Bean Huo <beanhuo@iokpp.de> says:
This patch series introduces OP-TEE based RPMB (Replay Protected
Memory Block) support for UFS devices, extending the kernel-level
secure storage capabilities that are currently available for eMMC
devices.
Previously, OP-TEE required a userspace supplicant to access RPMB
partitions, which created complex dependencies and reliability issues,
especially during early boot scenarios. Recent work by Linaro has
moved core supplicant functionality directly into the Linux kernel for
eMMC devices, eliminating userspace dependencies and enabling
immediate secure storage access. This series extends the same approach
to UFS devices, which are used in enterprise and mobile applications
that require secure storage capabilities.
Benefits:
- Eliminates dependency on userspace supplicant for UFS RPMB access
- Enables early boot secure storage access (e.g., fTPM, secure UEFI
variables)
- Provides kernel-level RPMB access as soon as UFS driver is
initialized
- Removes complex initramfs dependencies and boot ordering
requirements
- Ensures reliable and deterministic secure storage operations
- Supports both built-in and modular fTPM configurations.

Commit cf3fc03762 ("ata: libata-scsi: Fix ata_to_sense_error() status
handling") fixed ata_to_sense_error() to properly generate sense key
ABORTED COMMAND (without any additional sense code), instead of the
previous bogus sense key ILLEGAL REQUEST with the additional sense code
UNALIGNED WRITE COMMAND, for a failed command.
However, this broke suspend for Security locked drives (drives that have
Security enabled, and have not been Security unlocked by boot firmware).
The reason for this is that the SCSI disk driver, for the Synchronize
Cache command only, treats any sense data with sense key ILLEGAL REQUEST
as a successful command (regardless of ASC / ASCQ).
After commit cf3fc03762 ("ata: libata-scsi: Fix ata_to_sense_error()
status handling") the code that treats any sense data with sense key
ILLEGAL REQUEST as a successful command is no longer applicable, so the
command fails, which causes the system suspend to be aborted:
sd 1:0:0:0: PM: dpm_run_callback(): scsi_bus_suspend returns -5
sd 1:0:0:0: PM: failed to suspend async: error -5
PM: Some devices failed to suspend, or early wake event detected
To make suspend work once again, for a Security locked device only,
return sense data LOGICAL UNIT ACCESS NOT AUTHORIZED, the actual sense
data which a real SCSI device would have returned if locked.
The SCSI disk driver treats this sense data as a successful command.

Some embedded devices have the ability to control whether power is
provided to the disks via the SATA power connector or not. ACPI power
resources are usually off by default, thus making it unclear if the
specific power resource will retain its state after a restart. If power
resources are defined on ATA ports / devices in ACPI, we should stop the
disk on SYSTEM_RESTART, to ensure the disk will not lose power while
active.
Add a new function, ata_acpi_dev_manage_restart(), that will be used to
determine if a disk should be stopped before restarting the system. If a
usable ACPI power resource has been found, it is assumed that the disk
will lose power after a restart and should be stopped to avoid unclean
shutdown due to power loss.

Some embedded devices have the ability to control whether power is
provided to the disks via the SATA power connector or not. If power
resources are defined on ATA ports / devices in ACPI, we should try to
set the power state to D0 before probing the disk to ensure that any
power supply or power gate that may exist is providing power to the
disk.
An example for such devices would be newer synology NAS devices. Every
disk slot has its own SATA power connector. Whether the connector is
providing power is controlled via an gpio, which is *off by default*.
Also the disk loses power on reboots.
Add a new function, ata_acpi_port_power_on(), that will be used to power
on the SATA power connector if usable ACPI power resources on the
associated ATA port / device are found. It will be called right before
probing the port, therefore the disk will be powered on just in time.

