[PATCH v4 0/2] ufs: rpmb: make RPMB usable with OP-TEE key derivation

[Jorge Ramirez-Ortiz]

This series makes UFS RPMB work out of the box with an OP-TEE that
implements the standard eMMC RPMB key-derivation flow, without requiring
any fundamental changes on the OP-TEE side.

RPMB provides an authenticated, replay-protected storage area whose
security relies on a secret authentication key. In our setup that key is
never exposed to the kernel: OP-TEE derives it in the secure world from
its hardware-unique key and a device identifier (dev_id) that the RPMB
core hands down. OP-TEE's implementation targets eMMC, where dev_id is
the 16-byte eMMC CID, and both the fixed length and the raw-CID layout
are baked into its key derivation.

Two things stand in the way of reusing that same, unmodified OP-TEE flow
for UFS RPMB:

  1. On a cold boot the very first frame sent to the RPMB well-known LU
     comes back with a power-on UNIT ATTENTION (ASC 0x29), which the SCSI
     core reports rather than retries. RPMB has no earlier guaranteed
     access that could clear the condition first, so RPMB fails on every
     power cycle. Patch 1 asks the SCSI core to retry the power-on UNIT
     ATTENTION on the RPMB WLUN.

  2. The UFS RPMB id is "<device_id>-R<region>", which is variable length
     and longer than 16 bytes. Passing it verbatim would tie the derived
     key to a length OP-TEE does not expect and diverge from the fixed
     eMMC CID ABI. Patch 2 hashes it into a fixed 16-byte dev_id with
     blake2b, keeping the key stable and unique per region while matching
     the eMMC CID layout OP-TEE relies on. The hash algorithm and input
     string are thus part of the key-derivation ABI and must stay stable.

With both patches, UFS RPMB is functional from the first access after a
cold boot and derives keys through the existing eMMC-style OP-TEE flow,
(requires minimal OP-TEE changes pending on the CID proposal done here).

v4:
  * ufs: rpmb: retry power-on UNIT ATTENTION on the RPMB WLUN: open-code
    the power-on ASC 0x29 (with a naming comment) as the rest of the SCSI
    tree does, instead of a UFS_RPMB_ASC_POWER_ON define; add a
    UFS_RPMB_UA_RETRIES define for the retry count; reworded the commit
    message.
  * ufs: rpmb: use a fixed-length RPMB dev_id: reworded the commit
    message; no functional change.

v3:
  * ufs: rpmb: use a fixed-length RPMB dev_id: hash into a stack buffer
    instead of a kzalloc'd one; rpmb_dev_register() copies dev_id, so the
    heap allocation and its cleanup were unnecessary.

v2:
  * ufs: rpmb: replace blake2s with blake2b so that the same support
    can be added to u-boot (CRYPTO_LIB_BLAKE2B)
  * added links to U-boot and OP-TEE changes.

v1:
  * ufs: rpmb: retry power-on UNIT ATTENTION on the RPMB WLUN:
     - fix using uses SCMD_FAILURE_ASC_ANY to retry any Unit Attention
     - fix unused variable
  * ufs: rpmb: use a fixed-length RPMB dev_id
     - fix selecting a non-existent Kconfig symbol

[PATCH v4 1/2] ufs: rpmb: retry power-on UNIT ATTENTION on the RPMB WLUN

[Jorge Ramirez-Ortiz]

After a power cycle, the first command sent to any UFS logical unit
completes with CHECK CONDITION reporting a power-on UNIT ATTENTION.
The SCSI core surfaces this condition to the caller rather than
retrying it.

For the RPMB well-known LU the first command after boot is the first
RPMB frame, and RPMB has no earlier, guaranteed access that could clear
the condition beforehand. The power-on UNIT ATTENTION therefore reaches
RPMB and fails that first frame, breaking RPMB on every cold boot.

The RPMB WLUN needs the power-on UNIT ATTENTION to be retried so that
RPMB works from the very first access after a power cycle.

[PATCH v4 2/2] ufs: rpmb: use a fixed-length RPMB dev_id

[Jorge Ramirez-Ortiz]

The RPMB authentication key is derived from the dev_id handed to the
RPMB subsystem. OP-TEE implements the eMMC RPMB flow, where the dev_id
is the eMMC CID: a fixed 16-byte value the key derivation depends on.

The UFS RPMB id is "<device_id>-R<region>", which is variable length
and longer than 16 bytes. Handing it to the RPMB subsystem as-is would
tie the derived key to a length OP-TEE does not expect and diverge from
the fixed-CID eMMC ABI, forcing OP-TEE to be taught about
variable-length UFS ids.

A fixed 16-byte dev_id is needed so the derived key stays stable and
unique per region while matching the eMMC CID layout OP-TEE relies on,
keeping the key-derivation ABI identical with no OP-TEE change. The
reduction to a fixed 16 bytes must also be reproducible by the
bootloaders (such as U-Boot) that derive the same dev_id.
