Any reason to avoid s32 and u32?
If this is supposed to be shared with user-space (or user-space may
use this as a reference of data struct), we should consider placing in
uapi directory, too.

it's intentional

The includes shared with userspace are in include/uapi/sound/sof.

All the files in include/sound/sof, and this one in particular, are more for host-dsp IPC.

In those two cases, uapi and IPC files, we don't use s32 and u32. we could move this directory under include/uapi/sound/sof-ipc if you prefer?

Since this must be a sleepable context, you can safely use
spin_lock_irq() here.

Ditto.  This one calls tx_wait_done() later.

It's better to define more strictly which one can be called from the
spinlocked context and which not.

This one is for Keyon and team. I've asked that question multiple times and was told the irqsave was needed. Keyon, can you please chime in?

we basically have 3 parts where using this ipc_lock:

1. sof_ipc_tx_message(), get lock, update tx_list, schedule tx_work, put lock, then call tx_wait_done();
2. ipc_tx_next_msg() (tx_work itself), get lock, send message, put lock;
2.5. ack/reply ipc interrupt arrived, mark ipc_complete in handler.
3. tx_wait_done(), wait until ipc_complete(or timeout), then get lock, handle the ack/reply, and put lock at last.

|1 -[--]-|-> 3------(done)-[--]-|
       |             ^
       V             |
       |2-[--]-|     |
               |2.5--|

those []s means holding locks.

So, all those 3 functions can't be called from the spin-locked context as they need to hold the lock inside them.

I admit that we are too conservative that using spin_lock_irqsave/restore() here, as Takashi mentioned, here all 3 functions are actually run in normal thread context, I think we can even run them with interrupt enabled(using spin_lock/unlock() directly).

Sorry, as #2 is a schedule work where should not sleep, so it is better to use spin_lock/unlock_irq() here.

Not specific to this function but a general question:
why not EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() in general in the whole SOF codes?
