Subject: [PATCH] firmware: stratix10-svc: build only on 64-bit ARM

The Stratix10 service layer and RCU drivers are useful only on
Stratix10, so on ARMv8. Compile testing the RCU driver on 32-bit ARM
fails:

While I agree that one shouldn't run 32-bit kernels on this, we should also try
to write drivers portably, and in theory any SoC that can run a 64-bit
Arm kernel
should also be able to run a 32-bit kernel if you include the same drivers.

It seems that the problem here is in the smccc definition

struct arm_smccc_res {
unsigned long a0;
unsigned long a1;
unsigned long a2;
unsigned long a3;
};

so the result of

#define RSU_VERSION_MASK GENMASK_ULL(63, 32)
priv->status.version = FIELD_GET(RSU_VERSION_MASK, res->a2);

tries to access bits that are just not returned by the firmware here,
which indicates that it probably won't work in this case.

What I'm not entirely sure about is whether this is a problem in
the Intel firmware implementation requiring the smccc caller to
run in a 64-bit context, or if it's a mistake in the way the driver
extracts the information if the firmware can actually pass it down
correctly.

The SMC has two calling conventions - SMC32/HVC32 and SMC64/HVC64. The
Stratix 10 driver uses the 64-bit calling convention (see
INTEL_SIP_SMC_FAST_CALL_VAL in
include/linux/firmware/intel/stratix10-smc.h), so it should not run in
aarch32 (regardless of type of hardware).

I think that my patch limiting the support to 64-bit makes sense.

Krzysztof

I see that this is the only driver in the kernel that doesn't support the
32-bit calling conventions though, everything else either uses the the 32-bit
calling conventions unconditionally, or picks the ones matching the
kernel execution state.

If the firmware supports both, it would seem best to change the driver
to work like the other ones and pick the appropriate interface based
on what kernel it's running on.

If the firmware is fundamentally limited to the 64-bit interface, your
patch does seem correct, but I'd suggest explaining that in the
changelog.

This we know, however the questions were:
1. Why the driver cannot be made portable? Why it cannot be developed in
a way it allows building on different platforms?
2. Does the actual firmware support 32-bit SMC convention call?

The stratix10 service layer and RSU driver are only used in Intel 64-bit
SoCFPGA platforms.

The drivers was originally developed for Intel Stratix10 SoCFPGA
platform, which is ARM 64-bit architecture. The same drivers can be used
for other Intel ARM 64-bit SoCFPGA platforms (Agilex, eASIC N5X as
example), which have the same SDM architecture as Stratix10 has.

SDM = Secure Device Manager

So far Intel 32-bit SoCFPGA platform doesn't support SDM architecture.
