Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 2 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [High] rpmb: virtio_rpmb_probe() erroneously divides max_wr by 2
- [Medium] virtio_rpmb: vr->vq published in virtio_rpmb_init_vq() before device ready

rpmb: add a virtio RPMB device driver
This commit adds a driver for virtio-rpmb devices (virtio ID 28) and registers
them with the RPMB subsystem as RPMB_TYPE_EMMC so in-kernel consumers such as
OP-TEE can use them.

[Severity: High]
Should descr.reliable_wr_count be set without dividing vr->max_wr by 2?
Each 256-byte RPMB data block is carried inside a single 512-byte
struct virtio_rpmb_frame, so one 256-byte RPMB block corresponds 1-to-1 with
one 512-byte RPMB frame/sector. This matches how virtio_rpmb_route_frames()
validates write requests against vr->max_wr:
case VIRTIO_RPMB_REQ_DATA_WRITE:
if (req_len % VIRTIO_RPMB_FRAME_SIZE ||
resp_len != VIRTIO_RPMB_FRAME_SIZE)
return -EINVAL;
if (vr->max_wr && req_len / VIRTIO_RPMB_FRAME_SIZE > vr->max_wr)
return -EINVAL;
When a virtio-rpmb device reports max_wr_cnt == 1, dividing vr->max_wr by 2
truncates descr.reliable_wr_count to 0. In-kernel consumers such as OP-TEE
receive rdev->descr.reliable_wr_count directly in
handle_rpc_func_rpmb_probe_next(), so reporting 0 makes the device unusable
for writes when max_wr_cnt is 1, and halves the maximum write count for larger
values.

[Severity: Medium]
Can virtio_rpmb_restore() allow virtio_rpmb_xfer() to kick the virtqueue
before the device is marked VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER_OK?
During freeze and restore, vr->rdev remains registered with the RPMB core, and
virtio_rpmb_xfer() uses vr->vq under vr->lock to check whether the device is
available:
mutex_lock(&vr->lock);
if (!vr->vq) {
ret = -ENODEV;
goto out;
}
ret = virtqueue_add_sgs(vr->vq, sgs, 1, 1, &req, GFP_KERNEL);
if (ret)
goto out;
virtqueue_kick(vr->vq);
wait_for_completion(&req.done);
In drivers/virtio/virtio.c, virtio_device_restore_priv() only calls
virtio_device_ready(dev) after drv->restore(dev) returns:
if (restore) {
if (drv->restore) {
ret = drv->restore(dev);
if (ret)
goto err;
}
...
/* If restore didn't do it, mark device DRIVER_OK ourselves. */
if (!(dev->config->get_status(dev) & VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER_OK))
virtio_device_ready(dev);
Because virtio_rpmb_init_vq() sets vr->vq = vq and releases vr->lock before
virtio_device_ready(vdev) is called, a concurrent rpmb_route_frames() ->
virtio_rpmb_route_frames() -> virtio_rpmb_xfer() call can observe a non-NULL
vr->vq and call virtqueue_add_sgs() and virtqueue_kick() before
VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER_OK is set (or while vq->broken is still true under
CONFIG_VIRTIO_HARDEN_NOTIFICATION).
Should virtio_device_ready(vr->vdev) be called inside virtio_rpmb_init_vq()
before publishing vr->vq under vr->lock?