Currently if a user enqueue a work item using schedule_delayed_work() the
used wq is "system_wq" (per-cpu wq) while queue_delayed_work() use
WORK_CPU_UNBOUND (used when a cpu is not specified). The same applies to
schedule_work() that is using system_wq and queue_work(), that makes use
again of WORK_CPU_UNBOUND.
This lack of consistency cannot be addressed without refactoring the API.
alloc_workqueue() treats all queues as per-CPU by default, while unbound
workqueues must opt-in via WQ_UNBOUND.
This default is suboptimal: most workloads benefit from unbound queues,
allowing the scheduler to place worker threads where they’re needed and
reducing noise when CPUs are isolated.
This continues the effort to refactor workqueue APIs, which began with
the introduction of new workqueues and a new alloc_workqueue flag in:
commit 128ea9f6cc ("workqueue: Add system_percpu_wq and system_dfl_wq")
commit 930c2ea566 ("workqueue: Add new WQ_PERCPU flag")
This change adds a new WQ_PERCPU flag to explicitly request
alloc_workqueue() to be per-cpu when WQ_UNBOUND has not been specified.
With the introduction of the WQ_PERCPU flag (equivalent to !WQ_UNBOUND),
any alloc_workqueue() caller that doesn’t explicitly specify WQ_UNBOUND
must now use WQ_PERCPU.
Once migration is complete, WQ_UNBOUND can be removed and unbound will
become the implicit default.

Commit 6d4405b16d ("ata: libata-core: Cache the general purpose log

to avoid repeated access to this log page during device scan. This
change also added a check on this log page to verify that the log page
version is 0x0001 as mandated by the ACS specifications.
And it turns out that some devices do not bother reporting this version,
instead reporting a version 0, resulting in error messages such as:
ata6.00: Invalid log directory version 0x0000
and to the device being marked as not supporting the general purpose log
directory log page.
Since before commit 6d4405b16d the log page version check did not
exist and things were still working correctly for these devices, relax
ata_read_log_directory() version check and only warn about the invalid
log page version number without disabling access to the log directory
page.

A key feature for the new bitmap are that the IO fastpath is

to update bitmap bit, no additional overhead for the following
writes.
By supporting only resync or recover written data, means in the

Commit 4edf1505b7 ("ata: ahci: Disallow LPM policy control for
external ports") introduced disabling link power management (LPM) for
ports that are advertized as external/hotplug capable. This is necessary
to force the maximum power policy (ATA_LPM_MAX_POWER) onto the port link
to ensure that the hotplug capability of the port is functional.
However, doing so blindly for all ports can prevent systems from going
into a low power state, even if the external/hotplug ports on the system
are unused. E.g., a laptop may see the internal SATA slot of a docking
station as an external hotplug capable port, and in such case, the user
may prefer to not use the port and to favor instead enabling LPM
to allow the laptop to transition to low power states.
Since there is no easy method to automatically detect such choice,
introduce the new mask_port_ext module parameter to allow a user to
ignore the external/hotplug capability of a port. The format for this
parameter value is identical to the format used for the mask_port_map
parameter: a mask can be defined for all AHCI adapters of a system or
for a particular adapters identified with their PCI IDs (bus:dev.func
format).
The function ahci_get_port_map_mask() is renamed to ahci_get_port_mask()
and modified to return a mask, either for the port map mask of an
adapter (to ignore ports) or for the external/hotplug capability of an
adapter. Differentiation between map_port_mask and map_port_ext_mask is
done by passing the parameter string to ahci_get_port_mask() as a second
argument.
To be consistent with this change, the function
ahci_apply_port_map_mask() is renamed ahci_port_mask() and changed to
return a mask value.
The mask for the external/hotplug capability for an adapter, if defined
by the map_port_ext_mask parameter, is stored in the new field
mask_port_ext of struct ahci_host_priv. ahci_mark_external_port() is
modified to not set the ATA_PFLAG_EXTERNAL flag for a port if
hpriv->mask_port_ext includes the number of the port. In such case,
an information message is printed to notify that the external/hotplug
capability is being ignored.

Delete extra checks for the ATA_DFLAG_CDL_ENABLED flag that prevent
SET FEATURES command from being issued to a drive when NCQ commands
are active.
ata_mselect_control_ata_feature() sets / clears the ATA_DFLAG_CDL_ENABLED
flag during the translation of MODE SELECT to SET FEATURES. If SET FEATURES
gets deferred due to outstanding NCQ commands, the original MODE SELECT
command will be re-queued. When the re-queued MODE SELECT goes through
the ata_mselect_control_ata_feature() translation again, SET FEATURES
will not be issued because ATA_DFLAG_CDL_ENABLED has been already set or
cleared by the initial translation of MODE SELECT.
The ATA_DFLAG_CDL_ENABLED checks in ata_mselect_control_ata_feature()
are safe to remove because scsi_cdl_enable() implements a similar logic
that avoids enabling CDL if it has been enabled already.

