Move common macros and structures from drivers/pci/doe.c to
drivers/pci/pci.h to allow reuse across root complex and
endpoint DOE implementations.
PCI_DOE_MAX_LENGTH macro can be used outside the PCI core as well,
hence move the macro to include/linux/pci-doe.h.
These changes prepare the groundwork for the DOE endpoint implementation
that will reuse these common definitions.

Changes from v2 to v3:
- Rebased on 7.1-rc1.
Changes since v1:
- Moved the common macros that need not be visible outside the PCI core
to drivers/pci/pci.h instead to include/linux/pci-doe.h as suggested
by Lukas Wunner
- Removed the redundant empty inlines guarded with CONFIG_PCI_DOE in
include/linux/pci-doe.h.

DOE (Data Object Exchange) is a standard PCIe extended capability
feature introduced in the Data Object Exchange (DOE) ECN for
PCIe r5.0. It provides a communication mechanism primarily used for
implementing PCIe security features such as device authentication, and
secure link establishment. Think of DOE as a sophisticated mailbox
system built into PCIe. The root complex can send structured requests
to the endpoint device through DOE mailboxes, and the endpoint device
responds with appropriate data.
Add the DOE support for PCIe endpoint devices, enabling endpoint
functions to process the DOE requests from the host. The implementation
provides framework APIs for EPC core driver and controller drivers to
register mailboxes, and request processing with workqueues ensuring
sequential handling per mailbox, and parallel handling across mailboxes.
The Discovery protocol is handled internally by the DOE core.
This implementation complements the existing DOE implementation for
root complex in drivers/pci/doe.c.

Changes from v2 to v3:
- Rebased on 7.1-rc1.
Changes since v1:
- Moved the DOE-EP core file to drivers/pci/endpoint/pci-ep-doe.c, and
corresponding Kconfig and Makefile to match the existing naming scheme,
as suggested by Niklas Cassel.
- Renamed the config from PCI_DOE_EP to PCI_ENDPOINT_DOE
- Moved the function declarations that need not be visible outside the
PCI core to drivers/pci/pci.h instead to include/linux/pci-doe.h as
suggested by Lukas Wunner
- Converted from synchronous to asynchronous request processing:
* Removed wait_for_completion() from pci_ep_doe_process_request()
* Function returns immediately after queuing to workqueue, hence
removed private data for completion in the task structure
* Added completion callback as an additional argument to
pci_ep_doe_process_request(), which takes the response and status
parameters as arguments (along with other required arguments), hence
removed task_status in the task structure
* Created a typedef pci_ep_doe_complete_t for completion callback
* Removed the pci_ep_doe_task_complete() function, as it would not be
required anymore with these changes
* Moved from INIT_WORK_ONSTACK() to INIT_WORK(), to initialize the work
on heap instead of stack
* signal_task_complete() now invokes the completion callback, once the
protocol handler completes its task
- Changed from dynamic xarray-based protocol registration to static array:
* Removed the register/unregister protocol APIs
* Replaced the dynamic xarray with static array of struct pci_doe_protocol
* Added discovery protocol to static array, instead of treating it specially,
hence removed the special handling for Discovery protocol in
doe_ep_task_work()
* Updated pci_ep_doe_handle_discovery() and pci_ep_doe_find_protocol()
accordingly.
- Memory Management:
* DOE core frees request buffer in signal_task_complete()
or during error handling
* pci_ep_doe_process_request() defines response_pl and response_pl_sz
as NULL and 0 respectively, whose pointer is passed to the protocol
handler, hence removed the arguments void **response, size_t *response_sz
to this function.
- Task structure refactoring:
* Response buffer: void **response_pl to void *response_pl
* Response size: size_t *response_pl_sz to size_t response_pl_sz
* Changed the completion callback to type pci_ep_doe_complete_t
* Removed void *private and int task_status
- Updated documentation comments of the functions according to the changes

Add pci_epc_setup_doe() API in EPC core driver to initialize and setup
the DOE framework for an endpoint controller. The API discovers the DOE
capabilities (extended capability ID 0x2E), and registers each discovered
DOE mailbox for all the functions in the endpoint controller. This API
should be invoked by the controller driver during probe based on the
doe_capable feature.
Add pci_epc_destroy_doe() API in EPC core driver for cleanup of DOE
resources, which should be invoked by the controller driver during
controller cleanup based on the doe_capable feature.

