depending on specific requirements of future TEE implementations - The main downside of the API to me is how the user space is tied to the TEE implementation in hardware or firmware, but uses a generic way to communicate with it. This seems to be an inherent problem with what it is trying to do, and I could not come up with any better solution than what is implemented here.

2017-03-09	tee: generic TEE subsystem	Jens Wiklander	1	-0/+358
	Initial patch for generic TEE subsystem. This subsystem provides: * Registration/un-registration of TEE drivers. * Shared memory between normal world and secure world. * Ioctl interface for interaction with user space. * Sysfs implementation_id of TEE driver A TEE (Trusted Execution Environment) driver is a driver that interfaces with a trusted OS running in some secure environment, for example, TrustZone on ARM cpus, or a separate secure co-processor etc. The TEE subsystem can serve a TEE driver for a Global Platform compliant TEE, but it's not limited to only Global Platform TEEs. This patch builds on other similar implementations trying to solve the same problem: * "optee_linuxdriver" by among others Jean-michel DELORME<jean-michel.delorme@st.com> and Emmanuel MICHEL <emmanuel.michel@st.com> * "Generic TrustZone Driver" by Javier González <javier@javigon.com> Acked-by: Andreas Dannenberg <dannenberg@ti.com> Tested-by: Jerome Forissier <jerome.forissier@linaro.org> (HiKey) Tested-by: Volodymyr Babchuk <vlad.babchuk@gmail.com> (RCAR H3) Tested-by: Scott Branden <scott.branden@broadcom.com> Reviewed-by: Javier González <javier@javigon.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Wiklander <jens.wiklander@linaro.org>
