After an overall look at the APIs, following are some initial comments:
- Is there any reason to have the edk2 specific StandaloneMM stack in
Linux to communicate with OP-TEE pseudo TA?
- I think the OP-TEE pseudo TA should be able to expose a rather
generic invoke commands such as:
TEE_EFI_GET_VARIABLE
TEE_EFI_GET_NEXT_VARIABLE
TEE_EFI_SET_VARIABLE
So it should no longer be tied to StMM stack and other TEE
implementations can re-use the abstracted interface to communicate
with its corresponding secure storage TA.