Changes from v2 to v3:
- Rebased on 7.1-rc1.
Changes since v1:
- Squashed the patches [1] and [2], and moved the documentation file
to Documentation/PCI/endpoint/pci-endpoint-doe.rst to match the existing
naming scheme, as suggested by Niklas Cassel
- Updated the documentation as per the design and implementaion changes
made to previous patches in this series:
* Updated for static protocol array instead of dynamic registration
* Documented asynchronous callback model
* Updated request/response flow with new callback signature
* Updated memory ownership: DOE core frees request, driver frees response
* Updated initialization and cleanup sections for new APIs

+Data Object Exchange (DOE) for PCIe Endpoint
+=============================================

+:Author: Aksh Garg <a-garg7@ti.com>
+:Co-Author: Siddharth Vadapalli <s-vadapalli@ti.com>
+
+Overview
+========
+
+DOE (Data Object Exchange) is a standard PCIe extended capability feature
+introduced in the Data Object Exchange (DOE) ECN for PCIe r5.0. It is an optional
+mechanism for system firmware/software running on root complex (host) to perform
+:ref:`data object <data-object-term>` exchanges with an endpoint function. Each
+data object is uniquely identified by the Vendor ID of the vendor publishing the
+data object definition and a Data Object Type value assigned by that vendor.
+
+Think of DOE as a sophisticated mailbox system built into PCIe. The root complex
+can send structured requests to the endpoint device through DOE mailboxes, and
+the endpoint device responds with appropriate data. DOE mailboxes are implemented
+as PCIe Extended Capabilities in endpoint devices, allowing multiple mailboxes
+per function, each potentially supporting different data object protocols.
+
+The DOE support for root complex devices has already been implemented in
+``drivers/pci/doe.c``.
+
+How DOE Works
+=============
+
+The DOE mailbox operates through a simple request-response model:
+
+1. **Host sends request**: The root complex writes a data object (vendor ID, type,
+ and payload) to the DOE write mailbox register (one DWORD at a time) of the
+ endpoint function's config space and sets the GO bit in the DOE Status register
+ to indicate that a request is ready for processing.
+2. **Endpoint processes**: The endpoint function reads the request from DOE write
+ mailbox register, sets the BUSY bit in the DOE Status register, identifies the
+ protocol of the data object, and executes the appropriate handler.
+3. **Endpoint responds**: The endpoint function writes the response data object to the
+ DOE read mailbox register (one DWORD at a time), and sets the READY bit in the DOE
+ Status register to indicate that the response is ready. If an error occurs during
+ request processing (such as unsupported protocol or handler failure), the endpoint
+ sets the ERROR bit in the DOE Status register instead of the READY bit.
+4. **Host reads response**: The root complex retrieves the response data from the DOE read
+ mailbox register once the READY bit is set in the DOE Status register, and then writes
+ any value to this register to indicate a successful read. If the ERROR bit was set,
+ the root complex discards the response and performs error handling as needed.
+
+Each mailbox operates independently and can handle one transaction at a time. The
+DOE specification supports data objects of size up to 256KB (2\ :sup:`18` dwords).
+
+For complete DOE capability details, refer to `PCI Express Base Specification Revision 7.0,
+Section 6.30 - Data Object Exchange (DOE)`.
+
+Key Terminologies
+=================
+
+.. _data-object-term:
+
+**Data Object**
+ A structured, vendor-defined, or standard-defined message exchanged between
+ root complex and endpoint function via DOE capability registers in configuration
+ space of the function.
+
+**Mailbox**
+ A DOE capability on the endpoint device, where each physical function can have
+ multiple mailboxes.
+
+**Protocol**
+ A specific type of DOE communication data object identified by a Vendor ID and Type.
+
+**Handler**
+ A function that processes DOE requests of a specific protocol and generates responses.

