This patch adds support for the
Management Component Transport Protocol (MCTP)
over the Platform Communication Channel (PCC) mechanism.

I have included a cover letter to maintain continuity with the
previous set of patches that were submitted in series.

DMTF DSP:0292
https://www.dmtf.org/sites/default/files/standards/documents/\
DSP0292_1.0.0WIP50.pdf

MCTP defines a communication model intended to facilitate communication
between Management controllers and other management controllers, and
between Management controllers and management devices.

PCC is a mechanism for communication between components within the
Platform. It is a composed of shared memory regions, interrupt registers,
and status registers.

The MCTP over PCC driver makes use of two PCC channels. For sending
messages, it uses a Type 3 channel, and for receiving messages it uses
the paired Type 4 channel.  The device and corresponding channels are
specified via ACPI.

MCTP is a general purpose  protocol so it would  be impossible to
enumerate all the use cases, but some of the ones that are most topical
are attestation and RAS support.  There are a handful of protocols built
on top of MCTP, to include PLDM and SPDM, both specified by the DMTF.

https://www.dmtf.org/sites/default/files/standards/documents/DSP0240_1.0.0.pdf
https://www.dmtf.org/sites/default/files/standards/documents/DSP0274_1.3.0.pd

SPDM entails various usages, including device identity collection, device
authentication, measurement collection, and device secure session
establishment.

PLDM is more likely to be used for hardware support: temperature, voltage,
or fan sensor control.

At least two companies have devices that can make use of the mechanism.
One is Ampere Computing, my employer.

The mechanism it uses is called Platform Communication Channels is part of
the ACPI spec:
https://uefi.org/htmlspecs/ACPI_Spec_6_4_html/14_Platform_Communications_Channel/Platform_Comm_Channel.html

Since it is a socket interface, the system administrator also has the
ability to ignore an MCTP link that they do not want to enable. This link
would be visible to the end user, but would not be usable.

If MCTP support is disabled in the Kernel, this driver would also be disabled.

PCC is based on a shared buffer and a set of I/O mapped memory locations
that the Spec calls registers.  This mechanism exists regardless of the
existence of the driver. Thus, if the user has the ability to map these
physical location to virtual locations, they have the ability to drive the
hardware.  Thus, there is a security aspect to this mechanism that extends
beyond the responsibilities of the operating system.

If the hardware does not expose the PCC in the ACPI table, this device
will never be enabled. Thus it is only an issue on hard that does support
PCC. In that case, it is up to the remote controller to sanitize
communication; MCTP will be exposed as a socket interface, and userland
can send any crafted packet it wants. It would thus also be incumbent on
the hardware manufacturer to allow the end user to disable MCTP over PCC
communication if they did not want to expose it.

A Previous version of this patch series had a pre-requisite patch that
allows the PCC Mailbox to managed the PCC shared buffer.  That patch has
been reverted. Instead, the functionality was moved to helper functions
which are explicitly called by the MCTP driver.

Testing of the patch without hardware support can be done using a patched Qemu
and helper program.  The Qemu code can be pulled from
https://github.com/AmpereComputing/qemu-ampere-staging/tree/pcc
And the support code from
https://github.com/AmpereComputing/pccd

THe virtual machine can be run on ARM64 Hardware with the following command line:

../qemu/build/qemu-system-aarch64 \
        -machine virt \
        -enable-kvm \
        #additional parameters as you need for your machine

A running virtual machine with a Kernel with the applied patch can then be tested
using the mctp-client command line utility found here:
https://github.com/CodeConstruct/mctp/blob/main/src/mctp-client.c

To test run the following script:

EID=50
LINKID=2

modprobe -q mctp-pcc

PREFIX=mctppcc

LINK_STATUS=`mctp link | awk '/mctppcc/ {print $11}'`

if [ $LINK_STATUS = "down" ]
then
        mctp route add 50 via $PREFIX$LINKID
        mctp address add 15 dev $PREFIX$LINKID
        mctp link set $PREFIX$LINKID up
fi

test_mctp(){
	REQ_TYPE=$2
	REQ_DATA=$3
	TEST_NAME=$1
	EXPECTED_RESPONSE=$4

        # unccoment to debug
	echo mctp-client eid $EID type spdm data $REQ_DATA
	RESPONSE=$( mctp-client eid $EID type spdm data $REQ_DATA | tail -1 )

	if [ "$RESPONSE" = "$EXPECTED_RESPONSE" ]
	then
		echo -n ok
	else
		echo not ok
		echo EXPECT=:$EXPECTED_RESPONSE:
		echo ACTUAL=:$RESPONSE:
	fi
	echo  " - " $TEST_NAME
}

- replaced custom modules init and cleanup with ACPI version

Changes in V2

- All Variable Declarations are in reverse Xmass Tree Format
- All Checkpatch Warnings Are Fixed
- Removed Dead code
- Added packet tx/rx stats
- Removed network physical address.  This is still in
  disucssion in the spec, and will be added once there
  is consensus. The protocol can be used with out it.
  This also lead to the removal of the Big Endian
  conversions.
- Avoided using non volatile pointers in copy to and from io space
- Reorderd the patches to put the ACK check for the PCC Mailbox
  as a pre-requisite.  The corresponding change for the MCTP
  driver has been inlined in the main patch.
- Replaced magic numbers with constants, fixed typos, and other
  minor changes from code review.

Implementation of network driver for
Management Component Transport Protocol(MCTP)
over Platform Communication Channel(PCC)

DMTF DSP:0292
https://www.dmtf.org/sites/default/files/standards/documents/\
DSP0292_1.0.0WIP50.pdf

MCTP devices are specified via ACPI by entries in DSDT/SSDT and
reference channels specified in the PCCT. Messages are sent on a type
3 and received on a type 4 channel.  Communication with other devices
use the PCC based doorbell mechanism; a shared memory segment with a
corresponding interrupt and a memory register used to trigger remote
interrupts.

Unlike the existing PCC Type 2 based drivers, the mssg parameter to
mbox_send_msg is actively used. The data section of the struct sk_buff
that contains the outgoing packet is sent to the mailbox, already
properly formatted as a PCC exctended message.

If the mailbox ring buffer is full, the driver stops the incoming
packet queues until a message has been sent, freeing space in the
ring buffer.

When the Type 3 channel outbox receives a txdone response interrupt,
it consumes the outgoing sk_buff, allowing it to be freed.

Bringing up an interface creates the channel between the network driver
and the mailbox driver. This enables communication with the remote
endpoint, to include the receipt of new messages. Bringing down an
interface removes the channel, and no new messages can be delivered.
Stopping the interface also frees any packets that are cached in the
mailbox ringbuffer.

The "flaw"  is  not in the driver.  It seems to run fine on 7.0.0 and 
only breaks on stable 6.19.8  and .9.

It seems to run correctly on net-next/main, but I think there is a 
breakage in  mlx5 which makes it hard to test.

Regardless, I will resubmit with the cleaned up commit message once I do 
more debugging.
