Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.18-6.17] crypto: ccp - Add support for PCI device 0x115A
Date: Thu, 4 Dec 2025 23:33:42 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251205043401.528993-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
From: "Mario Limonciello (AMD)" <superm1@kernel.org>
[ Upstream commit 9fc6290117259a8dbf8247cb54559df62fd1550f ]
PCI device 0x115A is similar to pspv5, except it doesn't have platform
access mailbox support.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:
## Comprehensive Analysis
### 1. COMMIT MESSAGE ANALYSIS
**Subject:** `crypto: ccp - Add support for PCI device 0x115A`
**Key Information:**
- PCI device 0x115A is a new AMD security processor variant
- The commit message states it's "similar to pspv5, except it doesn't
have platform access mailbox support"
- Signed off by Mario Limonciello (AMD engineer) and Tom Lendacky (AMD)
- Merged by Herbert Xu (crypto maintainer)
**Tags Present:**
- `Signed-off-by`: 3 (proper sign-off chain)
- `Acked-by`: Tom Lendacky (driver maintainer acknowledgment)
- **NO** `Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org` tag
- **NO** `Fixes:` tag (this is expected - it's not fixing a bug, it's
enabling hardware)
### 2. CODE CHANGE ANALYSIS
The commit adds:
**A) New `pspv7` structure (~10 lines):**
```c
static const struct psp_vdata pspv7 = {
.tee = &teev2,
.cmdresp_reg = 0x10944,
.cmdbuff_addr_lo_reg = 0x10948,
.cmdbuff_addr_hi_reg = 0x1094c,
.bootloader_info_reg = 0x109ec,
.feature_reg = 0x109fc,
.inten_reg = 0x10510,
.intsts_reg = 0x10514,
};
```
This is **identical to pspv5** except it omits the `.platform_access =
&pa_v2` field. This is the explicit difference mentioned in the commit
message.
**B) New `dev_vdata[9]` entry (~6 lines):**
```c
{ /* 9 */
.bar = 2,
#ifdef CONFIG_CRYPTO_DEV_SP_PSP
.psp_vdata = &pspv7,
#endif
},
```
**C) New PCI device ID entry (1 line):**
```c
{ PCI_VDEVICE(AMD, 0x115A), (kernel_ulong_t)&dev_vdata[9] },
```
### 3. CLASSIFICATION
**This is a NEW DEVICE ID addition** - one of the explicitly allowed
exceptions for stable kernel backports.
The commit:
- Does NOT add new features or APIs
- Does NOT change existing behavior
- Only enables existing PSP driver functionality on new hardware
- Uses established patterns already in the driver
### 4. SCOPE AND RISK ASSESSMENT
**Change size:** ~17 lines total
- Small, contained data-only change
- No logic changes whatsoever
- Follows identical patterns used by existing pspv1-pspv6 structures
**Risk assessment: VERY LOW**
- The driver already handles NULL `platform_access` - verified in `psp-
dev.c`:
```c
if (psp->vdata->platform_access) {
ret = platform_access_dev_init(psp);
...
}
```
- Several existing structures (pspv1, pspv4, pspv6) already omit
`platform_access`
- The `teev2` structure referenced already exists since v6.5
- All register offsets are identical to pspv5
### 5. USER IMPACT
**Who is affected:**
- Users with AMD PCI device 0x115A (new AMD security processor variant)
- Without this patch, this hardware is completely non-functional
**Severity:** HIGH for affected users - enables critical security
hardware (TPM-like functionality)
### 6. STABILITY INDICATORS
**Positive signals:**
- Acked by Tom Lendacky (the original driver author and AMD maintainer)
- Follows exact same pattern as 10+ previous device ID additions in this
driver
- Same author (Mario Limonciello) has successfully added similar devices
before (0x17E0, 0x156E, etc.)
### 7. DEPENDENCY CHECK
**Required in stable tree:**
- `teev2` structure - added in v6.5 (commit 4aa0931be8f0a)
- Verified present in v6.6 and later
**Recent related commits:**
- 52e8ae868a824: "Add missing bootloader info reg for pspv5" (May 2025)
- 72942d6538564: "Add missing tee info reg for teev2" (May 2025)
The pspv7 structure in this commit already includes the
`bootloader_info_reg` correctly, so it was created after these fixes.
### 8. COMPARISON WITH SIMILAR COMMITS
This commit follows the exact same pattern as:
- `bb4185e595e47`: "Add support for PCI device 0x156E" - Added pspv6 +
dev_vdata[8] + PCI ID
- `4aa0931be8f0a`: "Add support for PCI device 0x17E0" - Added
pspv5/teev2 + dev_vdata[7] + PCI ID
- `6cb345939b8cc`: "Add support for PCI device 0x1134" - Added PCI ID
only
- `63935e2ee1f2a`: "Add support for PCI device 0x17D8" - Added PCI ID
only
These similar device ID additions are routinely considered for stable
trees.

## Final Assessment
**Should this be backported?**
**YES**, for the following reasons:
1. **Falls under the NEW DEVICE ID exception** - explicitly allowed per
stable kernel rules for enabling real hardware
2. **Trivial, data-only change** - ~17 lines, no logic changes
3. **Uses existing, proven infrastructure** - teev2 exists, NULL
platform_access handling exists
4. **Follows established patterns** - identical to 10+ previous similar
commits in this driver
5. **Zero risk of regression** - only affects users with the specific
0x115A device
6. **Enables real hardware** - without this, users with this AMD
security processor cannot use it at all
7. **Properly reviewed** - Acked by AMD maintainer, merged by crypto
subsystem maintainer
**Concerns:**
- Requires stable tree to have v6.6+ (for teev2 structure)
- May need the bootloader_info_reg fixes backported first for
consistency (commits 52e8ae868a824 and 72942d6538564)
The change is obviously correct, well-tested (used same patterns as
existing code), and enables hardware support that users need. This is
exactly the type of device ID addition that stable trees accept.
**YES**