+
+Initialization and Cleanup
+--------------------------
+
+**Framework Initialization and DOE Setup**
+
+The EPC core provides the ``pci_epc_doe_setup(epc)`` API for centralized DOE
+mailbox discovery and registration. The controller driver calls this API during
+its probe sequence if DOE is supported.
+
+This API performs the following steps:
+
+1. Calls ``pci_ep_doe_init(epc)``, which initializes the xarray data structure
+ (a resizable array data structure defined in linux) named ``doe_mbs`` that
+ stores metadata of DOE mailboxes for the controller in ``struct pci_epc``.
+2. Discovers all DOE capabilities in the endpoint function's configuration space
+ for each function. For each discovered DOE capability, calls
+ ``pci_ep_doe_add_mailbox(epc, func_no, cap_offset)`` to register the mailbox.
+
+Each DOE mailbox structure created by ``pci_ep_doe_add_mailbox()`` gets an
+ordered workqueue allocated for processing DOE requests sequentially for that
+mailbox, enabling concurrent request handling across different mailboxes. Each
+mailbox is uniquely identified by the combination of physical function number
+and capability offset for that controller.
+
+**Cleanup**
+
+The EPC core provides the ``pci_epc_doe_destroy(epc)`` API for centralized DOE
+cleanup. The controller driver calls this API during its remove sequence
+if DOE is supported.
+
+This API calls ``pci_ep_doe_destroy(epc)``, which destroys all registered
+mailboxes, cancels any pending tasks, flushes and destroys the workqueues,
+and frees all memory allocated to the mailboxes.
+
+Protocol Handler Support
+------------------------
+
+Protocol implementations (such as CMA, SPDM, or vendor-specific protocols) are
+supported through a static array of protocol handlers.
+
+When a new DOE protocol library is introduced, its handler function is added to
+the static ``pci_doe_protocols`` array in ``drivers/pci/endpoint/pci-ep-doe.c``.
+The discovery protocol (VID = 0x0001 (PCI-SIG vendor ID), Type = 0x00 (discovery
+protocol)) is included in this static array and handled internally by the
+DOE EP core.
+
+Request Handling
+----------------
+
+The complete flow of a DOE request from the root complex to the response:
+
+**Step 1: Root Complex → EP Controller Driver**
+
+The root complex writes a DOE request (Vendor ID, Type, and Payload) to the
+DOE write mailbox register in the endpoint function's configuration space and sets
+the GO bit in the DOE Control register, indicating that the request is ready for
+processing.
+
+**Step 2: EP Controller Driver → DOE EP Core**
+
+The controller driver reads the request header to determine the data object
+length. Based on this length field, it allocates a request buffer in memory
+(DDR) of the appropriate size. The driver then reads the complete request
+payload from the DOE write mailbox register and converts the data from
+little-endian format (the format followed in the PCIe transactions over the
+link) to CPU-native format using ``le32_to_cpu()``. The driver defines a
+completion callback function with signature ``void (*complete)(u8 func_no,
+u16 cap_offset, int status, u16 vendor, u8 type, void *response_pl,
+size_t response_pl_sz)`` to be invoked when the request processing completes.
+The driver then calls ``pci_ep_doe_process_request(epc, func_no, cap_offset,
+vendor, type, request, request_sz, complete)`` to hand off the request to the
+DOE EP core. This function returns immediately after queuing the work
+(without blocking), and the driver sets the BUSY bit in the DOE Status register.
+
+**Step 3: DOE EP Core Processing**
+
+The DOE EP core creates a task structure and submits it to the mailbox's ordered
+workqueue. This ensures that requests for each mailbox are processed
+sequentially, one at a time, as required by the DOE specification. It looks up
+the protocol handler based on the Vendor ID and Type from the request header,
+and executes the handler function.
+
+**Step 4: Protocol Handler Execution**
+
+The workqueue executes the task by calling the registered protocol handler:
+``handler(request, request_sz, &response, &response_sz)``. The handler processes
+the request, allocates a response buffer in memory (DDR), builds the response
+data, and returns the response pointer and size. For the discovery protocol,
+the DOE EP core handles this directly without invoking an external handler.
