This patch brings 3 reworked/new uevent changes:
* All AP uevents caused by an ap card or queue device now carry an
additional uevent env value MODE=<accel|cca|ep11>. Here is an
example:
KERNEL[1267.301292] add /devices/ap/card0a (ap)
ACTION=add
DEVPATH=/devices/ap/card0a
SUBSYSTEM=ap
DEVTYPE=ap_card
DEV_TYPE=000D
MODALIAS=ap:t0D
MODE=ep11 <- this is new
SEQNUM=1095
This is true for bind, unbind, add, remove, and change uevents
related to ap card or ap queue devices.
* On a change of the soft online attribute on a zcrypt queue or card
device a new CHANGE uevent is sent with an env value ONLINE=<0|1>.
Example uevent:
KERNEL[613.067531] change /devices/ap/card09/09.0011 (ap)
ACTION=change
DEVPATH=/devices/ap/card09/09.0011
SUBSYSTEM=ap
ONLINE=0 <- this is new
DEVTYPE=ap_queue
DRIVER=cex4queue
MODE=cca
SEQNUM=1070
- On a change of the config state of an zcrypt card device a new
CHANGE uevent is sent with an env value CONFIG=<0|1>.
Example uevent:
KERNEL[876.258680] change /devices/ap/card09 (ap)
ACTION=change
DEVPATH=/devices/ap/card09
SUBSYSTEM=ap
CONFIG=0 <- this is new
DEVTYPE=ap_card
DRIVER=cex4card
DEV_TYPE=000D
MODALIAS=ap:t0D
MODE=cca
SEQNUM=1073
Setting a card config on/off causes the dependent queue devices to
follow the config state change and thus uevents informing about the
config state change for the queue devices are also emitted.

The zcrypt api provides a new function to wait until the zcrypt
api is operational:
int zcrypt_wait_api_operational(void);
The AP bus scan and the binding of ap devices to device drivers is
an asynchronous job. This function waits until these initial jobs
are done and so the zcrypt api should be ready to serve crypto
requests - if there are resources available. The function uses an
internal timeout of 60s. The very first caller will either wait for
ap bus bindings complete or the timeout happens. This state will be
remembered for further callers which will only be blocked until a
decision is made (timeout or bindings complete).

Introduce a way to specify additional debug flags with an crpyto
request to be able to trigger certain failures within the zcrypt
device drivers and/or ap core code.
This failure injection possibility is only enabled with a kernel debug
build CONFIG_ZCRYPT_DEBUG) and should never be available on a regular
kernel running in production environment.
Details:
* The ioctl(ICARSAMODEXPO) get's a struct ica_rsa_modexpo. If the
leftmost bit of the 32 bit unsigned int inputdatalength field is
set, the uppermost 16 bits are separated and used as debug flag
value. The process is checked to have the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability
enabled or EPERM is returned.
* The ioctl(ICARSACRT) get's a struct ica_rsa_modexpo_crt. If the
leftmost bit of the 32 bit unsigned int inputdatalength field is set,
the uppermost 16 bits are separated and used als debug flag
value. The process is checked to have the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability
enabled or EPERM is returned.
* The ioctl(ZSECSENDCPRB) used to send CCA CPRBs get's a struct
ica_xcRB. If the leftmost bit of the 32 bit unsigned int status
field is set, the uppermost 16 bits of this field are used as debug
flag value. The process is checked to have the CAP_SYS_ADMIN
capability enabled or EPERM is returned.
* The ioctl(ZSENDEP11CPRB) used to send EP11 CPRBs get's a struct
ep11_urb. If the leftmost bit of the 64 bit unsigned int req_len
field is set, the uppermost 16 bits of this field are used as debug
flag value. The process is checked to have the CAP_SYS_ADMIN
capability enabled or EPERM is returned.
So it is possible to send an additional 16 bit value to the zcrypt API
to be used to carry a failure injection command which may trigger
special behavior within the zcrypt API and layers below. This 16 bit
value is for the rest of the test referred as 'fi command' for Failure
Injection.
The lower 8 bits of the fi command construct a numerical argument in
the range of 1-255 and is the 'fi action' to be performed with the
request or the resulting reply:
* 0x00 (all requests): No failure injection action but flags may be
provided which may affect the processing of the request or reply.
* 0x01 (only CCA CPRBs): The CPRB's agent_ID field is set to
'FF'. This results in an reply code 0x90 (Transport-Protocol
Failure).
* 0x02 (only CCA CPRBs): After the APQN to send to has been chosen,
the domain field within the CPRB is overwritten with value 99 to
enforce an reply with RY 0x8A.
* 0x03 (all requests): At NQAP invocation the invalid qid value 0xFF00
is used causing an response code of 0x01 (AP queue not valid).
The upper 8 bits of the fi command may carry bit flags which may
influence the processing of an request or response:
* 0x01: No retry. If this bit is set, the usual loop in the zcrypt API
which retries an CPRB up to 10 times when the lower layers return
with EAGAIN is abandoned after the first attempt to send the CPRB.
* 0x02: Toggle special. Toggles the special bit on this request. This
should result in an reply code RY~0x41 and result in an ioctl
failure with errno EINVAL.
This failure injection possibilities may get some further extensions
in the future. As of now this is a starting point for Continuous Test
and Integration to trigger some failures and watch for the reaction of
the ap bus and zcrypt device driver code.

