tested with "tcrypt.ko" and "kcapi" tool.

Need help to test these all the patches on msm platform

DT changes here are only for a few IPQ platforms, please explain in the cover letter if this is some IPQ specific feature which doesn't exist on other platforms, or if you're only enabling it on IPQ.

This feature is BAM hardware feature so its applicable for all the QCOM Soc where bam is there. Its not IPQ specific. Will add all the explanation in cover letter in next patch

Please configure your email client such that your replies follow the
typical style of mail list discussions. I believe go/upstream has
instructions for this.
Ok


Some broad strokes testing instructions (at the very least) and requirements (testing on what hardware?) aren't made obvious at all here.

Sure will update in cover letter in next patch.

I'm interested in these instructions as well, but no need to wait for
another version to provide these instructions. Please just reply here
(and then include them if there are future versions)

Requirements:
In QCE crypto driver we are accessing the crypto engine registers directly via CPU read/write so its possible
if other subsystem possibly Trust Zone also tries to perform some crypto operations simultaneously, a race
condition will be created and this could result in undefined behavior.

To avoid this behavior we need to use BAM HW LOCK/UNLOCK feature on BAM pipes, and this LOCK/UNLOCK will
be set via sending a command descriptor, where the HLOS/TZ QCE crypto driver prepares a command descriptor
with a dummy write operation on one of the QCE crypto engine register and pass the LOCK/UNLOCK flag along
with it.

This feature tested with tcrypt.ko and "libkcapi" with all the AES algorithm supported by QCE crypto engine.
Tested on IPQ9574 and qcm6490.LE chipset.

Paraller test with two different EE's (Execution Environment)

EE1 (Trust Zone) EE2 (HLOS)

There is a TZ application which "libkcapi" or "tcrypt.ko" will run in continous loop
will do continious enc/dec with to do enc/dec with different algorithm supported
different AES algorithm supported QCE crypto engine.
by QCE crypto engine.

1) dummy write with LOCK bit set 1) dummy write with LOCK bit set

2) bam will lock all other pipes which not 2) bam will lock all other pipes which not
belongs to current EE's, i.e HLOS pipe belongs to current EE's, i.e tz pipe and
and keep handling current pipe only. keep handling current pipe only.

3) tz prepare data descriptor and submit to CE5 3) hlos prepare data descriptor and submit to CE5

4) dummy write with UNLOCK bit set 4) dummy write with UNLOCK bit set

5) bam will release all the locked pipes 5) bam will release all the locked pipes

Upon encountering a descriptor with Lock bit set, the BAM will lock all other pipes not related to the current pipe group,
and keep handling the current pipe only until it sees the Un-Lock set (then it will release all locked pipes). The actual
locking is done on the new descriptor fetching for publishing, i.e. locked pipe will not fetch new descriptors even if it
got event/events adding more descriptors for this pipe.