Commit 4371fe1ba4 ("ata: libata-eh: Avoid unnecessary resets when
revalidating devices") replaced the call to ata_phys_link_offline() in
ata_eh_revalidate_and_attach() with the new function
ata_eh_link_established() which relaxes the checks on a device link
state to account for low power mode transitions. However, this change
assumed that the device port has a valid scr_read method to obtain the
SStatus register for the port. This is not always the case, especially
with older IDE/PATA adapters (e.g. PATA/IDE devices emulated with QEMU).
For such adapter, ata_eh_link_established() will always return false,
causing ata_eh_revalidate_and_attach() to go into its error path and
ultimately to the device being disabled.
Avoid this by restoring the previous behavior, which is to assume that
the link is online if reading the port SStatus register fails.
While at it, also fix the spelling of SStatus in the comment describing
the function ata_eh_link_established().

A port link power management (LPM) policy can be controlled using the
link_power_management_policy sysfs host attribute. However, this
attribute exists also for hosts that do not support LPM and in such
case, attempting to change the LPM policy for the host (port) will fail
with -EOPNOTSUPP.
Introduce the new sysfs link_power_management_supported host attribute
to indicate to the user if a the port and the devices connected to the
port for the host support LPM, which implies that the
link_power_management_policy attribute can be used.
Since checking that a port and its devices support LPM is common between
the new ata_scsi_lpm_supported_show() function and the existing
ata_scsi_lpm_store() function, the new helper ata_scsi_lpm_supported()
is introduced.

ata_gen_ata_sense() is always called for a failed qc missing sense data
so that a sense key, code and code qualifier can be generated using
ata_to_sense_error() from the qc status and error fields of its result
task file. However, if the qc does not have its result task file filled,
ata_gen_ata_sense() returns early without setting a sense key.
Improve this by defaulting to returning ABORTED COMMAND without any
additional sense code, since we do not know the reason for the failure.
The same fix is also applied in ata_gen_passthru_sense() with the
additional check that the qc failed (qc->err_mask is set).

Commit 8ae720449f ("libata: whitespace fixes in ata_to_sense_error()")
inadvertantly added the entry 0x40 (ATA_DRDY) to the stat_table array in
the function ata_to_sense_error(). This entry ties a failed qc which has
a status filed equal to ATA_DRDY to the sense key ILLEGAL REQUEST with
the additional sense code UNALIGNED WRITE COMMAND. This entry will be
used to generate a failed qc sense key and sense code when the qc is
missing sense data and there is no match for the qc error field in the
sense_table array of ata_to_sense_error().
As a result, for a failed qc for which we failed to get sense data (e.g.
read log 10h failed if qc is an NCQ command, or REQUEST SENSE EXT
command failed for the non-ncq case, the user very often end up seeing
the completely misleading "unaligned write command" error, even if qc
was not a write command. E.g.:
sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] tag#12 FAILED Result: hostbyte=DID_OK driverbyte=DRIVER_OK cmd_age=0s
sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] tag#12 Sense Key : Illegal Request [current]
sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] tag#12 Add. Sense: Unaligned write command
sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] tag#12 CDB: Read(10) 28 00 00 00 10 00 00 00 08 00
I/O error, dev sda, sector 4096 op 0x0:(READ) flags 0x80700 phys_seg 1 prio class 0
Fix this by removing the ATA_DRDY entry from the stat_table array so
that we default to always returning ABORTED COMMAND without any
additional sense code, since we do not know any better. The entry 0x08
(ATA_DRQ) is also removed since signaling ABORTED COMMAND with a parity
error is also misleading (as a parity error would likely be signaled
through a bus error). So for this case, also default to returning
ABORTED COMMAND without any additional sense code. With this, the
previous example error case becomes:
sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] tag#17 FAILED Result: hostbyte=DID_OK driverbyte=DRIVER_OK cmd_age=0s
sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] tag#17 Sense Key : Aborted Command [current]
sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] tag#17 Add. Sense: No additional sense information
sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] tag#17 CDB: Read(10) 28 00 00 00 10 00 00 00 08 00
I/O error, dev sda, sector 4096 op 0x0:(READ) flags 0x80700 phys_seg 1 prio class 0
Together with these fixes, refactor stat_table to make it more readable
by putting the entries comments in front of the entries and using the
defined status bits macros instead of hardcoded values.