Move the creating and disposal of the struct ap_message one
level up the call chain. The ap message was constructed in the
calling functions in msgtype50 and msgtype6 but only for the
ica rsa messages. For CCA and EP11 CPRBs the ap message struct
is created in the zcrypt api functions.
This patch moves the construction of the ap message struct into
the functions zcrypt_rsa_modexpo and zcrypt_rsa_crt. So now all
the 4 zcrypt api functions zcrypt_rsa_modexpo, zcrypt_rsa_crt,
zcrypt_send_cprb and zcrypt_send_ep11_cprb appear and act
similar.
There are no functional changes coming with this patch.
However, the availability of the ap_message struct has
advantages which will be needed by a follow up patch.

Introduce a new internal struct zcrypt_track with an retry counter
field and a last return code field. Fill and update these fields at
certain points during processing of an request/reply. This tracking
info is then used to
- avoid trying to resend the message forever. Now each message is
tried to be send TRACK_AGAIN_MAX (currently 10) times and then the
ioctl returns to userspace with errno EAGAIN.
- avoid trying to resend the message on the very same card/domain. If
possible (more than one APQN with same quality) don't use the very
same qid as the previous attempt when again scheduling the request.
This is done by adding penalty weight values when the dispatching
takes place. There is a penalty TRACK_AGAIN_CARD_WEIGHT_PENALTY for
using the same card as previously and another penalty define
TRACK_AGAIN_QUEUE_WEIGHT_PENALTY to be considered when the same qid
as the previous sent attempt is calculated. Both values make it
harder to choose the very same card/domain but not impossible. For
example when only one APQN is available a resend can only address the
very same APQN.
There are some more ideas for the future to extend the use of this
tracking information. For example the last response code at NQAP and
DQAP could be stored there, giving the possibility to extended tracing
and debugging about requests failing to get processed properly.

No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.

Rework the debug feature calls and initialization. There
are now two debug feature entries used by the zcrypt code.
The first is 'ap' with all the AP bus related stuff and the
second is 'zcrypt' with all the zcrypt and devices and
driver related entries. However, there isn't much traffic on
both debug features. The ap bus code emits only some debug
info and for zcrypt devices on appearance and disappearance
there is an entry written.
The new dbf invocations use the sprintf buffer layout,
whereas the old implementation used the ascii dbf buffer.
There are now 5*8=40 bytes used for each entry, resulting in
5 parameters per call. As the sprintf buffer needs a format
string the first parameter provides this and so up to 4 more
parameters can be used. Alltogehter the new layout should be

card and queue drivers. The new /sys layout is as follows:
/sys/bus/ap

<xx>.<yyyy> -> ../../../devices/ap/card<xx>/<xx>.<yyyy>
...
card<xx> -> ../../../devices/ap/card<xx>
...
drivers
<drv>card
card<xx> -> ../../../../devices/ap/card<xx>
<drv>queue
<xx>.<yyyy> -> ../../../../devices/ap/card<xx>/<xx>.<yyyy>
...
/sys/devices/ap
card<xx>
<xx>.<yyyy>
driver -> ../../../../bus/ap/drivers/<zzz>queue
...
driver -> ../../../bus/ap/drivers/<drv>card
...
The two digit <xx> field is the card number, the four digit <yyyy>
field is the queue number and <drv> is the name of the device driver,
e.g. "cex4".
For compatability /sys/bus/ap/card<xx> for the old layout has to exist,
including the attributes that used to reside there.

ap_bus and zcrypt_api assumed module information to always be present
and initialisation to be done in module loading order (symbol
dependencies). These assumptions don't hold if zcrypt is built-in;
THIS_MODULE will be NULL in this case and init call order is linker
order, i.e. Makefile order.
Fix initialisation order by ordering the object files in the Makefile
according to their dependencies, like the module loader would do.
Fix message type registration by using a dedicated "name" field rather
than piggy-backing on the module ("owner") information. There's no
change to the requirement that module name and msgtype name are
identical. The existing name macros are used.
We don't need any special code for dealing with the drivers being
built-in; the generic module support code already does the right
thing.

The user space interface of the zcrypt device driver implements the old
user space interface as defined by the old z90crypt driver. Everything
is there, the /dev/z90crypt misc character device, all the lovely ioctls
and the /proc file. Even writing to the z90crypt proc file to configure
the crypto device still works. It stands to reason to remove the proc
write function someday since a much cleaner configuration via the sysfs
is now available.
The ap bus device drivers register crypto cards to the zcrypt user
space interface. The request router of the user space interface
picks one of the registered cards based on the predicted latency
for the request and calls the driver via a callback found in the
zcrypt_ops of the device. The request router only knows which
operations the card can do and the minimum / maximum number of bits
a request can have.
