[RFC PATCH 5/7] firmware: arm_scmi: Add xfer_init_buffers transport op

From: Peter Hilber
Date: Fri Sep 18 2020 - 12:56:05 EST


From: Igor Skalkin <igor.skalkin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The virtio transport in this patch series can be simplified by using the
scmi_xfer tx/rx buffers for data exchange with the virtio device, and
for saving the message state. But the virtio transport requires
prepending a transport-specific header. Also, for data exchange using
virtqueues, the tx and rx buffers should not overlap.

After the previous patch, this is the second and final step to enable
the virtio transport to use the scmi_xfer buffers for data exchange.

Add an optional op through which the transport can allocate the tx/rx
buffers along with room for the prepended transport-specific headers.
