Here is the expected protected content buffer flow in DRM:
1) userspace allocates a dma-buf FD from the "restricted_mtk_cma" by
DMA_HEAP_IOCTL_ALLOC.
2) userspace imports that dma-buf into the device using prime for the
drm_file.
3) userspace uses the already implemented driver import code for the
special cases of protected content buffer.

What is so special on that case?


In the step 3), we need to verify the dma-buf is allocated from
"restricted_mtk_cma", but there is no way to pass the secure flag or
private data from userspace to the import interface in DRM driver.

Why do you need to verify that?


So I can only verify it like this now:
struct drm_gem_object *mtk_gem_prime_import_sg_table(struct drm_device
*dev, struct dma_buf_attachment *attach, struct sg_table *sg)
{
    struct mtk_gem_obj *mtk_gem;

    /* check if the entries in the sg_table are contiguous */
    if (drm_prime_get_contiguous_size(sg) < attach->dmabuf->size) {
        DRM_ERROR("sg_table is not contiguous");
        return ERR_PTR(-EINVAL);
    }
    mtk_gem = mtk_gem_init(dev, attach->dmabuf->size);
    if (IS_ERR(mtk_gem))
        return ERR_CAST(mtk_gem);

+   mtk_gem->secure = (!strncmp(attach->dmabuf->exp_name, "restricted",
10));
    mtk_gem->dma_addr = sg_dma_address(sg->sgl);
    mtk_gem->size = attach->dmabuf->size;
    mtk_gem->sg = sg;

    return &mtk_gem->base;
}

Complete NAK from my side to that approach. Importing of a DMA-buf should be independent of the exporter.

What you could do is to provide the secure buffer from a device and not a device heap.

I think I have the same problem as the ECC_FLAG mention in:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-media/20240515-dma-buf-ecc-heap-v1-0-54cbbd049511@kernel.org/

I think it would be better to have the user configurable private
information in dma-buf, so all the drivers who have the same
requirement can get their private information from dma-buf directly and
no need to change or add the interface.

What's your opinion in this point?

Well of hand I don't see the need for that.

What happens if you get a non-secure buffer imported in your secure device?

Christian.
