rpmb: add Replay Protected Memory Block (RPMB) subsystem

2024-08-26T11:16:20+00:00

A number of storage technologies support a specialised hardware partition designed to be resistant to replay attacks. The underlying HW protocols differ but the operations are common. The RPMB partition cannot be accessed via standard block layer, but by a set of specific RPMB commands. Such a partition provides authenticated and replay protected access, hence suitable as a secure storage. The initial aim of this patch is to provide a simple RPMB driver interface which can be accessed by the optee driver to facilitate early RPMB access to OP-TEE OS (secure OS) during the boot time. A TEE device driver can claim the RPMB interface, for example, via rpmb_interface_register() or rpmb_dev_find_device(). The RPMB driver provides a callback to route RPMB frames to the RPMB device accessible via rpmb_route_frames(). The detailed operation of implementing the access is left to the TEE device driver itself.

misc: mrvl-cn10k-dpi: add Octeon CN10K DPI administrative driver

2024-07-10T12:58:29+00:00

Adds a misc driver for Marvell CN10K DPI(DMA Engine) device's physical function which initializes DPI DMA hardware's global configuration and enables hardware mailbox channels between physical function (PF) and it's virtual functions (VF). VF device drivers (User space drivers) use this hw mailbox to communicate any required device configuration on it's respective VF device. Accordingly, this DPI PF driver provisions the VF device resources. At the hardware level, the DPI physical function (PF) acts as a management interface to setup the VF device resources, VF devices are only provisioned to handle or control the actual DMA Engine's data transfer capabilities.

misc: keba: Add basic KEBA CP500 system FPGA support

2024-07-04T10:29:07+00:00

The KEBA CP500 system FPGA is a PCIe device, which consists of multiple IP cores. Every IP core has its own auxiliary driver. The cp500 driver registers an auxiliary device for each device and the corresponding drivers are loaded by the Linux driver infrastructure. Currently 3 variants of this device exists. Every variant has its own PCI device ID, which is used to determine the list of available IP cores. In this first version only the auxiliary device for the I2C controller is registered. Besides the auxiliary device registration some other basic functions of the FPGA are implemented; e.g, FPGA version sysfs file, keep FPGA configuration on reset sysfs file, error message for errors on the internal AXI bus of the FPGA.

misc: Add Nitro Secure Module driver

2023-11-28T19:05:16+00:00

When running Linux inside a Nitro Enclave, the hypervisor provides a special virtio device called "Nitro Security Module" (NSM). This device has 3 main functions: 1) Provide attestation reports 2) Modify PCR state 3) Provide entropy This patch adds a driver for NSM that exposes a /dev/nsm device node which user space can issue an ioctl on this device with raw NSM CBOR formatted commands to request attestation documents, influence PCR states, read entropy and enumerate status of the device. In addition, the driver implements a hwrng backend.

misc: tps6594-pfsm: Add driver for TI TPS6594 PFSM

2023-06-15T11:41:53+00:00

This PFSM controls the operational modes of the PMIC: - STANDBY and LP_STANDBY, - ACTIVE state, - MCU_ONLY state, - RETENTION state, with or without DDR and/or GPIO retention. Depending on the current operational mode, some voltage domains remain energized while others can be off. This PFSM is also used to trigger a firmware update, and provides R/W access to device registers. See Documentation/misc-devices/tps6594-pfsm.rst for more information.

habanalabs: move driver to accel subsystem

2023-01-26T09:52:10+00:00

Now that we have a subsystem for compute accelerators, move the habanalabs driver to it. This patch only moves the files and fixes the Makefiles. Future patches will change the existing code to register to the accel subsystem and expose the accel device char files instead of the habanalabs device char files. Update the MAINTAINERS file to reflect this change. Signed-off-by: Oded Gabbay
