Hi Gavin,

Thanks for looking at the patch. Responses inline.

All I/O is by default considered non-secure for realms. As such

Changes since v3:
  * Add PROT_NS_SHARED to FIXMAP_PAGE_IO rather than overriding
    set_fixmap_io() with a custom function.
  * Modify ioreamp_cache() to specify PROT_NS_SHARED too.

I'm unable to understand this. Steven, could you please explain a bit how
PROT_NS_SHARED is turned to a shared (non-secure) mapping to hardware?
According to tf-rmm's implementation in tf-rmm/lib/s2tt/src/s2tt_pvt_defs.h,
a shared (non-secure) mapping is is identified by NS bit (bit#55). I find
difficulties how the NS bit is correlate with PROT_NS_SHARED. For example,
how the NS bit is set based on PROT_NS_SHARED.


There are two things at play here :

1. Stage1 mapping controlled by the Realm (Linux in this case, as above).
2. Stage2 mapping controlled by the RMM (with RMI commands from NS Host).

Also :
The Realm's IPA space is divided into two halves (decided by the IPA Width of the Realm, not the NSbit #55), protected (Lower half) and
Unprotected (Upper half). All stage2 mappings of the "Unprotected IPA"
will have the NS bit (#55) set by the RMM. By design, any MMIO access
to an unprotected half is sent to the NS Host by RMM and any page
the Realm wants to share with the Host must be in the Upper half
of the IPA.

What we do above is controlling the "Stage1" used by the Linux. i.e,
for a given VA, we flip the Guest "PA" (in reality IPA) to the
"Unprotected" alias.

e.g., DTB describes a UART at address 0x10_0000 to Realm (with an IPA width of 40, like in the normal VM case), emulated by the host. Realm is
trying to map this I/O address into Stage1 at VA. So we apply the
BIT(39) as PROT_NS_SHARED while creating the Stage1 mapping.

ie., VA == stage1 ==> BIT(39) | 0x10_0000 =(IPA)== > 0x80_10_0000

Now, the Stage2 mapping won't be present for this IPA if it is emulated
and thus an access to "VA" causes a Stage2 Abort to the Host, which the
RMM allows the host to emulate. Otherwise a shared page would have been
mapped by the Host (and NS bit set at Stage2 by RMM), allowing the
data to be shared with the host.

Does that answer your question ?