+
+**Step 5: DOE EP Core → EP Controller Driver**
+
+After the protocol handler completes, the DOE EP core frees the request buffer,
+and invokes the completion callback provided by the controller driver asynchronously.
+The callback receives the function number, capability offset (to identify the mailbox),
+status code indicating the result of request processing, vendor ID and type of the data
+object, the response buffer, and its size.
+
+**Step 6: EP Controller Driver → Root Complex**
+
+The controller driver converts the response from CPU-native format to
+little-endian format using ``cpu_to_le32()``, writes the response to DOE read
+mailbox register, and sets the READY bit in the DOE Status register. The root
+complex then reads the response from the read mailbox register. Finally, the controller
+driver frees the response buffer (which the handler allocated).
+
+Asynchronous Request Processing
+-------------------------------
+
+The DOE-EP framework implements asynchronous request processing because an
+endpoint function can have multiple instances of DOE mailboxes, and requests may
+be interleaved across these mailboxes. Request processing of one mailbox should
+not result in blocking request processing of other mailboxes. Hence, requests
+on each mailbox need to be handled in parallel for optimization.
+
+For the EP controller driver to handle requests on multiple mailboxes in
+parallel, ``pci_ep_doe_process_request()`` must be asynchronous. The function
+returns immediately after submitting the request to the mailbox's workqueue,
+without waiting for the request to complete. A completion callback provided by
+the controller driver is invoked asynchronously when request processing
+finishes. This asynchronous design enables concurrent processing of requests
+across different mailboxes.
+
+Abort Handling
+--------------
+
+The DOE specification allows the root complex to abort ongoing DOE operations
+by setting the ABORT bit in the DOE Control register.
+
+**Trigger**
+
+When the root complex sets the ABORT bit, the EP controller driver detects this
+condition (typically in an interrupt handler or register polling routine). The
+action taken depends on the timing of the abort:
+
+- **ABORT during request transfer**: If the ABORT bit is set while the root complex
+ is still transferring the request to the mailbox registers, the controller driver
+ discards the request and no call to ``pci_ep_doe_abort()`` is needed.
+
+- **ABORT after request submission**: If the ABORT bit is set after the request
+ has been fully received and submitted to the DOE EP core via
+ ``pci_ep_doe_process_request()``, the controller driver must call
+ ``pci_ep_doe_abort(epc, func_no, cap_offset)`` for the affected mailbox to
+ perform abort sequence in the DOE EP core.
+
+**Abort Sequence**
+
+The abort function performs the following actions:
+
+1. Sets the CANCEL flag on the mailbox to prevent queued requests from starting
+2. Flushes the workqueue to wait for any currently executing handler to complete
+ (handlers cannot be interrupted mid-execution)
+3. Clears the CANCEL flag to allow the mailbox to accept new requests
+
+Queued requests that have not started execution will be aborted with an error
+status. The currently executing request will complete normally, and the controller
+will reject the response if it arrives after the abort sequence has been triggered.
+
+.. note::
+ Independent of when the ABORT bit is triggered, the controller driver must
+ clear the ERROR, BUSY, and READY bits in the DOE Status register after
+ completing the abort operation to reset the mailbox to an idle state.
+
+Error Handling
+--------------
+
+Errors can occur during DOE request processing for various reasons, such as
+unsupported protocols, handler failures, or memory allocation failures.
+
+**Error Detection**
+
+When an error occurs during DOE request processing, the DOE EP core propagates this error
+back to the controller driver either through the ``pci_ep_doe_process_request()`` return value,
+or the status code passed to the completion callback.
+
+**Error Response**
+
+When the controller driver receives an error code, it sets the ERROR bit in the DOE Status
+register instead of writing a response to the read mailbox register, and frees the buffers.
