This patchset adds support for Arm FF-A (Arm Firmware Framework for Armv8-A v1.0).
FF-A support is generic by design and can be used by any Arm platform.
The features added are as follows:
1/ FF-A bus driver 2/ armffa command 3/ FF-A Sandbox driver 4/ FF-A Sandbox test cases 5/ FF-A MM communication
The suggested design considers FF-A as a discoverable bus. The Secure World is considered as one entity to communicate with using the FF-A bus. FF-A communication is handled by one device and one instance (the bus). This FF-A driver takes care of all the interactions between Normal world and Secure World.
The Secure World firmware runs under TrustZone HW (such as Optee). The same approach was followed in the FF-A driver in Linux kernel (https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/driv...))

I don't see a changelog compared with v1. Are any of the comments there addressed? Thanks.
