Hi,

This patch series adds the listed features that have been missing
in upstream fastRPC driver.

- Redesign and improve remote heap management.
- Add static PD restart support for audio and sensors PD using
   PDR framework.
- Add changes to support multimode invocation ioctl request. This
   ioctl call facilitates multiple types of requests from user including
   CRC check, performance counters, shared context bank usage, etc.
   This series also carries patch to save and restore interrupted
   context.
- Add early wakeup support to allow DSP user to send early response
   to CPU and improve fastrpc performance.
- Add polling mode support with which driver polls on memory to avoid
   CPU from going to low power modes.
- Add notifications frameworks to provide users with the DSP PD status
   notifications.
- Add a control mechanism to allow users to clean up DSP user PD
- Add wakelock management support
- Add DSP signalling support
- Add check for untrusted applications and allow trusted processed to
   offload to system unsigned PD.

Could you precise:
- Which workload are you fixing
- Which platforms are concerned
- Which platforms were tested

1. This patch mostly consists of missing features from fastrpc driver and it doesn't
carry any bug fixes.
2. We are not targeting these changes for any specific platform. These features are
applicable for most of the recent platforms .
3. These changes were tested on SM8650 and QCM6490 platforms.

So far I've been trying to run the "getserial" on SM8550-QRD and SM8650-QRD without
success, would those changes fix this ?

Can you please help me with the "getserial" failure details? Or the steps that you are
running to get to the failure? I can have a look at that to understand the reason for
failure.

Is there any chance we could get an open-source minimal implementation of a fastRPC SDK using
the open-source Hexagon LLVM like we have for the AIC100 ?
It would definitely help validating the upstream fastRPC implementation.

Generally Hexagon SDK is used to write and test fastRPC use-cases which is well documented.
Is there anything else that you can suggest would help here?


Thanks,
Neil
