[PATCH 07/10] xen/arm: ffa: refactor direct requests via RUN helper
Posted by Bertrand Marquis 2 weeks, 2 days ago
Share the SMCCC plumbing used by SEND_DIRECT and RUN via a common
ffa_finish_direct_req_run() helper so canonical success and error cases
are handled in one place.

The dispatcher now routes FFA_RUN through ffa_handle_run(), and direct
requests bail out early if a guest targets itself or a non-secure
endpoint. This simplifies the direct path and prepares the mediator for
the wider v1.2 register ABI.

From the above, it sounds like FFA_RUN was already supported, but I
don't see how.

FFA_RUN should be removed from the list of unsupported FF-A interfaces
close to the top of this file.

The rest looks good.

Cheers,

Yes It seems i forgot to rework the commit message when i rework
the split in my serie.

I will update the commit message in next version.

In fact i do that in the last patch of the serie with adding support for FFA_RUN
in ffa_features but this does not really make sense as this is not bounded to 1.2.

I will move those from patch 10 into this one instead in next version.
