Subject: [PATCH] crypto: caam: disable pkc for non-E SoCs

On newer CAAM versions, not all accelerators are disabled if the SoC is
a non-E variant. While the driver checks most of the modules for
availability, there is one - PKHA - which sticks out. On non-E variants
it is still reported as available, that is the number of instances is
non-zero, but it has limited functionality. In particular it doesn't
support encryption and decryption, but just signing and verifying. This
is indicated by a bit in the PKHA_MISC field. Take this bit into account
if we are checking for availablitly.

This will the following error:
[ 8.167817] caam_jr 8020000.jr: 20000b0f: CCB: desc idx 11: : Invalid CHA selected.

Tested on an NXP LS1028A (non-E) SoC.

Currently there's no dedicated support for "partially disabled" non-E
(export-controlled) parts in Linux kernel caam driver(s).

Up until recently firmware (U-boot) was deleting the "crypto" DT node
for all non-E parts [1].
Modifying the f/w indeed triggers changes across the s/w stack.

Since you are modifying only the caam code handling PKHA, is it correct
to assume that everything else is working fine?
For example: is the number of AES accelerators (AESA_VERSION[AESA_NUM])
being reported as 0 on non-E parts?

Thanks.
Unfortunately I don't have a non-E part to test on.

Well, it does check if a module is available or not. And this seem to be the only module which have "something in between". I.e. the number of available modules is not zero but it also doesn't work as expected.

Everything else is skipped because the "number of instances" is zero.

yes, see above.

If there is nothing else wrong, could this be fixed while applying?

You can take a look at the ls1028a RM where this bit is. described to verify what the patch is doing ;)

Thanks for taking a look.

Ok, thanks for confirming.
Documentation is not clear about what happens when the "NSEC" fuse is blown.

It looks like the reported number of accelerator instances is not reflecting
what's "built" into caam IP block, but what is available.
Blowing the "NSEC" fuse permanently disables some accelerators (e.g. AES),
while others are either not affected (e.g. MDHA, RNG) or partially disabled
(when they implement also functions that are not export-controlled) - only PKHA
seems to be in the last case.

I fixed the typo while applying this.

Patch applied. Thanks.