Introduce struct ata_reset_operations to aggregate in a single structure
the definitions of the 4 reset methods (prereset, softreset, hardreset
and postreset) for a port. This new structure is used in struct ata_port
to define the reset methods for a regular port (reset field) and for a

The only reason for ata_do_eh() to exist is that the two caller sites,
ata_std_error_handler() and ata_sff_error_handler() may pass it a
NULL hardreset operation so that the built-in (generic) hardreset
operation for a driver is ignored if the adapter SCR access is not
available.
However, ata_std_error_handler() and ata_sff_error_handler()
modifications of the hardreset port operation can easily be combined as
they are mutually exclusive. That is, a driver using sata_std_hardreset()
as its hardreset operation cannot use sata_sff_hardreset() and
vice-versa.
With this observation, ata_do_eh() can be removed and its code moved to
ata_std_error_handler(). The condition used to ignore the built-in
hardreset port operation is modified to be the one that was used in
ata_sff_error_handler(). This requires defining a stub for the function
sata_sff_hardreset() to avoid compilation errors when CONFIG_ATA_SFF is
not enabled. Furthermore, instead of modifying the local hardreset
operation definition, set the ATA_LFLAG_NO_HRST link flag to prevent
the use of built-in hardreset methods for ports without a valid scr_read
function. This flag is checked in ata_eh_reset() and if set, the
hardreset method is ignored.
This change simplifies ata_sff_error_handler() as this function now only
needs to call ata_std_error_handler().

sprintf, snprintf, and scnprintf do not consider the PAGE_SIZE maximum
of the temporary buffer used for outputting sysfs content and they may
overrun the PAGE_SIZE buffer length.
To avoid output defects with the ATA transport class simple attributes,
use sysfs_emit instead of scnprintf().

The function ata_log_supported() tests if a log page is supported by a
device using the General Purpose Log Directory log page, which lists the
size of all surported log pages. However, this log page is read from the
device using ata_read_log_page() every time ata_log_supported() is
called. That is not necessary.
Avoid reading the General Purpose Log Directory log page by caching its
content in the gp_log_dir buffer defined as part of struct ata_device.
The functions ata_read_log_directory() and ata_clear_log_directory() are
introduced to manage this buffer. ata_clear_log_directory() zero-fill
the gp_log_dir buffer every time ata_dev_configure() is called, that is,
when the device is first scanned and when it is being revalidated.
The function ata_log_supported() is modified to call
ata_read_log_directory() instead of ata_read_log_page().
The function ata_read_log_directory() calls ata_read_log_page() to read
the General Purpose Log Directory log page from the device only if the
first 16-bits word of the log is not equal to 0x0001, that is, it is not
equal to the ACS mandated value for the log version.
With this, the log page is read from the device only once for every
ata_dev_configure() call. For instance, with pr_debug enabled, a call
to ata_dev_configure() before this patch generates the following log
page accesses:
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x0, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x13, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x0, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x12, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x0, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x30, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x30, page 0x8
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x0, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x0, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x0, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x30, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x0, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x30, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x30, page 0x3
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x30, page 0x4
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x18, page 0x0
That is, the general purpose log directory page is read 7 times.
With this patch applied, the number of accesses to this log page is
reduced to one:
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x0, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x13, page 0x0
ata3.00: read log page - log 0x12, page 0x0

ata_dev_config_lpm() prints the message "LPM support broken, forcing
max_power" for devices that have the ATA_QUIRK_NOLPM quirk flag set.
This messages is repeated for every device revalidation, which is not
necessary, but also erroneously printed for devices without a broken LPM
support when connected to a port that does not support LPM (e.g. because
the port is an external one with hotplug capability).
Since in all cases the device port target_lpm_policy is set to
ATA_LPM_MAX_POWER, avoid the "LPM broken" message repetition and
erroneous output by generating it only if the port target_lpm_policy is
not already set to ATA_LPM_MAX_POWER.
This change will suppress the "LPM broken" message for genuine cases of
a device having broken LPM if the initial LPM policy is set to
ATA_LPM_MAX_POWER through CONFIG_SATA_MOBILE_LPM_POLICY. This is not a
problem as the ATA_LPM_MAX_POWER policy implies that LPM is disabled and
unused, which is safe for devices with broken LPM.

