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.

  For a detailed history of the patch series, see

OP-TEE Device Tree Bindings

OP-TEE is a piece of software using hardware features to provide a Trusted
Execution Environment. The security can be provided with ARM TrustZone, but
also by virtualization or a separate chip.

We're using "linaro" as the first part of the compatible property for
the reference implementation maintained by Linaro.

* OP-TEE based on ARM TrustZone required properties:

- compatible : should contain "linaro,optee-tz"

- method : The method of calling the OP-TEE Trusted OS. Permitted
values are:

"smc" : SMC #0, with the register assignments specified
in drivers/tee/optee/optee_smc.h

"hvc" : HVC #0, with the register assignments specified
in drivers/tee/optee/optee_smc.h



Example:
firmware {
optee {
compatible = "linaro,optee-tz";
method = "smc";
};
};

TEE subsystem
This document describes the TEE subsystem in Linux.

A TEE (Trusted Execution Environment) is a trusted OS running in some
secure environment, for example, TrustZone on ARM CPUs, or a separate
secure co-processor etc. A TEE driver handles the details needed to
communicate with the TEE.

This subsystem deals with:

- Registration of TEE drivers

- Managing shared memory between Linux and the TEE

- Providing a generic API to the TEE

The TEE interface
=================

include/uapi/linux/tee.h defines the generic interface to a TEE.

User space (the client) connects to the driver by opening /dev/tee[0-9]* or
/dev/teepriv[0-9]*.

- TEE_IOC_SHM_ALLOC allocates shared memory and returns a file descriptor
which user space can mmap. When user space doesn't need the file
descriptor any more, it should be closed. When shared memory isn't needed
any longer it should be unmapped with munmap() to allow the reuse of
memory.

- TEE_IOC_VERSION lets user space know which TEE this driver handles and
the its capabilities.

- TEE_IOC_OPEN_SESSION opens a new session to a Trusted Application.

- TEE_IOC_INVOKE invokes a function in a Trusted Application.

- TEE_IOC_CANCEL may cancel an ongoing TEE_IOC_OPEN_SESSION or TEE_IOC_INVOKE.

- TEE_IOC_CLOSE_SESSION closes a session to a Trusted Application.

There are two classes of clients, normal clients and supplicants. The latter is
a helper process for the TEE to access resources in Linux, for example file
system access. A normal client opens /dev/tee[0-9]* and a supplicant opens
/dev/teepriv[0-9].

Much of the communication between clients and the TEE is opaque to the
driver. The main job for the driver is to receive requests from the
clients, forward them to the TEE and send back the results. In the case of
supplicants the communication goes in the other direction, the TEE sends
requests to the supplicant which then sends back the result.

OP-TEE driver
=============

The OP-TEE driver handles OP-TEE [1] based TEEs. Currently it is only the ARM
TrustZone based OP-TEE solution that is supported.

Lowest level of communication with OP-TEE builds on ARM SMC Calling
Convention (SMCCC) [2], which is the foundation for OP-TEE's SMC interface
[3] used internally by the driver. Stacked on top of that is OP-TEE Message
Protocol [4].

OP-TEE SMC interface provides the basic functions required by SMCCC and some
additional functions specific for OP-TEE. The most interesting functions are:

- OPTEE_SMC_FUNCID_CALLS_UID (part of SMCCC) returns the version information
which is then returned by TEE_IOC_VERSION

- OPTEE_SMC_CALL_GET_OS_UUID returns the particular OP-TEE implementation, used
to tell, for instance, a TrustZone OP-TEE apart from an OP-TEE running on a
separate secure co-processor.

- OPTEE_SMC_CALL_WITH_ARG drives the OP-TEE message protocol

- OPTEE_SMC_GET_SHM_CONFIG lets the driver and OP-TEE agree on which memory
range to used for shared memory between Linux and OP-TEE.

The GlobalPlatform TEE Client API [5] is implemented on top of the generic
TEE API.

Picture of the relationship between the different components in the
OP-TEE architecture.

RPC (Remote Procedure Call) are requests from secure world to kernel driver
or tee-supplicant. An RPC is identified by a special range of SMCCC return
values from OPTEE_SMC_CALL_WITH_ARG. RPC messages which are intended for the
kernel are handled by the kernel driver. Other RPC messages will be forwarded to
tee-supplicant without further involvement of the driver, except switching
shared memory buffer representation.
