2024-05-29firmware: arm_ffa: Split bus and driver into distinct modulesSudeep Holla
Make the FF-A bus on its own as a distinct module initialized at subsys_initcall level when builtin. Keep the FF-A driver core stack, together with any configured transport, in a different module initialized as module_init level. FF-A drivers initialization is now changed to module_init level.

2021-05-26firmware: arm_ffa: Add support for SMCCC as transport to FFA driverSudeep Holla
There are requests to keep the transport separate in order to allow other possible transports like virtio. So let us keep the SMCCC transport specific routines abstracted. It is kept simple for now. Once we add another transport, we can develop better abstraction.

2021-05-26firmware: arm_ffa: Add initial Arm FFA driver supportSudeep Holla
This just add a basic driver that sets up the transport(e.g. SMCCC), checks the FFA version implemented, get the partition ID for self and sets up the Tx/Rx buffers for communication.

2021-05-26firmware: arm_ffa: Add initial FFA bus support for device enumerationSudeep Holla
The Arm FF for Armv8-A specification has concept of endpoints or partitions. In the Normal world, a partition could be a VM when the Virtualization extension is enabled or the kernel itself. In order to handle multiple partitions, we can create a FFA device for each such partition on a dedicated FFA bus. Similarly, different drivers requiring FFA transport can be registered on the same bus. We can match the device and drivers using UUID. This is mostly for the in-kernel users with FFA drivers.
