How does this mesh with other modifiers, like AFBC? That's where I see the issue here.
AFBC modifiers are currently under Arm's namespace, the thought behind the DRM modifiers would be to have it as a "generic" modifier.
But if it's a generic flag, how do you combine that with other modifiers? Like if you have a tiled buffer, but also encrypted? Or afbc compressed, or whatever else. I'd expect for your hw encryption is orthogonal to the buffer/tiling/compression format used?
This bit doesn't overlap with any of the other AFBC modifiers, so as you say it'd be orthogonal, and could be set on AFBC buffers (if we went that route).

- Just track this as part of buffer allocation, i.e. I think it does
matter how you allocate these protected buffers. We could add a "is protected buffer" flag at the dma_buf level for this.
I also like this approach. The protected-ness is a property of the allocation, so makes sense to store it with the allocation IMO.
So yeah for this stuff here I think we do want the full userspace side, from allocator to rendering something into this protected buffers (no need to also have the entire "decode a protected bitstream part" imo, since that will freak people out). Unfortunately, in my experience, that kills it for upstream :-/ But also in my experience of looking into this for other gpu's, we really need to have the full picture here to make sure we're not screwing this up.
Maybe Ayan could've been a bit clearer in his message, but the ask here is for ideas on how userspace "communicates" (stores?) the fact that the buffers are protected to the kernel driver. In our display processor we need to the the hardware that the buffers are protected before it tries to fetch them so that it can 1) enable the additional hardware signaling that sets the protection around the stream; and 2) read the protected buffers in a special mode where there the magic happens.
That was clear, but for the full picture we also need to know how these buffers are produced and where they are allocated. One approach would be to have a dma-buf heap that gives you encrypted buffers back. With that we need to make sure that only encryption-aware drivers allow such buffers to be imported, and the entire problem becomes a kernel-internal one - aside from allocating the right kind of buffer at the right place.
In our case, we'd be supporting a system like TZMP-1, there's a Linaro connect presentation on it here: https://connect.linaro.org/resources/hkg18/hkg18-408/
The simplest way to implement this is for firmware to set up a carveout which it tells linux is secure. A linux allocator (ion, gem, vb2, whatever) can allocate from this carveout, and tag the buffer as secure.
In this kind of system, linux doesn't necessarily need to know anything about how buffers are protected, or what HW is capable of - it only needs to carry around the "is_protected" flag.
Here, the TEE is ultimately responsible for deciding which HW gets access to a buffer. I don't see a benefit of having linux decide which drivers can or cannot import a buffer, because that decision should be handled by the TEE.
For proving out the pipeline, IMO it doesn't matter whether the buffers are protected or not. For our DPU, all that matters is that if the buffer claims to be protected, we have to set our protected control bit. Nothing more. AFAIK it should work the same for other TZMP-1 implementations.
So yeah, we know we do want full userspace support, we're prodding the community on answers on how to best let the kernel side know what userspace has done.
Actually this is interesting for other multimedia SoCs implementing secure video decode paths where video buffers are allocated and managed by a trusted app.
Yeah I expect there's more than just arm wanting this. I also wonder how that interacts with the secure memory allocator that was bobbing around on dri-devel for a while, but seems to not have gone anywhere. That thing implemented my idea of "secure memory is only allocated by a special entity". -Daniel
Like I said, for us all we need is a way to carry around a 1-bit "is_protected" flag with a buffer. Could other folks share what's needed for their systems so we can reason about something that works for all?
To make things a bit more specific, we are thinking of the following patch :-

I suppose. At the moment, we don't really have a need for it since we only our IPs support our encryption scheme and if we share buffers between we can get to the secure status when we look up the amdgpu buffer object internally in the kernel side. Still might be useful for cases where secure buffers get shared across drivers so we have a generic check for secure status.

The way 'is_protected' flag gets used to allocate secure/protected/encrypted buffers will be vendor specific.
Please comment to let us know if it looks useful to non Arm folks.
Thanks! -Brian
