Subject: Re: [PATCH v5 0/2] KVM: arm64: Support FF-A direct messaging interfaces
Date: Thu, 30 Apr 2026 22:40:19 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <afPMQ29x5fjHwtDo@e129823.arm.com> (raw)

Hi Per,
May I ask how this patch is progressing?
Thanks!
> Support FFA_MSG_SEND_DIRECT_REQ unconditionally.
> Support FFA_MSG_SEND_DIRECT_REQ2 if hypervisor negotiated version 1.2+.
>
> Framework messages (FF-A control plane) are filtered out. For
> FFA_MSG_SEND_DIRECT_REQ, we look at flags in w2. Messages using the REQ2
> interface are always partition messages.
>
> The second patch was part of a previous patch set [0] but was dropped
> since the use case was unclear. A clear use case has now appeared: use
> TPM device with CRB over FF-A when kernel boots with pkvm [1].
>
> Tested by booting Android under QEMU.
