The version is obtained via a dedicated MKHI GSC HECI command. The compatibility version is what we want to match against for the GSC, so we need to call the FW version checker after obtaining the version. Since this is the first time we send a GSC HECI command via the GSCCS, this patch also introduces common infrastructure to send such commands to the GSC. Communication with the GSC FW is done via input/output buffers, whose addresses are provided via a GSCCS command. The buffers contain a generic header and a client-specific packet (e.g. PXP, HDCP); the clients don't care about the header format and/or the GSCCS command in the batch, they only care about their client-specific header. This patch therefore introduces helpers that allow the callers to automatically fill in the input header, submit the GSCCS job and decode the output header, to make it so that the caller only needs to worry about their client-specific input and output messages. v3: squash of 2 separate patches ahead of merge, so that the common functions and their first user are added at the same time Signed-off-by: Daniele Ceraolo Spurio <daniele.ceraolospurio@intel.com> Cc: Alan Previn <alan.previn.teres.alexis@intel.com> Cc: Suraj Kandpal <suraj.kandpal@intel.com> Cc: John Harrison <John.C.Harrison@Intel.com> Reviewed-by: John Harrison <John.C.Harrison@Intel.Com> #v1 Reviewed-by: Suraj Kandpal <suraj.kandpal@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rodrigo Vivi <rodrigo.vivi@intel.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
