Introduce a firewall framework that offers to firewall consumers different
firewall services such as the ability to check their access rights against
their firewall controller(s).

The firewall framework offers a generic API that is defined in firewall
controllers drivers to best fit the specificity of each firewall.

There are various types of firewalls:
-Peripheral firewalls that filter accesses to peripherals
-Memory firewalls that filter accesses to memories or memory regions
-Resource firewalls that filter accesses to internal resources such as
reset and clock controllers

A firewall controller must be probed at arch_initcall level and register
to the framework so that consumers can use their services.

As I can see you support some extra args, that can be provided in the
feature-domain property. But in the binding description I see maxItems:
2. I beliewe this should be highlighted in bindings description.


Good point, maybe it would be better to define a high maxItem value in
the binding description that is aligned with STM32_FIREWALL_MAX_ARGS.

IIUC list_for_each_entry_safe protects you from removing node during
loop. But all list operations are done under
firewall_controller_list_lock mutex. I beliewe there is no need for
_safe call under the mutex because removing node during loop is
impossible. I think it worth investigation if it's safe to use
list_for_each_entry_safe without lock.

AFAICT, list_for_each_entry_safe() does not protect against concurrent
accesses, so I'll keep the mutex lock.

Deleting while iterating will cause trouble if not using the safe
version. I think it is fine as it is.

Can we store all registered IDs that were found by populate_bus

populate_bus call?


This function is intended to be used by devices that needs to check
specific ID. Maybe IDs of peripherals that do not have a driver in
Linux / driver isn't probed / ...

About storing all IDs found when populating the bus, do you have some
use in mind? :) Else I'd prefer to save some memory.
