Hi Greg,
Unsigned PDs are sandboxed DSP processes used to offload computation
workloads to the DSP. Unsigned PD have less privileges in terms of
DSP resource access as compared to Signed PD.

Unsigned PD can be enabled using userspace API:
https://git.codelinaro.org/linaro/qcomlt/fastrpc/-/blob/master/src/fastrpc_apps_user.c?ref_type=heads#L1173

For multimode invoke request(other feature) also I've shared the
userspace changes with Srini which he will be pulling to userspace
project.

Please let me know if you have any other queries.

Thanks
