SubjectRe: [PATCH v5 1/2] PCI: ACPI: Support Microsoft's "DmaProperty"
In subject,

PCI/ACPI: ...

would be consistent with previous history (at least things coming
through the PCI tree :)).

Here's a more specific link (could probably be referenced below to
avoid cluttering the text here):

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/pci/dsd-for-pcie-root-ports#identifying-internal-pcie-ports-accessible-to-users-and-requiring-dma-protection

Same semantics as what?

The MS description of "ExternalFacingPort" says:

This ACPI object enables the operating system to identify externally
exposed PCIe hierarchies, such as Thunderbolt.

and "DmaProperty" says:

This ACPI object enables the operating system to identify internal
PCIe hierarchies that are easily accessible by users (such as,
Laptop M.2 PCIe slots accessible by way of a latch) and require
protection by the OS Kernel DMA Protection mechanism.

I don't really understand why they called out "laptop M.2 PCIe slots"
here. Is the idea that those are more accessible than a standard
internal PCIe slot? Seems like a pretty small distinction to me.

I can understand your example of internal network devices adding an
attack surface. But I don't see how "DmaProperty" helps identify
those. Wouldn't a NIC in a standard internal PCIe slot add the same
attack surface?

I try to avoid function names like *_check_*() because they don't give
any hint about whether there's a side effect or what direction things
are going. I prefer things that return a value or make sense when
used as a predicate. Maybe something like this?

int pci_dev_has_dma_property(struct pci_dev *dev)

dev->untrusted |= pci_dev_has_dma_property(pci_dev);

The MS web page says a _DSD with this property must be implemented in
the Root Port device scope, but we don't enforce that here. We *do*
enforce it in pci_acpi_set_untrusted(). Shouldn't we do the same
here?

We currently look at three properties from the same _DSD:

DmaProperty
ExternalFacingPort
HotPlugSupportInD3

For "HotPlugSupportInD3", we check that "value == 1". For
"ExternalFacingPort", we check that it's non-zero. The MS doc isn't
explicit about the values, but shows "1" in the sample ASL. I think
we should handle all three cases the same.

The first two use device_property_read_u8(); the last uses
acpi_dev_get_property(). Again, I think they should all be the same.

acpi_dev_get_property() is easier for me to read because there are
slightly fewer layers of abstraction between _DSD and
acpi_dev_get_property().

But IIUC, device_property_read_u8() works for either ACPI or DT
properties, and maybe there is interest in using this for DT systems.
None of these appear in any in-tree DTs, but maybe it is important to
handle these in DTs?

If that's the case, this code would no longer be specific to ACPI and
should be moved to somewhere that's compiled even when CONFIG_ACPI
isn't set.