Commit fa997b0576 ("ata: ahci: Do not enable LPM if no LPM states are
supported by the HBA") introduced an early return in
ahci_update_initial_lpm_policy() to ensure that the target_lpm_policy
of ports belonging to a host that does not support the Partial, Slumber
and DevSleep power states is unchanged and remains set to
ATA_LPM_UNKNOWN and thus prevents the execution of
ata_eh_link_set_lpm().
However, a user or a system daemon (e.g. systemd-udevd) may still
attempt changing the LPM policy through the sysfs
link_power_management_policy of the host.
Improve this to prevent sysfs LPM policy changes by setting the flag
ATA_FLAG_NO_LPM for the port of such host, and initialize the port
target_lpm_policy to ATA_LPM_MAX_POWER to guarantee that no unsupported
low power state is being used on the port and its link.

Commit ae1f3db006 ("ata: ahci: do not enable LPM on external ports")
added an early return in ahci_update_initial_lpm_policy() for all
ports flagged as external with the ATA_PFLAG_EXTERNAL port flag (e.g.
eSATA ports or hotplug capable ports) so that the target_lpm_policy of
these ports is unchanged and set to ATA_LPM_UNKNOWN. thus forcing libata
EH to not be called for external port. The goal of this change is to
preserve the initial power management policy to not break the hotplug
capability of external ports.
However, this change is incomplete as users or system daemon (e.g.
systemd-udevd) can still apply the system preferred power management
policy through sysfs, thus potentially unknowingly breaking the port
hotplug capability.
Modify ahci_update_initial_lpm_policy() to flag external ports with
ATA_FLAG_NO_LPM to prevent changes to the LPM policy by users through
the sysfs link_power_management_policy host attribute. Also set the
target_lpm_policy of external ports to ATA_LPM_MAX_POWER to ensure
that the port is not in a low power state preventing hotplug operations.
Since commit 439d47608b ("ata: libata: Print if port is external on
boot") introduced an unconditional print on port probe signaling that a
port is external, the debug message signaling that fact and that LPM
will not be enabled is removed.

If CAP.SSC or CAP.PSC is cleared to ‘0’, software should disable

In ata_eh_revalidate_and_attach(), a link LPM policy is always
set to ATA_LPM_MAX_POWER before calling ata_dev_revalidate() to ensure
that the call to ata_phys_link_offline() does not return true, thus
causing an unnecessary device reset. This change was introduced
with commit 71d7b6e51a ("ata: libata-eh: avoid needless hard reset
when revalidating link").
However, setting the link LPM policy to ATA_LPM_MAX_POWER may be
visible only after some time, depending on the power state the link was
in. E.g. transitioning out of the Partial state should take no longer
than a few microseconds, but transitioning out of the Slumber or
DevSleep state may take several milliseconds. So despite the changes
introduced with commit 71d7b6e51a ("ata: libata-eh: avoid needless
hard reset when revalidating link"), we can still endup with
ata_phys_link_offline() seeing a link SCR_STATUS register signaling that
the device is present (DET is equal to 1h) but that the link PHY is
still in a low power mode (e.g. IPM is 2h, signaling "Interface in
Partial power management state"). In such cases, ata_phys_link_offline()
returns true, causing an EIO return for ata_eh_revalidate_and_attach()
and a device reset.
Avoid such unnecessary device resets by introducing a relaxed version
of the link offline test implemented by ata_phys_link_offline() with
the new helper function ata_eh_link_established(). This functions
returns true if for the link SCR_STATUS register we see that:
- A device is still present, that is, the DET field is 1h (Device
presence detected but Phy communication not established) or 3h
(Device presence detected and Phy communication established).
- Communication is established, that is, the IPM field is not 0h,
indicating that the PHY is online or in a low power state.
